Romans 8:14 For
all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.
Hosea 1:10 "Yet
the Israelites will be like the sand on the seashore, which cannot be measured
or counted. In the place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,'
they will be called 'children of the living God.'
John 1:12 Yet to
all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right
to become children of God—
Galatians 4:5 to
redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship.
Ephesians 1:5 he
predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with
his pleasure and will--
In Acts 8:26-27, an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Go to
that chariot of the Ethiopian and stay near it. So Philip ran toward the
chariot.” The two have a Bible study in the chariot. It’s so convincing
that the Ethiopian is baptized that day. Philip teaches, the Ethiopian obeys,
and the gospel is sent to Africa.
Romans 8:14 says, “the true children of God are those who
let God’s Spirit lead them.” You invite a couple over for coffee. Nothing
heroic. Just a nice evening with friends. But from the moment they
enter, you feel led to inquire, you feel a concern that won’t be
silent. So you ask. You catch a glimpse of what it means to be led by
the Spirit. Has it occurred to you? You have the same Spirit working
within you that Philip did! Think about that.
