Adoption From The Thematic Bible 9:
Adoption » Is to be pleaded in prayer:
Isaiah 63:16: For You are our Father, though Abraham does not know us
And Israel does not recognize us.
You, O Lord, are our Father,
Our Redeemer from of old is Your name.
Matthew 6:9: “Pray, then, in this way:
‘Our Father who is in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Adoption » A privilege of saints:
John 1:12: But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name,
1 John 3:1: See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.
Adoption » Explained:
2 Corinthians 6:18: “And I will be a father to you,
And you shall be sons and daughters to Me,”
Says the Lord Almighty.
Adoption » Exemplified:
1 Chronicles 28:6: He said to me, ‘Your son Solomon is the one who shall build My house and My courts; for I have chosen him to be a son to Me, and I will be a father to him.
Finished for today.
God Bless!
