Adoption stories are amazing! Paperwork, travel, money, and then a child! This child gets a new family and sometimes even a new name.
When you believe on Jesus, God adopts you and makes you a member of His family.
When God adopts you, He does three things: He gives you a new nature. He gives you a new name. He gives you a new relationship.
New Nature
Romans 8:12-15
When you trusted in Christ, God gave you a new nature. This new nature gives you power over sin.
2 Peter 1:3-4
God gave you everything you need to live this life in a godly way. Believers are a partaker of the divine nature. The believer now has power over sin.
New Name
God has given all believers a new name. That new name is "a child of God."
Romans 8:16-17
All humans are NOT children of God. Only those that believe on Jesus receive this new name.
New Relationship
God also gave you a new relationship. Believers have an intimate relationship with The Heavenly Father - God is now your daddy. You can now approach God in boldness.
Finally, God will never leave you nor forsake you. This relationship is eternal.
