TOPIC: Know Who You Are In Christ (DCLM Daily Manna 11 March 2026)
KEY VERSE: And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ – Galatians 4:6,7
TEXT: Galatians 4:1-6 (KJV)
1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

“You are not who you are in Christ because of the things you have done; you are in Christ because of what He has done. He died and rose again so that you and I could live in the freedom of His love,” said Neil T. Anderson, an American writer.

In this passage, Paul speaks to the believers in Galatia about who they were and what they had inherited through Christ. He emphasises that their connection with God hinged entirely on what Christ had done, rather than on their own efforts. Using the metaphor of an heir and a child, Paul paints a picture of the incredible change that happens when someone puts their faith in Jesus. Before Christ, believers were like heirs under the watchful eye of guardians, bound by the constraints of the law. But thanks to Christ’s redemptive work, they have been adopted as God’s sons and daughters, moving from a place of bondage to one of freedom, and from law to grace.

Now, as children of God, we have the Spirit of sonship, which allows us to call God ‘Abba, Father’—a term similar to “daddy, daddy”. Recognising that we are God’s children through Christ gives us the confidence to approach the Father and enjoy a deep, personal relationship with Him. This realisation should change our lives, freeing us from the need to earn God’s love or approval. Instead, we can rest in the finished work of Christ, assured that the Father loves us and that we are accepted in His beloved Son. Understanding our identity in Christ empowers us to live out our faith with confidence and courage. We don’t need to shrink back in fear before worldly powers or spirits that challenge God’s truth. The heart of this passage lies in Paul’s powerful declaration that because we are sons, we are also heirs of God. As His children, we inherit His promises and blessings. Our inheritance goes beyond material things; it includes the fullness of life in Christ—eternal life, peace, joy, and a secure future. That said, stop living as if you are a slave or a foreigner to God. You are a son or daughter, co-heir with Jesus Christ!
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
If you belong to God, you’re entitled to the riches of His grace.

4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
