Daily Devotional

Day 8 - Jan. 19

For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named.

Ephesians 3:14–15

We have a good Father who has called us to be his own. By his great love he has reconciled us to himself, making us his sons and daughters. Let that truth renew your joy.

1. Rejoice today that God has called you by name and adopted you as his child. 

2. Praise him for all those he has gathered to be a part of the family of God at The Summit Church. Celebrate the salvation of God in the lives of those you know and love.

3. Pray that God would increase your confidence in his love and fill us all with great joy because of our redemption.

KIDS PROMPT: What makes us children of God?

PRAY WITH KIDS: God, you are a good good father. Thank you for letting me be your child. Thank you for the family that you have given me. Help me to see your love in the people around me.
