REVEALED WORD TODAY
// Read: Luke 15:11-24 //
11 To further illustrate the point, he told them this story: “A man had two sons. 12 When the younger told his father, ‘I want my share of your estate now, instead of waiting until you die!’ his father agreed to divide his wealth between his sons.
13 “A few days later this younger son packed all his belongings and took a trip to a distant land, and there wasted all his money on parties and prostitutes. 14 About the time his money was gone a great famine swept over the land, and he began to starve. 15 He persuaded a local farmer to hire him to feed his pigs. 16 The boy became so hungry that even the pods he was feeding the swine looked good to him. And no one gave him anything.
17 “When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, ‘At home even the hired men have food enough and to spare, and here I am, dying of hunger! 18 I will go home to my father and say, “Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, 19 and am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired man.”’
20 “So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long distance away, his father saw him coming, and was filled with loving pity and ran and embraced him and kissed him.
21 “His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and you, and am not worthy of being called your son—’
22 “But his father said to the slaves, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. And a jeweled ring for his finger; and shoes! 23 And kill the calf we have in the fattening pen. We must celebrate with a feast, 24 for this son of mine was dead and has returned to life. He was lost and is found.’ So the party began.
MEDITATION:
You need to know that the father has shared his life with you by His DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and you are part owner with him. You don’t need any formal sharing of the father’s belonging. There is the need for a change of mindset and not be like the prodigal. All that the father has are yours since you have the same DNA. In 1 Corinthians 3:21, the Scripture says, “All things are yours”. In 1 Corinthians 15:27, the Scripture says, “All things are under your feet”. Luke 14:17 says, “All things are ready for you”. Colossians 1:16 says, “All things are created for you”. Romans 11:36 says, “by Him are all things and through Him.” So what is it that you cannot receive? Don’t let the devil deceive you that you need to leave home before you have them. Stay at home for the Father’s Blessings.
PRAYER: Pray that you will stay at home for the Father’s Blessings
