See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world dont recognize that we are Gods children because they dont know him. Dear friends, we are already Gods children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is. And all who have this eager expectation will keep themselves pure, just as he is pure. Everyone who sins is breaking Gods law, for all sin is contrary to the law of God. And you know that Jesus came to take away our sins, and there is no sin in him. Anyone who continues to live in him will not sin. But anyone who keeps on sinning does not know him or understand who he is. Dear children, dont let anyone deceive you about this: When people do what is right, it shows that they are righteous, even as Christ is righteous. But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil. Those who have been born into Gods family do not make a practice of sinning, because Gods life is in them. So they cant keep on sinning, because they are children of God. So now we can tell who are children of God and who are children of the devil. Anyone who does not live righteously and does not love other believers does not belong to God.‭‭1 John‬ ‭3‬:‭1‬-‭10‬ ‭NLT‬‬

See how very much our Father loves us, for He calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world dont recognize that we are Gods children because they dont know Him. (I John 3:1)Through Gods amazing love and Jesus sacrifice, you are Gods child, the receiver and heir of an incredible vault of love that will never be depleted. In your willingness to accept His grace in exchange for your sin, you were born into His family with all the privileges of being His child. With the power of His Spirit residing within, you have power over sin, and power over the false accuser, Satan.

This truth enables us to avoid lies of discouragement and to STAND STRONG. But dont be surprised when co-workers, neighbors or friends question your faith, or create drama because of their decisions. If Jesus has not softened their heart, they dont understand His ways. Keep praying and sowing seeds of kindness, grace, and love.

In what specific area is the Spirit asking you to amp your prayer life? What parts of your life have you experienced victory over sin?
