A confident Son of God is one who has a relationship with God knowing who they are in Christ and their standing before God. When we know that love relationship with God we will have full confident in Him, knowing that He loves us, and that He is for us, and we know that there is nothing that He is withholding from us.
When God is the priority in our lives, and we believe Him, God is able to show us His ways and will direct our paths as we trust Him. When we respond to God out of love and willing heart to do what He wants us to do, We will see great things happen which brings glory to God and builds our confidence in Him more and more.
It by the grace and mercy of God we are saved through faith in Christ, it is not of our own works, none of our own efforts moves God. What moves God is our faith in Him and His son Jesus Christ and what He accomplished for us.
God has invited us into His family and all we had to do was respond to Him to change the direction of our lives with our minds made up to live unto Him and enjoy the full benefits of our sons of God.
Religion and doctrines of man enslaves God people rather then set them free.
Jesus Christ is the real deal, He was an obedient son and lived His life through His relationship with God, The Father loved the son and the son loved the Father.
We to can have a living and loving relationship with our heavenly Father.
1 John 1:3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with Son Jesus Christ.
Now that we are sons of God, we can have fellowship with God and His son, we can walk in freedom and liberty because the son has made us free indeed. we are at peace with God because He has Justified through the accomplished and finished works of Jesus Christ.
Romans 5:1 Therefore being Justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
To be Justified means to be made righteous, we are right before God, there are no more walls between you and God, stopping you to have direct access to Him and full fellowship with Him.
Romans 5:2 By whom also we have access by faith into His grace (God’s favour) wherein we stand and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God
You can not have fellowship without access, but now we have direct access by faith into the favour of God, we have God’s favour there is nothing that is good and right God will withhold from you. He is completely for you and on your side.
Hebrews 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly (with confidence) unto the throne of grace (Favour) that we may obtain (receive) mercy, (tender mercy) and find grace (favour) to help in the time of need.
Having this direct access to God our Father, we can enter the holies of holies the Vail has been removed, we can come boldly before His throne of grace to find mercy and help in the time of need. We are already in the presence of our Father, we are continually before His face.
God wants you to confidently go to Him, Jesus Christ, reconciled man so they can go directly to the Father.
A son of God is confident in God because they know they have been forgiven, they know and believe that they have been made righteous, they know and believe they are Justified, and sanctified and redeemed. A son of God is confidant because they know they have truly turned from their own ways to follow, the way, and truth and life who is Jesus Christ our amazing Lord and Saviour. A son of God is confidant, because their own ways are becoming the ways of Christ.
Jesus knew who he was, and who sent him, he knew his purpose and the works that God gave Him to do. He always did the Fathers will, we to can know who we are, who is sending us and our purpose. He always sought God, He prayed to God, He asked from God, and God heard Him and answered Him. Jesus Christ was a confidant son of God, He is our example to follow.
It is in God we live and move and have our being, when we focus on others or the problems or difficulties that present themselves to us, we can become discouraged with the wrong focus and our faith becomes weak. It is the introduction of light that dispels darkness; our focus is to always look to God.
Our focus should not be on our circumstances or situations, when problems come up, we are to take all our problems to God and we go to Him with a humble heart, and with a confidence, when we do this then God can give us focus, and direction, He gives to us His answers and solutions and deliverance.
Philippians 4:6 Be careful, for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
The Greek word for the word Request is A- itema this word is derived from the verb aiteo which is used a lot in the Greek new testament and is normally translated ask The Biblical meaning of aiteo is to ask with authority or to claim as a right the English word demand when understood in the correct sense would be accurate translation.
God wants us to ask with authority just like when you cash in a check, you know what is in your bank you write your cheque present it to the cashier knowing you will receive the amount you have written on your check. On the English 5,10, 20 and 50 pounds notes it say I promise to pay the bearer on demand the sum of….. It is in this sense we can go to God. So, we can confidently go to God as sons of the Father and also based on His promise to us. We do not have to beg for what we need but simply ask with full Confidence.
1 John 5:14 And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
1 John 5:15 And if we know that he hears us, whatsoever we ask; we know that we have the petitions, (Aitema) that we desire (aiteo) of him.
Go confidently to God and ask him for the things that you needed with great confidence as a son or daughter of the Father. God has many promises for you.
2 Corinthians 1:20 For all the promises of God in him (Christ) are yea, and in him (Christ) Amen, unto the glory of God by us.
All promises of God, are yours, go boldly before the throne of God and claim them as your own. If something has your name on it you can go and claim it confidently. The postman could not deliver a parcel to my home that i was expecting as i was out, so i have to go to postal sorting office to claim, my name was on that parcel i have my identification to proof who i was, and I was very confident that my parcel would soon be in my hands, but i hand to go and claim it.
God always makes good on His promises. When we know what God says concerning His Promises and knowing who we are and what is available we can boldly and confidently ask God for the things we need, and God is faithful to His word and promises.
Proverbs 15:29 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
Now through Jesus Christ accomplished work we have been made righteous, so God hears your prayers. We have been justified by faith and we have peace with God, and we have access to God by faith Romans 5:1-2, we have been made the righteousness of God in Christ 2 Corinthians 5:21
1 John 3:1-2 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore, the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
Galatians 4:4-7 4 But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
Romans 8:14-17 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have re-ceived the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Now we are born again of the spirit of God we are sons of God, Heir of God and Joint heir with Jesus Christ. God is our heavenly Father and God has truly provided everything we need and the answers that we seek from Him are written and God can also reveal to us what we need to do when we go to Him and ask. He is a wonderful Father and when we allow Him to lead us and we follow His direction we will truly be walking in freedom with every need supplied.
We no longer need to be held in bondage to fear or oppression we know longer need to stay in the dark. We no longer need to stay hurt or offended or confused.
God has delivered us from the authority of darkness. Jesus Christ conquered sin and death and has the keys to death and hell and he is alive for evermore, God raised Jesus Christ from the dead and set him at His own right hand in the heavenly far above all principalities, powers and might and dominion and every name that named not only in this world but the one to come and God has put all things under the feet of Jesus Christ and God has raised us up together and made us sit together in the heavenly in Christ Jesus.
read (Ephesians chapters 1&2)
And we are also far above all principalities and powers and might, and dominion we are above satan, who is the God of this world , God has seated Us in Christ at His right hand, this is the truth of who we are now in Christ.
As Jesus Christ is, so are we in this world. Our focus should not be set on our circumstances or situations, what God wants us to do is to take all our problems to Him and when we go to Him with a humble and expectant heart, then God, will give us His answers and He we give us focus, and provide the direction, and provision, He gives us the solutions and deliverance.
Do you believe who you are Christ?, we have read what the scriptures say about who we are, we have heard many teachings on who we are and what we have and what has been accomplish, through Christ.
Now we truly need to take it to our hearts these wonderful truths and believe who God says we are now and really walk daily with confidence, satan, will try and make you think you are worthless and powerless and that God will not provide for you or heal you or deliver you, he will bring in doubt and confusion, But our heavenly Father is not the God of confusion but the God of peace, satan will try to wear us down with his endless suggestions.
We know from the record of Matthew 4, that satan is the tempter, he tried to get Jesus to doubt who he was.
Matthew 4:3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
he tempted Jesus again in Verse 6
Matthew 4:6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
In Verse 8 – 9 He tempted Him again with the kingdoms of this world and their glory.
Matthew 4:8-9 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
Jesus resisted the tempter with it is written Jesus Knew who he was and what God had to say about things
Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
Matthew 4:7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
Matthew 4:10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
No matter what is going on in your life, you can still have joy and peace in believing, in believing the promises of God in believing that God is with us and for us and not against, no matter the situation, and that includes the lock down that is happening world wide today,
satan is liar and thief, if he can get you to believe his lies which he promotes through this world systems and fake news he can begin to steal, kill and destroy, that is his ministry to steal, kill and destroy, but he has to get you to buy into his lies so your deceived from the real truth.
Jesus Christ exposed satan for what he is and what he is doing
John 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am (Jesus) come that they (the believers) might have life (fullness of life) and that they might have it more abundantly.
Jesus Christ could of given up at any time with what He went through and suffered but he kept His eyes on God, He suffered, he was humiliated, He was Tortured, he was in agony but still He looked to God, He knew the joy set before, and we too know the joy set before us, He kept his focused and confidence on God.
We too know the joy set before us, we know we will be gathered, this is our hope this Is our joy. And we will come back with Christ to rule and reign with Him.
Today we can also rule and reign in this life by one Jesus Christ Romans 5:17 to reign is to rule and we can when we believe who we are and what Christ accomplish we have received abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness.
When we are confident in God we will BE focused and have direction and we will live with assurance and certainty, when we have our spiritual glasses on when we see through the eyes of Christ we will have great confidence in God’s grace which is His ability to do, God does the work, He removes the mountains as we believe Him, He provides our needs as we believe and do what He shows us to do in our situations, if we are going to hear from God we must be still and know that he is God. We really should be willing to do what He shows us to do.
King David had great confidence in God, He knew God was the one that moved on his behalf and provided for him and helped him.
Psalms 23:1-6 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
He is your Shepard and you shall not want, He makes you to lay down in green pastures, He leads you besides the stills waters He restores your souls, He guides your paths in righteousness for His name sake.
King David confidence in God was very strong he goes on to say yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow death I will fear no evil, WHY because God was with him, through David life, God corrected David, and guided David and protected David, God blessed David and provided for him and in the presence of his enemies, God refreshed David and He had a great abundance, and goodness and mercy followed David all His days.
What a great confession to have coming from you mouth
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside the still waters
He restoreth my soul and guides my path in righteousness
Thou art with me
Thou preparest a table before me, in the presence of my enemies
Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runnteth
surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.
No matter your situation or trouble, you can have joy and peace in believing and full confidence in God When we are confident in God we are not relying on our own wisdom or ability we are not relying on other peoples wisdom or ability. But we are God dependant, trusting God for the answers and direction and provision for our life and living.
