First15 Devotional

In the last day of our week-long focus on the parable of the prodigal son, we’re going to make space to set our eyes on the father in the story, and ask the Holy Spirit to make us more like him. Our ultimate calling is to grow up into the clearest reflection of who God is, as his children made in his image. And we see an incredible picture of who we are to be in the character of the father in the parable of the prodigal son. May we become more like our Father in heaven today as we look at his word, and spend time in his presence.

As we near the end of our week looking at Jesus’ parable of the prodigal son, we’re going to look today at the restoration of authority the father gave to the son. And we’re going to create space today to look at what it means to be granted the authority of the Father in our own lives. May we be positioned to work with God in bringing his powerful love to earth all around us as the result of our time in his presence today.

In today’s First15, we continue our week on the parable of the prodigal son, by looking at the son’s restoration of identity. The way we see ourselves changes our lived experience every day. And the world around us often sends us a totally different message about who we are than who our Father in heaven says we are.
