You Belong - You Belong to a Blessed Family w/ Raph Fernandes

You belong to a blessed family. Being a child of God largely hinges on your personal experience—an unshakable inner conviction, affirmed by scriptures like Romans 8:16-17 and Psalms 103, that you are indeed part of God’s family. This assurance began when you embraced forgiveness and your place within this spiritual lineage.

Your baptism and heartfelt revelations affirm God’s fatherhood, as detailed in 1 John 3:1-2, highlighting the unique love that marks you as God’s own. Today, we revisit these universal aspects, emphasizing that prosperity, including material wealth as seen in Abraham’s blessings (Galatians 3 and Genesis 13), is part of our heritage, meant to extend beyond ourselves, as evidenced by our call to be blessings to others (Genesis 12:2).

This prosperity is not just financial but encompasses a thriving family life and spiritual richness, aligning with Jesus' teachings on stewardship and the faithful management of resources (Luke 16:10-13). Our family, growing and set apart, is built on foundations of love and truth (Ephesians 2:19-21 and 1 John 3), aiming to reflect God’s kingdom here on earth as we live out our faith through actions that embody God’s love and generosity towards all.
