Brian Krawczyk :: The Heart of the Father :: 06.20.10
Throughout the Bible, the heart of God is revealed as the perfect father. Jesus came from the father (Jn 1:14). He came to reveal the father (Jn 14:7-9). He did only what He saw the father do (Jn 5:19). He tells of the father who ran and embraced his wayward son (Lk 15:20). The Holy Spirit is a gift of the father (Jn 14:16). We were commanded to pray for the father (Lk 11:2).
Until we understand who we are as sons and daughters of the king, we will not understand our role in the kingdom–who God calls us to be as fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters. If we miss the heart of the father, we miss the heart of the kingdom. Why? Because it is the father’s kingdom. It’s a kingdom built around the truth of a perfect father. And we must personally encounter the heart of the father.
