Jerry Savelle Daily Devotional May 9 2023.

    In today’s Devotional, Jerry Savelle teaches on the kind of relationship God had planned for us. He wants us to be his friend, he wanted us to have a close relationship just like Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. However, Only when you understand your righteousness in Christ, and remain mindful of it, can you walk intimately with God as His friend

    Jerry Savelle Daily Devotional May 9 2023 Topic: I Am A Friend Of God.

    SCRIPTURE: No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you (John 15:15 NKJV).

    God doesn’t just want servants; He wants friends. He didn’t create mankind so that He could have someone to grovel at His feet with his face in the dirt. No! God wanted friends He could walk and talk with in the cool of the day (Genesis 3:8).

    Through Jesus’ sacrifice, the intimate relationship Adam first shared with God is now available to every believer.

    Remaining conscious of your righteousness in Christ gives you boldness before God and makes your fellowship with the Father more intimate.

    Righteousness gives you the confidence to come before God and talk to Him as your best friend. When you understand He looks at you as if you are as perfect as Jesus, you will never experience any sense of inferiority. That’s why the Bible says, “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16 NKJV).

    Only when you understand your righteousness in Christ, and remain mindful of it, can you walk intimately with God as His friend. So, come boldly to the Father today, secure in your righteousness in Christ, and talk to Him face-to-face, as your friend.

    Confession: Nothing shall separate me from the love of my heavenly Father, which He has poured out on me through Jesus Christ. Because my righteousness is in Christ, I can go boldly to the throne of grace knowing I am a friend of God.
