Romans‬ ‭8‬:‭19‬ ‭NIV‬‬ says

“For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed.”

The world is waiting in anticipation and excitement for you to manifest as a child of God. So what are you waiting for??

2 Corinthians‬ ‭5‬:‭20‬ ‭AMP‬‬

“So we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making His appeal through us; we [as Christ’s representatives] plead with you on behalf of Christ to be reconciled to God.”

John‬ ‭11‬:‭41‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“…Then Jesus looked up to heaven and said, “Father, thank you for hearing me.”

Even though Jesus knew that he was the son of God, he never felt entitled or took anything that his Heavenly Father did for him for granted. He was always filled with gratitude to God in every situation, no matter how difficult or challenging.

‭If you study God’s relationship with different people from the Old Testament to the New Testament, you’ll notice that one of God’s love languages is ‘quality time’. Jesus clearly understood this and throughout his life, he was very deliberate about spending quality time alone with his Heavenly Father.

With Jesus and God, there were no surprises because they communicated with each other about everything. Everything Jesus said, God told him to say, and everything Jesus did was what he saw his Father doing (John 5:19).

No wonder Jesus prayed and spoke with so much authority!

Hebrews‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬ NLT‬‬

“Even though Jesus was God’s Son, he learned obedience from the things he suffered.

Children are expected to reverence and honour their fathers and God expects us to reverence Him if we are truly His children. Jesus clearly understood the value of reverencing God because he completely reverenced and honoured God the Father all through his life.

It’s one thing to have a good, loving Heavenly Father but it’s another thing to be a good son to the father. Jesus came, not only to reveal the father to us, but also to show us an example of how to relate with our Heavenly Father and be good sons and daughters to Him.

Jeremiah‬ ‭29‬:‭11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ says

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”

The desire of our Heavenly Father is to have an intimate personal relationship with us His children. Being born again means being reconciled back into a relationship with God. So it’s all about the quality of our relationship with God.
