Romans 8:14-19 TPT V14) The mature children of God are those who are moved by the impulses of the Holy Spirit. 15) And you did not receive the “spirit of religious duty” leading you back to fear of never being good enough. But you have received the “spirit of full acceptance,” (adoption * my emphasize added) enfolding you into the family of God. And you will never feel orphaned, for as he rises up within us, our spirits join him in saying the words of tender affection, Beloved Father! 16) For the Holy Spirit makes God’s Fatherhood real to us as he whispers into our inner most being, “YOU ARE GODS BELOVED CHILD!” 17)and since we are his true children, we qualify to share all his treasures, for indeed, we are heirs of God himself. And since we are joined to Christ, we also inherit all that he is and all that he has. We will experience being co-glorified with him provided that we accept his sufferings as our own. 18) I am convinced that any sufferings we endure is less than nothing compared to the magnitude of glory that is about to be unveiled within us. 19)The entire universe is standing on tiptoe, yearning to see the unveiling of Gods sons and daughters.
