Shalom,

We are reading Galatains 4 in our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan for today. Verses 4-9 are very important!

4 But when the proper time had fully come, God sent His Son, born of a woman, born subject to [the regulations of] the Law, 5 To purchase the freedom of (to ransom, to redeem, to atone for) those who were subject to the Law, that we might be adopted and have sonship conferred upon us [and be recognized as God’s sons]. 6 And because you [really] are [His] sons, God has sent the [Holy] Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, Abba (Father)! Father! 7 Therefore, you are no longer a slave (bond servant) but a son; and if a son, then [it follows that you are] an heir by the aid of God, through Christ. 8 But at that previous time, when you had not come to be acquainted with and understand and know the true God, you [Gentiles] were in bondage to gods who by their very nature could not be gods at all [gods that really did not exist]. 9 Now, however, that you have come to be acquainted with and understand and know [the true] God, or rather to be understood and known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and beggarly and worthless elementary things [of all religions before Christ came], whose slaves you once more want to become?

Paul was scolding the Galatian church for not recognizing their sonship and acting like sons, but playing the part of mere slaves again! If we refuse to recognize who we are, we will never be able to walk in the light of that TRUTH! Then we will be rendered powerless by a lying enemy! Find out what the Word of God has to say about YOU and dare to believe it! Now let's get out there and act like it! Here is Hillsong Worship with "Who You Say I Am":

Shalom  in Him!
