This Is Us (Week Four) ਨਮੂਨਾ

Day Five 

Welcome to our Daily Devotional for our new series This Is Us.  During this series we are going to journey through our Freedom Church DNA.  Some of you may know that DNA is like the secret code inside you – the thing that makes you, well, you!  You may also know that God created us in His image and wants us to live our best life.

This week we are looking at our Freedom DNA –  Raise the Next and Heart and Soul. Let's now look at Heart and Soul, looking at how Jesus taught the disciples that being like children will help them to keep God’s Kingdom at the centre of their lives. 

Heart and Soul

We take personal responsibility for the vision and unity of our church. We are committed to making God’s Kingdom the central cause of our lives, no matter the cost. 

READ:

‘Jesus and the Children’ in the Beginners Bible (pages 409 - 412) or in Matthew 19, Mark 10 and Luke 18

Jesus told the disciples that they must become like children if they want to enter God’s Kingdom – Jesus loves us and wants us all to be part of His family. 

ASK: 

Have you decided to follow Jesus always?  If you would like to, chat to your grownup about this and maybe you can say the following prayer.

Dear Jesus, Thank you for forgiving me for all the things I have done wrong. I believe in my heart that you died for me and that you came back to life. I love you and will live for you every single day of my life. Thank you for loving me and saving me! Amen 

REMEMBER:

So God created human beings in his image. In the image of God he created them. He created them male and female – Genesis 1:27

SAY:

God created me, 

Magnificent you can see. 

Every cell and part, 

Were designed in His heart. 

From the beginning of creation,

Every clan, tribe and nation. 

Made in His image, 

With purpose, love and to encourage. 

Whatever come what may, 

This is my DNA!
