THE BEST GIFT OF THE FATHER


THE BEST GIFT OF THE FATHER 

“Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. Every good and perfect gift is from above, and comes from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning” – James 1:16-17 (NKJV)

  

All great gifts fall into two main categories -

Good and perfect gifts. Good gifts include; godly marriage, sound health, righteous riches and faithful friends. Love, grace, glory and eternal life are examples of perfect gifts.

 

Every good and perfect gift comes from above

Everything that is from above is above all. Good and perfect gifts are above all other gifts – especially earthly gifts. One good or perfect gift is better than thousand earthly gifts.

 

Every good and perfect gift comes from the Father who is trustworthy and faithful

Is He your father or He remains just your Creator? Truly God is not Father of all though He is the Creator of all. He is Father to only those who have personal relationship with Him. 


The Father is a father to only those who know themselves to be sinners and have accepted His Son into their hearts. The name of His Son is Jesus Christ. The Son is God’s best gift to the world. He came from above and later ascended to above - Heaven. You can find good and perfect gifts ONLY in Jesus. I give you the best gift of the Father – Jesus.  Do not be deceived; there is no better gift outside Jesus. Choose to always to walk with Him.
