KNOWING GOD AS YOUR FATHER.
Jeremiah 3:19 – But I said, how shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? and I said, thou shalt call me, my father; and shalt not turn away from me.
Throughout the Old Testament and even before the coming of Jesus, the nature of God as a father was not commonly used. We see God as the Lord (Malachi 3:6), the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Exodus 3:15), the Almighty and Jehovah (Ex 6:3). The desire of God for us all is to acknowledge Him as our Father” …thou shalt call me, my father…” and this Fatherhood of God was made more known through Jesus Christ. All through the life of Jesus, He always acknowledged God as the Father.
In teaching the disciples how to pray in Matthew 6:9-13, Jesus made it a point that God should be acknowledged as “our father”. The revelation of God as the father by Jesus is also seen in John 6:39 about the will of the Father, John 11:41 He hears you when you call, John 10:29 talking about the greatness of God and His ability to preserve, Matthew 6:8 He cares for you, Matthew 7:11 He gives good gifts, Luke 11:13 He gives the Holy Spirit.
As long as you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour and believe in Him, you are empowered to be the son of God. To then enjoy the benefit of sonship, we must consciously see and acknowledge God as our Father and then as Jeremiah 3:19 says, He will give us pleasant land, goodly heritage of the hosts of nations.
Matthew 6 gives us a clear description of who God is as a Father, our Provider. In Matthew 6:8, He knows what you need even before you ask. This shows that God clearly is not ignorant of you as His child. In Matthew 6:25-32, we see that as a child of God, you are valuable to God (vs 26) and therefore, He will feed you (vs 26), He will clothe you with beauty (vs 28-30). There is provision of what to eat, drink, and put on (vs 31-32).
Also, Jesus makes us to understand that we have a Father that is greater than every enemy that might come against us and that God as our Father is able to preserve us and all He has given to us. Here, we see God as our Protector (John 10:29). Therefore, be confident that the life God has given you, nobody can take it away from you. Your children, your business, your spouse, and all that God has given unto You, they are preserved.
