Calling God my Father

 It is an awesome priviledge. Yet, what is God like a Father?

1. God desires to have a close, personal relationship with  you [Is 49:15,16].

God isn't a distant father. Rather, He wants to reveal His presence to you.  He wants to be close to you.  God loves you enough that He meets with you whenever you call upon Him.  Whether you want companionship, meet some wisdom, yearn for a sense of belonging, or just want someone to talk to- God is always available to you.

2. God desire to communicated with you[Jer 33:3;Matt 6:6].

the only way you are truly going to embrace God as your Father is if you are open and honest with Him.  You must open your heart to Him and invite Him into situation.  He wants to communicate with you and lead you in the way you should go.  He wants to reveal Himself to you and to you and share His wisdom with you. 

3.  God loves you unconditional [See Romans 5:8;1 John 3:1]. God is wise and knows everything about you.  There is nothing you have to do to earn.

It is good to understand that God is Our Heavenly Father.  We must be obedient to God's Word and stay focused on Him.

4. God already knows all of your needs before you ask Him.

5. God will always be with you [Deut 31:6].

6. God is a Father who disciplines [Heb 12:5-10}.

7. God holds you accountable for your life. We are accountable to God for all things.

8. God will always help you to do the right thing. We must study God's Word and then be obedient to His Word. Be blessed. Dr.Annie R. Eskridge areskridge6840@att.net
