See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him. -1 John 3:1(NLT)
RECOGNIZING YOU ARE GOD’S CHILD
A poem and essay by ILMA
God created all things including all of human race
Do you give him credit for it and give him praise?
Our heavenly Father loves us and calls us his children
Do you believe in this truth that can lead us to heaven?
When you recognize that you are his beloved child
You overcome this world and learn to be kind
The world is not your destiny, the Lord is
Stop denying the truth, face it because you are his.

One of the things that the enemy steals from us is our identity. The devil uses different strategies to twist our minds and heart because he does not want us to know that we really belong to God. He will lose his power when we recognize that we are a true child of God. He knows that we will be victorious and not be held in bondage if we know our true identity in Christ. He won’t be able to keep us imprisoned. Why not claim and declare the truth that you are a child of God, made in his image? It frees you from lies.

PRAYER

REFLECTION
Why is it important to claim that you belong to the Lord?

Follow only what is good. Remember that those who do good prove that they are God’s children, and those who do evil prove that they do not know God. – 3 John 11 (NLT)
PROOF THAT YOU’RE GOD’S CHILD
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you claim that you are God’s child?
Do you seek him and constantly abide?
Proof that you’re his child is if you do good
You don’t know God if you don’t live in his truth.
Always do what is right and follow Jesus’ ways
You will never be wrong and not be swayed
You are a child of God if you hunger and seek him
You are his if you do his will and avoid sin.

When you are in relationship with someone, don’t you do things for this beloved to prove your love for him or her? Would you do something that you know would offend your partner if you are in an honest and committed relationship? I am sure that you won’t purposely do something to hurt them. When you claim that you love someone, you act on it and show him or her that you follow through your commitment. Our relationship with God is no different. He expects us to follow through with our commitment with him. How would you feel if God forsakes you or purposely offend you? We prove that we are his child if we do good.
PRAYER
Lord, protect me from being tempted to do evil but always do good.
REFLECTION
How do you prove your love to Jesus on a practical basis?
