His Children

In John5:28 we are told that the hour is coming where even the grave will not hold His children. Who are his children?

They are born again believers, saved through His grace and mercy. They are bought by His Blood on Calvary, paid for by His strips. They are those who have confesses their sins and ask The Lord to come into their hearts, to live in them.

But we must beware, there are many who confess Him Him are still not his children. You must confess that you are a sinner and ask for forgiveness, only then can you be born again.

His children walk in His light. The strive for righteousness. We are to be Holy as He is Holy Jesus wants us to be like Him, to put away evil things of this world, evil thoughts, and evil deeds.

His children are forgiving. This is one hardest things for all of us. When we are hurt by someone we as humans want to cause hurt back, but Jesus said to forgive them, to turn the other cheek. He forgives us so we must forgive others.

His children pray for others. We are to pray daily for forgiveness, for His mercy, for the afflicted, our country, our leaders, even if you do not agree with them. We are to pray The Lord's guideance on them. Pray for your family, friends. Believing He will answer your prays. He always does, even if it is to tell you no. Pray for His protection from evil. The devil wants to harm you, but he is weak compared to The Lord.

His children are Loving. The Bible says love is the greatest gift. We are to love one another even the sinner, not his sin but the person. Jesus loved us while we were still in sin, He loved us enough to die for us. Just think how much he love you. He would have died if you were the only one who need Him. What a love.
