In this mad, fallen world.
I could be alone.
Even if will be surrounded with lots of friends and relatives or families,
emptiness will never stop poking me.
But alas!
I kept praying Jesus to guide me always. No matter what.
And forward to this day, a veil has been taken out.
I realised, you could do whatever you like in this world (I'm talking about good and positive things here. Or if you've done something as a mistake. Do not worry. As long as you keep Jesus in your heart. He will fix it for you) for the truth that sets you free from all fears is knowing that God is your heavenly Father and He wants a solid and unshakeable relationship with you.
If you are not there yet,
do not be frustrated. We, as Christians are always work in progess.
I suggest, you ask Jesus to always guide you. Do not always depende on feelings if He is there or not cuz feelings deceive.
Sharing another powerful devotional from Joseph Prince.
Be blessed everyone!
God sent forth His Son…to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons.
Galatians 4:4–5
A Matter Of Spirit
By Joseph Prince
As an heir of God, you have a rich inheritance. All the blessings of your heavenly Father are yours!
“Well, Pastor Prince, if it’s true that I am an heir of God because I’m His son, then why am I still not seeing the blessings?”
I asked the Lord the same question once. I said, “Lord, why is it that there are believers who don’t seem to be blessed despite the fact that they are Your sons and heirs?” The Lord said this to me, “It’s a matter of spirit.” Then, He pointed me to Romans 8:15, NIV—“For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, ‘Abba, Father.’” He was telling me that walking in His blessings has to do with having a spirit of sonship.
How does the spirit of sonship operate? By the cry, “Abba, Father!” The Holy Spirit left the word Abba, meaning “Daddy” or “Papa,” untranslated in Romans 8:15 so that we will know that God wants us to have an intimate relationship with Him. Seeing God as Daddy and calling Him “Daddy” or “Papa” removes any distance and breaks down every barrier between you and God. It brings you into an intimate relationship with God and that’s how the spirit of sonship operates.
So beloved, have a spirit of sonship. Don’t see God as an impersonal, distant being who doesn’t really care how you feel. He isn’t just Almighty God, He is also your Daddy! Have this sense of intimacy with Him all the time and start to walk in a greater measure of your Daddy’s blessings!
