THERE ARE NO ILLEGITIMATE E CHILDREN.

             You must settle it in your mind that you are not a product of an accident, even if you don’t know your father, even if your mother is a prostitute and “accidentally” got pregnant and gave birth to you. She thinks it was an accident but God planned your coming and He still says of you that you are fearfully and wonderfully made.
                  One wise man says “there are no illegitimate children, only illegitimate parents”. To him, the blame should go to the person who carried out an illegitimate act, not the innocent person who had no part to play to determine their coming into the world.
                       One thing to note is that when you come to Christ, the Holy Spirit regenerates you. The regeneration process puts you some new genes in you like 1John 3:9 says “whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remained in him; and he cannot sin because he is born of God.  When you become born-again by receiving Jesus in to your heart as your Lord and Savior, a new process is put in operation in your life, re-gene-rating you into a new man like 2corinthians 5:17 we become new creatures of Christ.
     You are now en grafted into Christ like the branch on the vine. You no longer have the seed of a rapist or prostitute; you now have the seed (sperm) of God, running in your veins. Learn to encourage yourself in the Lord. 1Samuel 30:6. King David was at a really low point in his life; the Amalekites had ravaged his camp and carried away all the women and children, including his own wives. To make things worse, his own soldiers and townsmen were mad at him, even threatening to kill him. Yet, in the midst of all this turmoil, the Bible says “David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.” He looked away from all the problems and began to meditate on the word of God, reminding himself of the wonderful things the Lord had done for him in the past.
     Having encouraged  himself, the Bible says he “inquired from the Lord , saying, shall I pursue after this troop? Shall I overtake them?” The Lord responded “pursue;for thou shalt surely overtake them, and without fail recover all”(1samuel 30:8). David  had to encourage himself first before the Lord spoke to him to pursue his enemies. If he had sat around feeling sorry for himself and lamenting his woes, he would never have recovered what his enemies stole. He wouldn’t even have been in any frame of mind to hear what the Lord was saying to him because of t he heaviness of his heart.
         I don’t know what difficult situation you  might be in today I exhort you to do as David did: encourage yourself in the Lord. Take out your Bible and begin to search out Scriptures that reveal God’s will for you in the areas where you’re facing challenges. Meditate on the word of God; quote scriptures to yourself over and over until the victory note sounds in your spirit! Then begin to declare, “Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world! I know who I am!”.
