People were bringing little children to Jesus to have him touch them, but the disciples rebuked them. When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.
A Prayer Of Recognition Of Our Position In Christ
Father, for us to sit in the heavenlies with Christ is not obtained through our good works, nor can it be purchased with our wealth. We can’t get there because our grandpa was a godly man nor can we be seated in the heavenlies because we went to church every Sunday and memorized many Scriptures. It is because of the great sacrifice Christ made for us that You made us alive together with Him and raised us up with Him, seating us with Him in the heavenly places so that in the ages to come You might show us the surpassing riches of Your grace. We’re undeserving of Your favor but You’re unsurpassed in Your grace and we are the eternal beneficiaries. Thank You, thank You, thank You! Amen.
