John 15:15 (NIV)
I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business.
Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned
from my Father I have made
known to you.
This morning as it is my usual "routine",
I began to pray on my ride to work. I
began to thank the Lord for the new day, the clouds that will bring the rain for the vegetation, for health, my family,
for a job...then I began to pray about the
armor that the Lord speaks to us about in Ephesians. I began to reflect on all the pieces, the Helmet of
Salvation, Shield of Faith, the Breastplate of Righteousness, etc. and I began to thank him...just thank him...for he has made provision for all I need in
this life....he covers me with his Righteousness.....he equips me with
Truth....His Spirit guides me....He
speaks and directs me....than the
Lord reminded me that I
no longer am outside the courts of the King....he
has invited me in...he has clothed me rightly...and he bestows favor and calls me his daughter. No
longer am I opposing the One which is Good for me...but He has called me to Himself...to enjoy the privilege of being Royalty....you know...we
don't have to be outside any longer...we don't have to peak through the palace windows...we don't have to
be afraid to approach the King.....He
has equipped us for battle and He dressed us to dine with him....to dine with the King...wow....wow....His Righteousness....a breastplate and
a royal robe!
