I’M A CHILD OF THE KING - PART 2

Scripture:  Galatians 3:26 – “For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.”

     “A Child of the King” written by Harriet E. Buell goes like this: “My Father is rich in houses and lands, He holdeth the wealth of the world in His hands!  Of rubies and diamonds, of silver and gold, His coffers are full, He has riches untold. I’m a child of the King, A child of the King: With Jesus my Savior, I’m a child of the King.
    My Father’s own Son, the Savior of men, once wandered on earth as the poorest of them; but now He is pleading our pardon on high, that we may be His, when He comes by and by. I once was an outcast stranger on earth, a sinner by choice, an alien by birth, but I’ve been adopted, my name’s written down, an heir to a mansion, a robe and a crown. A tent or a cottage, why should I care? They’re building a palace for me over there; though exiled from home, yet still may I sing: All glory to God, I’m a child of the King.”
    One of the great benefits of being a child of the King is that we are promised that His presence would be with us every day of our lives.  He promised that He would never leave us nor forsake us and that promise is true.  To be a child of God means that Jesus is
always near!
    The psalmist said in Psalm 139:7-10 “Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?  If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.”
