PROMISE #95 - APRIL 5
Promise #95:
I am your Father and you are My handiwork.
Isaiah 64:8 (WEB)
But now, Yahweh, you are our Father;
we are the clay, and you our potter;
and we all are the work of your hand.
The Bible teaches us in Genesis that God created Adam from the dust of the ground. I wonder if the creation process that took place in the Garden of Eden resembles the reference that Isaiah makes in today's Scripture passage?
God is a loving Father who created us with His own gentle hands. His eyes are fixed on each one of us as He shapes and molds us into the likeness of the Son whom He loves (Romans 8:29). He is on our side, and we are the work of His hands! What a simple yet profound thought.
Ephesians 2:10 tells us that we are our Heavenly Father's workmanship, created in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to do the good works He prepared in advance for us to do! The enemy of our souls would want us to believe otherwise. My prayer today is that we all see how amazing we are simply because we are the handiwork of our Heavenly Dad!

Responsive Prayer:
Father, thank you for knitting me together in my mother’s womb and for designing me to be one of your much-loved masterpieces. Even though I live in a world that sometimes makes me feel not enough, today, I choose to declare that I am wonderfully made and have been created in the image of my loving Heavenly Father.
In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
I am your Father and you are My handiwork.
