Message for June 21, 2026 from Pastor Shirley

For this reason [seeing the greatness of this plan by which you are built together in Christ], I bow my knees before the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,  For Whom every family in heaven and on earth is named [that Father from Whom all Fatherhood takes its title and derives its name].                
Ephesians  3:14-15

Kingdom Dynamics NKJV The Identity of Family Is in God 

Family Order

Humanly speaking we link the identity of a husband, wife and children to their particular family name. This, however, is only surface identification. Family identity has a deep root. 

Family is a word that is rooted in God: God is Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. In Himself, God is a “divine family.” 

Family is a root word that is rooted in God: In Himself God is “divine family,” This also expresses itself in the way that God relates to people. The Bible reveals this aspect of God’s nature in a rich and varied use of family imagery. God is our Father God’s Husband to His people. God is like a nurturing mother. Christ is the Bridegroom of the church. 

When a man and a woman come together in marriage God extends to them this name that in essence belongs to Him the name of family. Husband and wife and children live up to the true meaning of this name as they reflect the nature and life of the divine family of the divine family in their human family.
