The Return of the Prodigal

Sonship and the son’s spirit

The mature children of God are those who are moved by the impulses of the Holy Spirit. And you did not receive the “spirit of religious duty,” leading you back into the fear of never being good enough. But you have received the “Spirit of full acceptance,” 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!” For the Holy Spirit makes God’s fatherhood real to us as he whispers into our innermost being, “You are God’s beloved child!”

Romans 8:14‭-‬16 TPT

There is literally no power or situation on earth that needs obstruct us from experiencing the way of being that is expressed in these scriptures. Ask to hear the whisper – it’s not something that can be made up. It’s a work of grace given to all – we need only let the world and all its noise fall silent to hear it. Christ has risen from the dead and has taken us with him.
