Romans 8: 14-17 Believers Are Made Sons & Daughters

For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.  For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “Abba! Father!”  The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God,  and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.

This is why we can count on God's promises.  Because we have been taken in as a child of God, He is indeed our Father and cares for us in a way that only God the Father can do and he does not withhold any good thing from us.  Unlike our earthly father who gives to us from their riches, God the Father gives to us out of His riches and nothing is hard for Him.  God is love and His love is like none other, because it is a loyal love who loves us even when our love fails.

Daily Prayer: Father, give us the faith we need to depend on you apart from our flesh.  Instill confidence in us so that we wait with a confident expectancy for all You say to come true.  In Jesus name I pray Amen.
