My Identity in Christ!

Ephesians 2:10 “ For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do” (NIV).


What are some instances you lost your identity to be accepted by OTHERS?

OUCH!  That hurts!

When God created us, He created masterpieces.  Therefore, why do we allow people or things to define who we are? Perhaps, it is because we allow too many people speak negative things in our lives. We then carry those emotional scars around with us causing us to lose our identity.

Psalm 139:13-14 says, “For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well.” Everything that God created is good! Therefore, do not define your identity on “sinking” grounds.  Define your identity on the solid rock and the chief corner stone.  His name is Wonderful Counselor, the Great I Am, my Savior…JESUS!

Heavenly Father,

Forgive me for not remembering whose I am.  I embrace my identity in You. You created me and everything you created is good. God, strengthen me, wherever I am weak in.  You are my strength.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
