00:00:05.23\00:00:30.26
Romans 8:14-17 says "Those
who are led by the spirit of God
00:00:30.29\00:00:35.26
are the children of God."
00:00:35.30\00:00:36.80
The spirit that you
receive does not make you slaves
00:00:36.83\00:00:39.60
so that you live in fear again.
Rather the spirit you received
00:00:39.63\00:00:43.00
brought about your adoption
of Son-ship and by Him we cry
00:00:43.04\00:00:46.84
Abba, Father. The spirit Himself
testifies with our spirit that
00:00:46.88\00:00:51.11
we are God's children. Now if we
are children, then we are heirs.
00:00:51.15\00:00:54.82
Heirs in God and co-heirs
with Christ if indeed we share
00:00:54.85\00:00:58.55
in His sufferings in order
that we may also share in His
00:00:58.59\00:01:01.52
glory. Adoption. A judge utters
a few words pounds his gavel
00:01:01.56\00:01:08.66
on the desk and a
child receives a new family.
00:01:08.70\00:01:11.97
Spiritually speaking adoption
is the gracious act of God
00:01:12.00\00:01:16.17
wherein He makes justified
sinners His beloved children.
00:01:16.20\00:01:21.31
To be adopted is to receive
God's name and to have access
00:01:21.34\00:01:26.45
to God's throne, to His pity,
His protection, His provision
00:01:26.48\00:01:31.02
His discipline, and His
promise to never abandon us.
00:01:31.05\00:01:35.16
Once we believe in Christ
and we commit to spend our life
00:01:35.19\00:01:39.06
living for God,
we belong to Him.
00:01:39.09\00:01:41.80
That's a good feeling, right?
00:01:41.83\00:01:43.83
Jesus my Lord
will love me forever,
00:01:46.13\00:01:50.54
From Him no power
of evil can sever.
00:01:50.57\00:01:55.48
He gave His life
to ransom my soul
00:01:55.51\00:02:00.52
Now I belong to Him.
00:02:00.55\00:02:06.92
Now I belong to
Jesus Jesus belongs to me
00:02:06.96\00:02:17.40
Not for the years of
time alone, but for eternity.
00:02:17.43\00:02:30.45
Oh Lord, thank you for giving
us the assurance of freedom
00:02:30.48\00:02:36.99
and for your
amazing love for us.
00:02:37.02\00:02:40.56
We thank you in Jesus name. Amen
00:02:40.59\00:02:43.46
Heavenly Father,
You are our Almighty God
00:02:43.49\00:02:49.70
yet you call us your children,
because Jesus redeemed us
00:02:49.73\00:02:53.47
from the bondage of
sin that we might receive
00:02:53.50\00:02:56.44
the adoption as
your sons and daughters.
00:02:56.47\00:02:59.77
What a great and
wonderful gift you have given us
00:02:59.81\00:03:02.68
through Jesus our redeemer.
00:03:02.71\00:03:04.48
You've sent forth the spirit
of your Son into our hearts
00:03:04.51\00:03:08.18
allowing us to cry out
to you our loving Father
00:03:08.22\00:03:12.02
Oh Father, God, we come
to you seeking mercy and help
00:03:12.05\00:03:16.36
for our brothers and sisters
affected and suffering because
00:03:16.39\00:03:20.50
of this Covid virus and
all other diseases Lord.
00:03:20.53\00:03:24.20
We pray for healing, for
strength, for restoration
00:03:24.23\00:03:28.20
to good health. Lord, we also
pray for the outpouring of the
00:03:28.24\00:03:31.71
Holy Spirit heal us spiritually
so that we're ready for Jesus'
00:03:31.74\00:03:36.85
glorious and soon return.
Oh Lord, we are looking forward
00:03:36.88\00:03:41.12
to life with you forever
in heaven and the new earth.
00:03:41.15\00:03:45.29
Lord, we love you. We
pray this in Jesus name. Amen!
00:03:45.32\00:03:49.62
I thank you Father, I
thank you for my adoption,
00:03:49.66\00:03:55.96
my adoption into
the church family.
00:03:56.00\00:03:58.37
I thank you Father that
you no longer see who I was
00:03:58.40\00:04:02.60
but you see who I am
and you see who I will be.
00:04:02.64\00:04:06.17
Father, I thank you for
your mercy and compassion
00:04:06.21\00:04:10.08
and I ask Father that you show
the same mercy and compassion
00:04:10.11\00:04:14.12
to others, my brothers
and sisters who seek you out
00:04:14.15\00:04:17.89
and love you Father. That
they too might be adopted into
00:04:17.92\00:04:21.76
the church and into Your
family. I thank you Lord for
00:04:21.79\00:04:26.19
hearing my prayers.
In Jesus name. Amen!
00:04:26.23\00:04:29.43
Once I was lost in sins
degradation. Jesus came down
00:04:34.40\00:04:42.28
to bring me salvation. He
lifted me from sorrow and shame
00:04:42.31\00:04:51.52
and now I belong to
Him. Now I belong to Jesus,
00:04:51.55\00:05:02.83
Jesus belongs to me. Not
for the years of time alone,
00:05:02.86\00:05:12.54
but for eternity.
00:05:12.57\00:05:20.58
Dear Abba Father,
Since creation you claim us
00:05:20.62\00:05:27.36
as your children. You
never wanted that to change
00:05:27.39\00:05:30.59
but sin entered your perfect
world and spoiled your plan.
00:05:30.63\00:05:34.73
and our relationship. Yet
you continue to love us and
00:05:34.76\00:05:39.57
called us back. Jesus lived a
sinless live and offered Himself
00:05:39.60\00:05:44.67
as a repairer of
the broken family ties.
00:05:44.71\00:05:47.88
Thank you for making it possible
through adoption to once again
00:05:47.91\00:05:53.52
be Your child. Thank you
in the name of our big Brother
00:05:53.55\00:05:57.72
Jesus. Amen!
00:05:57.75\00:05:59.72
Father, I come to You again
today and thank you for your
00:05:59.75\00:06:05.89
spirit of adoption Father.
The fact that you chose us
00:06:05.93\00:06:09.73
to be adopted into your
family it's just amazing Father.
00:06:09.76\00:06:14.07
The fact that you have redeemed
us so that we can receive
00:06:14.10\00:06:17.04
that adoption as sons.
Father, we are so blessed by you
00:06:17.07\00:06:21.64
Bless with all spiritual
blessings in heavenly places
00:06:21.68\00:06:25.58
in Christ. And Father,
you chose us that we would be
00:06:25.61\00:06:29.45
sons not just born naturally
Father, but you have adopted us,
00:06:29.48\00:06:33.96
you picked us to be in your
family. The love that you have
00:06:33.99\00:06:37.76
for us is amazing and I
thank you so much Father,
00:06:37.79\00:06:41.36
I love you so much and I call
out to you Abba, Abba Father.
00:06:41.40\00:06:47.10
Dear God, Thank
you for the blessing of
00:06:47.14\00:06:52.54
adoption. Thank you for
the men and women who have
00:06:52.57\00:06:56.08
opened their homes to
those who don't have a family
00:06:56.11\00:06:58.55
to call their own. I pray
for those who are still looking
00:06:58.58\00:07:01.78
to find a place to
belong. That you will place them
00:07:01.82\00:07:04.69
where they need to be.
Where they will be cared for
00:07:04.72\00:07:07.46
and loved. We thank you for
everything you have done for us
00:07:07.49\00:07:11.93
and we ask these
things in Jesus name. Amen!
00:07:11.96\00:07:14.73
Joy floods my soul
for Jesus has saved me
00:07:20.24\00:07:25.27
freed from my sin
that long had enslaved me
00:07:25.31\00:07:32.18
His precious
blood He gave to redeem
00:07:32.21\00:07:39.49
now I belong to Him.
00:07:39.52\00:07:45.39
Now I belong to
Jesus, Jesus belongs to me
00:07:45.43\00:07:56.14
not for the years of
time alone, but for eternity.
00:07:56.17\00:08:11.79
Loving Father when I
think of how much you love me
00:08:11.82\00:08:16.12
to call me your child and
when I think of telling others
00:08:16.16\00:08:21.00
that they can be your child
also, what joy that fills me.
00:08:21.03\00:08:27.84
Thank you Lord, that being
yours and having you as a Father
00:08:27.87\00:08:35.14
it prompts me and encourages me
to worship and to live my life
00:08:35.18\00:08:41.88
in a manner that
pleases and honors you.
00:08:41.92\00:08:46.55
Father, I lift up men and women
who didn't grow up with good
00:08:46.59\00:08:51.09
relationships
with their fathers.
00:08:51.13\00:08:52.73
For those who are distant
from their earthly fathers.
00:08:52.76\00:08:56.40
Holy Spirit I asked that
you bring healing to their minds
00:08:56.43\00:09:01.37
and their hearts. Fill
the emptiness in their hearts
00:09:01.40\00:09:04.71
with the tender
understanding of adoption.
00:09:04.74\00:09:09.98
Thank you Father for the
hope we have through adoption.
00:09:10.01\00:09:15.98
Thank you for the healing,
thank you for the inheritance
00:09:16.02\00:09:19.55
Thank you for your
presence that lives within us
00:09:19.59\00:09:23.76
because of your adoption and
Lord, I even thank you for the
00:09:23.79\00:09:28.43
discipline that
reminds us of how much you love
00:09:28.46\00:09:33.50
and care for us. We are your
children, you are our Father.
00:09:33.54\00:09:40.41
Right now I just want to pray
for a very serious situation
00:09:40.44\00:09:48.75
for missing children.
Father you know where these
00:09:48.78\00:09:53.82
missing souls are. God
I ask that you would just
00:09:53.86\00:09:59.59
give peace of mind to the
parents, the hurting families
00:09:59.63\00:10:06.60
and Father I pray for those who
are holding the missing child,
00:10:06.63\00:10:16.81
the captors. God, I pray
that you would stir their hearts
00:10:16.85\00:10:24.82
to release those missing
children back to their families.
00:10:24.85\00:10:28.89
And God, bring restoration,
Lord bring closure and healing
00:10:28.92\00:10:40.84
and Lord I pray for peace
in our homes, in our families.
00:10:40.87\00:10:47.41
Lord, I pray for grandparents
who are raising their
00:10:47.44\00:10:56.15
grandchildren. Father
I ask that you will give
00:10:56.18\00:11:01.19
them strength and
wisdom and courage and love,
00:11:01.22\00:11:09.26
great understanding. Father
for those who are encountering
00:11:09.30\00:11:20.04
physical ailments,
disease and viruses.
00:11:20.08\00:11:27.38
God, this world is such
an ugly place, so many people
00:11:27.42\00:11:34.12
are hurting and sick. Lord, I
thank you that you have created
00:11:34.16\00:11:42.13
our bodies to mend,to heal.
We know Lord that ultimately
00:11:42.16\00:11:51.37
it is your mighty
touch that does the healing.
00:11:51.41\00:11:55.84
So I pray Oh, God, that
you will let healing rise
00:11:55.88\00:12:01.18
in the lives of the sick. For
those who are facing financial
00:12:01.22\00:12:10.96
needs, I pray Lord that
you would be a provider.
00:12:10.99\00:12:16.36
For those who have
cars who need maintenance,
00:12:16.40\00:12:23.10
those who have houses that
need upkeep and they're finding
00:12:23.14\00:12:29.84
themselves without
provision to do so. Lord I pray
00:12:29.88\00:12:34.72
that you would please provide
for those who need finances
00:12:34.75\00:12:44.03
to cover medical expenses.
Father, I'm asking on you
00:12:44.06\00:12:48.43
to provide in a miraculous way.
00:12:48.46\00:12:54.04
Father God, thank you that
you are faithful, you are our
00:12:54.07\00:13:01.81
Father. John 1:12 reminds
us but as many who receive Him,
00:13:01.84\00:13:10.79
to them, He gave the
right to become children of God
00:13:10.82\00:13:14.82
to those who
believe on his name.
00:13:14.86\00:13:17.03
And 1John 3:1 says "Behold
what manner of love the Father
00:13:17.06\00:13:21.43
has bestowed on us. That we
should be called children of God
00:13:21.46\00:13:25.77
therefore the world does
not know us because it did not
00:13:25.80\00:13:29.50
know Him. But we
belong to Him, right?
00:13:29.54\00:13:34.11
Now I belong to
Jesus, Jesus belongs to me,
00:13:34.14\00:13:40.98
not for the years of
time alone, but for eternity.
