RESTORATION TODAY
TUESDAY 27TH DECEMBER 2016
BY PASTOR DR. G.O. OLUTOLA JP.
THEME: DIVINE ADOPTION.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name?. John 1: 12.
From the very beginning, God intended to have an intimate, loving relationship with His children. One reason that Jesus Christ came to earth is for us to know and relate to God the father. The Bible tells us that Jesus is His exact representation; His words and works were the same as God's (John 5: 19; 12: 50). Therefore, when we look at the Son, we are seeing the character of our heavenly Father.
Through the Scriptures, God invites us to join His family. He took care of all the arrangements; the only thing we have to do is say yes (John 3: 16). The closest tie we can have with one another is family. At salvation, we are adopted into the Lord?s family. This relationship with our heavenly Father lasts for an eternity and provides us with support, encouragement, and love.
Besides, by calling His disciples ?friends? (John 15: 15). Jesus revealed a new aspect to their relationship, which applied to His future followers as well. Jesus Christ is a forever friend, one who will never desert or turn away from us. Once we become God?s children, His Spirit will work in us to make our family resemblance stronger and clearer in thought, word, and deed.
ACTION POINT:
The Heavenly Father invites us to join His Family through Faith in Jesus Christ.

John 15: 15; 3: 16; 5: 19; 12: 50.
