“Spiritual DNA”

Text —Galatians 4:4-7
Message
DNA is known as “deoxyribonucleic acid”, it is like the design of our bodies. It holds all the information that make us unique, like our eye and hair colour, even how tall we grow. What is truly interesting is that we inherit our DNA from our parents. This mix of genes from both parents is what makes each person special and determines how he or she looks and acts.
Indeed, our DNA is wonderful, it reflects how unique God created each of us. Just as our physical DNA influences our physical characteristics, so also there’s a spiritual DNA that defines who we are as Christians. This spiritual DNA is found in our relationship with God through Jesus Christ and is shown in the way we live our lives. Also it identifies us as God’s children and grants us access to His blessings. When we believe in Jesus, our spiritual DNA changes. We become new people, leaving behind our old way of sin. If your life does not show you belong to God, come to Jesus now, ask for forgiveness and cleansing through the blood of Jesus. It is the blood of the everlasting covenant. It has power to remove all sinful seeds (DNA) and confer on the repentant sinner the nature of God.
