You’re Accepted, Loved, And Secure - All The Word for Today Daily Devotionals for 2026

‘He adopted you as His own.' Romans 8:15 NLT

If you're adopted, that means your parents chose you. They could have picked a different gender, colour, or ancestry. But they selected you. You may think, ‘But if they could have foreseen the rest of my life, they might have changed their minds.' That's the point exactly! God has foreseen our entire lives from beginning to end, and He was still convinced And that's so, on your bad days as well as your good ones. And it gets better. Your adoption is horizontal as well as vertical. You're now a member of His redeemed family. Dividing walls of hostility are broken down, and community is created on the basis of a common Father. Instant family worldwide!

If God loves you, you must be worth loving. If He wants you in His Kingdom, then you must be worth having. God's grace invites you—no, requires you—to change your attitude about yourself and take sides with God against your feelings of rejection or superiority, unworthiness or merit. You're accepted, loved, and secure, because of Jesus!
