Title: Are You Using the Riches You Have?
Text:
Galatians 4:6 (HCSB)
6 And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba, Father!"
Observation:
I was reading Romans 8 recently, and I was gripped by the revelation of an amazing truth that leaped off the page, and into my heart.
The verse that leaped off the page, and into my heart was this one.
Romans 8:15 (HCSB)
15 For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father!"
What an amazing thing God has done for us when He provided the means of our redemption through Jesus.
Romans 5:1 (HCSB)
1 Therefore, since we have been declared righteous by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Every believer has the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit of God living in our heart.
'Romans 8:9 (HCSB)
9 You, however, are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, since the Spirit of God lives in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.
Do you know where you learned how to cry out to God, "Abba Father?" I tell you where; you heard it from the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit.
Galatians 4:6 (HCSB)
6 And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba, Father!"
Hallelujah! Its prayer time.
Prayer:
Father God, Abba Father, I am so thankful that the Holy Spirit spoke into my heart the words "Abba Father", and now I am able to speak them to you in prayer.
Father, thank You that the Holy Spirit enables us to yield our will to the will of God, and that He guides us on the pathway of righteousness all of the days of our life.
Father, we express our gratitude to You for all Your blessings. In the mighty name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
Isaiah 55:11 (KJV)
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
