Today I want to share Joesph Prince's "Grace Inspirations".
LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON
Romans 8:16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit
that we are children of God,
Everything produces after its kind. Dogs give birth to
puppies, cats give birth to kittens and tigers give birth to tiger cubs. In the
same manner, when you are born again, you are born of God. You are a child of
the Most High God. He is your Father and He doesn’t see you in the flesh. He
sees you in the Spirit. And His Spirit bears witness with your spirit that you
are His child.
So when the devil comes to you and says, “Well, your father
died of cancer, his father died of cancer and you are going to die of cancer
too, just like your father,” just know in your heart that you are like
your Father—your Father in heaven! Declare, “I am a child of the Most High God.
He doesn’t have cancer, so neither do I!”
My friend, when you are born of God, you are born to win.
Because your Daddy God is a winner, you are one too! When you wake up in the
morning, say, “I am a winner because God is a winner!”
When you say that you cannot afford to buy something that
you need, you have forgotten which family you now belong to. You have been born
again into a very rich family—your Father owns every beast in the forest and
the cattle on a thousand hills (see Psalm 50:10)! You have a Daddy God in
heaven who is well able to supply all your needs (see Philippians 4:19). Even
if there are areas of lack in your life now, don’t worry. Just ask God for the
supply because your heavenly Father loves you and wants to supply your needs.
When someone talks to you about a problem and asks, “What
are we going to do about it?” you should say, “Don’t worry. Let’s talk to Daddy
God about it. It is not a problem for Him, so it will not be a problem for us.”
Beloved, even when all around you is going under, your Daddy
God is still the same heavenly Father who kept Noah’s world afloat, his loved
ones safe and sound, and his possessions intact. Your world will never go under
because you are God’s beloved child!
Shalom in Him
