Hello brethren,
I want to share what I learnt from today's topic, tagged "Are we children of God? "
To be the children of God is not by force, because have created us and give us every opportunity to choose who will be our father.
There three criteria we have to pass before we become the children of God.
1Corinthians 8:6
We are all created by God, but we are not all God's children.
John 1:2-13
But to all who did receive Jesus who were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.
According to the book of Matthew 5:44
But I say unto you, love your enemies, bless those that cause you, do good to those that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you; that ye may be children of your father which is in heaven; for he make his sun rise on the evil and on the good; and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
For us to be children of God we have to be selfless, we shouldn't be selfish.
We have to live our life as example.
We have to acknowledge and understand the power of God.
Proverb 3:5
Trust in the Lord with all things heart; and learn not unto thine own understanding.
It is very hard to be serving God while you are learning in your own understanding.
Luke 9:23
And he said to them all, if any man will come after me, let him deny himself,and take up his cross daily and follow me.
To be children of God you must deny yourselves and not learn in your understanding.
