August 28 Devotion - Child of God

Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—

أَمَّا الَّذِينَ قَبِلُوهُ، أَيِ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا بِاسْمِهِ، فَقَدْ مَنَحَهُمُ الْحَقَّ فِي أَنْ يَصِيرُوا أَوْلاَدَ اللهِ،

John 1:12 

How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.

تَأَمَّلُوا مَا أَعْظَمَ الْمَحَبَّةَ الَّتِي أَحَبَّنَا بِهَا الآبُ حَتَّى صِرْنَا نُدْعَى «أَوْلاَدَ اللهِ»، وَنَحْنُ أَوْلاَدُهُ حَقّاً. وَلَكِنْ، بِمَا أَنَّ أَهْلَ الْعَالَمِ لاَ يَعْرِفُونَ اللهَ، فَهُمْ لاَ يَعْرِفُونَنَا.

1 John 3

I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:

Abba Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings and Your deep, everlasting and inseparable love. Thank You my heavenly Father that You love me so much that You have given Your only begotten son Jesus to die for my sins so that I can be a child of God. I receive You Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour and believe in Your name. Help me to see myself as You see me; a unique, irreplaceable and beloved creation with a divine and eternal plan and purpose. I hold my head up and face the world with the knowledge that I am a child of God and my Father is the King of the universe. I pray that every person will believe in Your name and become a child of God. In Jesus’ name. Amen. ‘Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.’ Ephesians 3:20-21
