No one is born automatically on God’s side—we must each choose to believe in Jesus. In this Daily Hope, Pastor John S. Dickerson explains John 1:12, which says that to all who believed and accepted Jesus, He gave the right to become children of God. We are all created by God, but we only become His children when we receive Jesus as Savior and Lord. Pastor John shows how that moment of faith changes everything: our sins are forgiven, the chains of sin are broken, and we are adopted into God’s family forever. If you’ve never made that decision, this episode will guide you in choosing to believe, receive God’s forgiveness, and begin a new life as His child today.
