Daddy God

Bro Kenneth Hagin said, in fact Jesus appeared to him one time and Jesus told him… "If my people will learn to be led by the Spirit I will make them rich”
(Taken from Pastor Prince sermon, 6thMarch2005 Abba-The Name By Which You Are Protected)

This sentence just came alive to my spirit as I was listening to it yesterday. I thought then that this simple truth was just so powerful. This morning, as I opened up to my Children’s Bible, my eyes fell directly on Romans 8:14, a verse I highlighted some time back. It says,

“The true children of God are those who let God’s Spirit lead them”

Wow. The moment I saw it I knew I’ve found the key…it says that those who are led are His children! Children is the key to all His riches, amen?=)

He then showed me a picture of a kid in the supermarket with his father.
What usually happens or what would a child do when he realized he is lost?
What would be his first reaction or thoughts? It would be his dad. Why?Because his dad was the one who drove him there & brought him in. Only the dad knew the way home. Only the dad knew whose the child belongs to.
Who would have recognized the boy's voice. Only his dad will.

Now picture the same kid lost. His first thought wasn’t his dad.
He starts looking for a map so that he could find his way back. Or he looks for someone familiar and asks if they knew the way home. Wouldn’t that sound silly.
That’s really what we do sometimes.
When we’re lost in a situation, we turn to books or to our close frens for a solution or a way out to our situation.

How easy it is for the little boy to just call out “Daddy, Daddy!”
And his dad will come running to his rescue. If he’s tired, the dad will be more then willing to lift him up on his shoulder or carry him. The boy now rest and “walks” like His dad. Faster than his tiny footsteps.

When you’re in a hopeless situation, cry out to Daddy God. He recognizes your voice. He knows you by your name and calls you His beloved son and daughter.

The name “Abba” leads you to a place of safety. He leads you home. His home is where His treasure is.

I love what Pastor Prince mention during last bs.

Abba, Daddy IS a prayer. How beautiful.

We are all His children, and when we recognize and cry out “Abba, Daddy!” he leads us to His riches!=)

Grace IS with us!=D
