FELLOWSHIP OF SONS
“God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:9 (NKJV)
When you believed and received Jesus, you did not merely escape hell. The Lord brought you into sonship. (John 1:12-13).
In your new birth, you were called into the fellowship of Jesus, by God.
The word, fellowship is from the Greek word, Koinonia. Which means partnership, participation,communication, communion, distribution and intercourse.
By God’s own faithfulness, not by your self effort, God called you into the participation, communion and partnership of His Son Jesus.
To come into fellowship or participation of His Son also means you share in the reality of the Sonship of Jesus.
In the fellowship of sonship, you are no longer an alien but also a son.
“Beloved, now are we the sons of God…” 1 John 3:2 (KJV)
In that call unto fellowship with Jesus the Lord also justified you.
This was not an after-thought, it was God’s age long plan and intention to bring you into sonship.
It was His predestined plan to call you, justify you and bring you into His glory. (Romans 8:30).
Justification is a crucial reality for your calling into sonship.
The term justification, is a legal term. To be justified is to be declared not guilty or declared righteous.
You were not justified cheaply. God did not overlook your wrongs to justify you.
Jesus died as penalty for your wrongs and trespasses.
” He was delivered over to death for our trespasses and was raised to life for our justification” Romans 4:25(BSB)
Now from the above verse you can see the essence of the resurrection of Jesus.
By the resurrection of Jesus, you were justified.
The born again in Christ, is the justified. As He has called you, He has justified you. The justification came with His resurrection and by that God legally called you into the fellowship of sonship.
God purposed this before the foundation of the earth. The Lord’s desire is that all will experience salvation and become His very expression and manifestation. God didn’t want to be hidden. He wanted to be touched and experienced. He wanted His love to be seen by all.
God predestined that man will be His expression before the foundation of the world and come into adoption as sons.
Sonship is for expression. The son expresses the father. Great is the mystery of Godliness; God manifested in the flesh [see 1st Timothy 3:16].
No man has ever seen God but the son who is in the bosom of the father has expressed Him [John 1:18].
The Son expressed the Father by becoming flesh. God becoming man through Jesus, was His manifestation. Godliness is the expression of divinity.
The essence of man is that he will be the expression of life which is God. Man is to be the very expression of God.
God has predestined that you will be hewn out of Him possessing His LIFE.
It is His plan for all.
God made it available for all men to experience adoption of sonship. Yet not all have come into this sonship.
Those who receive Him are brought into sonship.
The saddest thing is not receiving eternal life and the gladdest thing is to receive eternal life by believing (John 1 : 11-12).
Whosoever has the son has life. This means the son is the life (1John 5:11-12)
Beloved let this settle within you, you participation in sonship is not dependent on your faithfulness. It is dependent on the faithfulness of God.
Not that we first loved him but that he first loved us [1st John 4:10]. By this you came into a participation, a fellowship, and equal sharing in Christ.
You don’t have a ‘part share’ you have a full share as son.
Wherefore are we partakers of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4). You share in all of that which is in God.
Anytime you feel discouraged and it seem the vicissitudes of life kicks you about, remember you are a son of God.
Anytime you feel like all hope is lost, remember you have a living hope which is incorruptible. (1 Peter 1:3).
We are not of this world. We are not in agreement with this world.
You are not a sinner. You are a son of God. You are in fellowship of His Son Jesus Christ our Lord.
GLORY TO GOD!
DIG DEEPER
(Ephesians 1:3-6; 2 Timothy 1:9-10; Romans 8:14-17;28-30 )
WE PRAY:
That as sons we shall demonstrate and express the reality of God in our world.
BIBLE READING
Day 67: Deuteronomy 33-34
DECLARE THESE WORDS:
– Now I am a son of God and I have His very life.
– I share in the inheritance of the sons of God in the light.

[…] The concept of Justification is not to make you go to Heaven after death. The concept of justification is to bring you into an intimate Father-Son relationship with God. […]
