Title: When God Becomes Your Father (3 of 6)
Series: More Than Conquerors
Author: Jeff Schreve
Text: Romans 8:14-17
If you have your Bible, please turn to Romans chapter 8. We started a series just a couple of weeks ago entitled, "More Than Conquerors" from Romans 8:37. And today, I want to talk to you about this subject: "When God Becomes Your Father."
Fanny Crosby is a well-known name to people in church. She was famous for all the hymn-writing that she did. She wrote over 8,000 hymns and gospel songs. She's been called the "Queen of Gospel Song Writers." Fanny Crosby was blinded when she was six weeks old because a doctor's remedy for swelling in her eyes caused her eyes to be burned out, her irises to be burned out. They couldn't be remedied, and so she was blind. And she had such a great attitude toward that. I was watching a video clip this morning about Fanny Crosby, and she said, "You know, I don't know whatever happened to that doctor." He's probably dead by the time she was doing this testimony. And she said, "But I would love to get to see him, to meet him, and to thank him for what he did, because," she said, "God has used this for such good in my life." She had the wonderful poem, "O, what a happy soul am I, although I cannot see. I am resolved that in this world contented I shall be. How many blessings I enjoy that other people don't, who weep and sign because I'm blind. I cannot, nor I won't." And God used her in such great ways.
Well, one of her most famous hymns, we just sang a piece of it just a minute ago, "Blessed Assurance." "Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine. O, what a foretaste of glory divine. Heir of salvation, purchase of God. Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood. This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all the day long. This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all the day long." She had blessed assurance. Do you have blessed assurance? Is that your song, that Jesus Christ is you ...
