👩‍👧 Family Devotional — Day 21

Heirs Together

Empowered: The Holy Spirit in the Life of the Believer devotional series

“…and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ—if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him.”Romans 8:17 (NASB 1995)

What does it mean to be “heirs with Christ”? It means everything Jesus has promised is ours too—eternal life, peace, joy, and one day, being with Him forever. But right now, we live in a broken world, and the journey includes struggle.

The Holy Spirit helps us see suffering differently: not as punishment, but as preparation for glory. As a family, we can walk through hardship together, confident that God is shaping us for something greater.

Family Talk:

  • What does being an “heir of God” mean to you?
  • How can we support each other when life gets hard?

Prayer:
Lord, thank You for calling us into Your family. May we suffer with hope, love with courage, and trust the Spirit to lead us toward glory. Amen.
