Coffee Time with Jesus

  • The Father: The Father of Spirits
    Furthermore, we have had human fathers
    who corrected us, and we paid them respect.
    Shall we not much more readily be in subjection
    to the Father of spirits and live?
    Hebrews 12:9
     
    When you worship the Father, remember that “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth” (John 4:24). The Father is Spirit. That means He doesn’t have a physical body; no one should make any images, idols, or statues of Him. His nature is Spirit, but that doesn’t mean He’s like smoke or an illusion. The Father is a Person with the power of personality; that is, intellect, emotion, and will. He has existence, and the Father is the powerful Creator, eternal Sustainer, and infinite Judge of the universe. The Father is Spirit, the Father of Spirits.
     
    Father, come visit here, and let me feel Your presence. I bow before You to worship You for Your awesome greatness. I pray to receive Your personal care for me this day.
     
    The Father of Spirits is omniscient; He knows all things possible, so He knows all about you. The Father of Spirits is omnipotent; He has all power to do everything that is possible to do, so He can “work [all things] together for good” for you (Romans 8:28). The Father of Spirits is omnipresent; He is present everywhere at the same time, so He can be close to you and receive your worship. Therefore, worship Him in spirit, and He will hear your prayers.
     
    Father, I know You are here near me. You know all about me and You know what I should do today; guide me. You have all power; work out Your will in my life. Amen.
