Romans 8:15 says, “For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.” Pastor Ricley calls on us to examine our hearts to see if we truly believe we’ve been adopted by God or if we’re seeing God through the eyes of religion, afraid that we won’t measure up. The Spirit of adoption frees us from bondage about working our way into His house as we learn that He’s opened the door and brought us in to abide with Him. When we see the truth about Him adopting us, we can turn our hearts to adopting Him as Ruth did.
Scripture: 1 Kings 19:1-7, Matt 1:1-6, Ruth 2:4-17
