Access to the Father through Christ

“For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.”
EPHESIANS 2:18 NKJV

Praise be to God for this beautiful day and for the gift of access to His presence.

Today’s scripture reminds us that it is only through Jesus Christ that we are brought near to the Father, and the Holy Spirit is the One who makes that access real in our lives. What was once impossible because of sin is now made possible through the cross of Christ.

Beloved, this means we no longer stand afar off, but we have the privilege of drawing near with boldness to the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). We can talk to our Heavenly Father at any time, not as strangers, but as children of His household.

Let us live daily with this awareness, walking in fellowship with God through the Spirit, and rejoicing in our place as His sons and daughters.

We need to answer this question individually. Am I taking full advantage of my access to the Father by spending time in prayer and fellowship with Him?

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of access to Your presence through Christ Jesus. Help me to draw near to You daily with faith and a sincere heart. May my life reflect the joy and confidence of belonging to You forever.

Honour your Father and Mother so that it will be well with you and you will live long

“Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.”
Ephesians 6:2‭-‬3 NKJV

Praise, glory and honour be unto God for this beautiful day and the opportunity to rejoice and be glad in it.

Honour thy Father and Mother so that you can tap into the blessings God has in stock for you. This scripture has its roots in Exodus 20:12 where God gave the 10 commandments to Moses. Honour your father and mother that your days May be long!

Let’s give reverence and be respectful to our fathers and mothers as the scripture urges us. Let’s keep esteeming them and holding them in the highest honour we can so the Word of God will be fulfilled in our lives.

The verse 3 of this chapter adds that after honouring our parents, we receive God’s blessings and long life too. That it will be well with us and live long here on earth.

May the Lord bless us mightily on all fronts as we honour both our physical and spiritual Fathers and Mothers. May we enjoy greater grace and the blessings of longevity that come from honouring our parents. Amen.

The Father of the Righteous greatly rejoices and is Delighted

‭Proverbs 23:24 NKJV‬
[24] The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice, And he who begets a wise child will delight in him.

Hallelujah and glory be to God for this beautiful Sunday. May we rejoice and celebrate His goodness today. Happy Father’s Day to all father figures, more grace and blessings.

The few verses leading to today’s scripture indicates the need to listen to our fathers and not to despise our mothers. It further emphasises the need to buy the truth, get wisdom, understanding and discipline.

These are key decisions and directions which when followed leads to the living of a God filled and disciplined life. The father of the child who lives in the way of the Most High God therefore pleases God and the child becomes a wise child. May we go to God for wisdom for life.

May we be children that give our Father above great joy because of the choice to live a righteous life. May we remain wise children that delight the Heavenly Father in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

A Father Loves His Children

Just as a father loves his children, So the Lord loves those who fear and worship Him [with awe-filled respect and deepest reverence].
PSALMS 103:13 AMP

Praise God for the blessings of a beautiful Sunday.

Thanks be to God our heavenly father who always bestows good things unto His children. This is premised in the love that the Lord has for His children. Are you a child of God? Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour today.

The Love of the heavenly father is shed abroad in our hearts through our earthly fathers. Fathers love their children and would go all lengths to ensure that they are catered for.

May all fathers take on the love of God and share to all not only their biological children.

May the Love of God ginger all earthly fathers so we follow God’s footsteps by loving, caring, providing and protecting in Jesus Mighty name.
