THEME: ADOPTION

Romans‬ ‭9:4‬ ‭

“the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption to sonship; theirs the divine glory, the covenants, the receiving of the law, the temple worship and the promises.”

INSIGHT
-The adoption metaphor was not lost to Israel; however, God declares that He is the Father of the nation Israel, whom He loves as His child (Isaiah 1:2), and called out of Egypt (Hosea 11:1). God spoke to Pharaoh through Moses declaring that, Israel is my firstborn son (Exodus 4:22). More specifically, God spoke through Jeremiah saying, “I am Israel’s Father and Ephraim is my firstborn son” (Jeremiah‬ ‭31:9‬). Israel’s adoption as the sons of God, and the privileges they were entitled to hereby, are symbolic to types of believers being made partakers of the divine nature by the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, and of their title to the inheritance of the kingdom of heaven, through the promise given to Abraham.

PRAYER
You are worthy Lord God Almighty, and deserve to be honored and praised. We belong to You Jesus Christ, for we are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise. Thank You for Your promises upon our lives and all our descendant’s. May Your promises come to life in our lives dear Jesus. We belong to You Jesus, thank You for loving us and choosing as kings and priests to You and we reign on earth by Your power and grace. We are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, Your own special people, that we may proclaim Your praises. Thank You for calling us out of darkness into Your marvelous light, we worship You and give You praise. May You heal all those who are sick and comfort those who are bereaved. May You lead us with Your pillar of cloud and pillar of fire to give us light in all our ways. May You hear all our prayers and answer our hearts according to Your merciful love Holy Spirit. May Your salvation reach Your people in all the nations. We exult You and bless Your holy name, now and forever. Amen

Blessed Wednesday
