“Children Of God”
Psalm 24:1; John 17:22; John 15:11; Romans 8:17
What is His, is ours by inheritance. Jesus is the One and only heir of God; but by a compassionate, forgiving God, we become joint heirs with Jesus by adoption. By faith we got in, by trusting the full and complete work of Jesus Christ our redeemer. We have right, in him, to claim all that He has. We gave up our rights here, that we may become partakers with Him there. Paradise is ours, all of the bliss and glory is ours; We can walk through the gates of pearl, stroll along the river of life, and it is ours for everlasting, because He is everlasting, and we are joined with Him. And as long as the head is alive, the body stays alive. Jesus shares all He has with His brothers and sisters. There is a crowning and rewarding day for all winners, and we are winners only through Him.
Our rewards for being conquerors are these: We are seated to the right of Jesus on his throne, The Kings Palace and all His treasures. A crown, a scepter, a robe, unmatched by any we have ever seen, and most of all His heritage is ours. Christs’ happiness consists of sharing with His own (John 17:22). “That your joy might be full” (John 15:11). We are overcomers through Christ and we will appear with Him in glory. As we are honored to be one of Gods, He is honored to call us sons, by way of His only Sons conquests. We have a place in His kingdom by what Jesus accomplished in the Atonement.
“Enter”
In royal robes, He rejoices,
Over His own, His skirts are spread;
He delights in praising voices,
From those He delivered from the dead.
His greatest joy is saying “enter,”
“Ever with Me to abide;”
Rewards we’ll receive from our mentor,
Us, who have the blood applied.

Weekly Memory Verses: 1 Peter 2:21
21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
22 Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23 Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.
