ROMANS 8:17. “And if children, then heirs; heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ; if so be that we may suffer with Him, that we may be also glorified together.” NEW THINGS. There are a lot of new things I have read about today – A new duty has been given that affects me every way. The Spirit of God is the divine Guide who will lead me – Opening up ways that bring me into a new intimacy.
There is also a new relationship when I have a new Father – As His child I respect His will and act as I ought to. Now as an heir of all things I can share with my Lord – All His blessings down here, and in the future, by His Word.
There is a glory in the future that is going to be revealed to all Through those freed from condemnation by grace He did call. The creation He made when He delivered us from sin – He will fully complete in heaven what on earth He began.
At present we only have a foretaste of things yet to come. We have received the adoption, but wait for full redemption By looking ahead through the scriptures of truth – A positive hope gives new freedom to bear fruit.
The Spirit of God does not leave me alone. He helps me to pray when I have Christ on the throne Of my life; so that when I wonder what more I should say The Spirit of God is there filling in the gaps when I pray.
“I am very thankful, O God, for the abiding Spirit of God. It gives great confidence that in every activity of life, each decision I make, each place that I go – that the Spirit of God is there to guide and bear witness to what is of God and what is not. In praying, it is really important for me to know that He is there interceding and making acceptable what would not be if it were just me and my words. I thank Thee in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
