Could you imagine waking up one morning not knowing your name or anything else about yourself? It is probably one of the most terrifying feelings since there is an enormous security in knowing who we are. The safety of knowing our identity is a major reason why people are so reluctant to change. They are secure in what they know and very fearful about what they do not know. However, there is a whole other side of you that God wants to reveal to you today!
Just as it is important to know who you are in the natural, it is just as crucial to know who you are in the spirit. When you came to Christ, your spirit was born again and a new creature was born. With that new birth came a need of knowledge, to reeducate your mind to understand who this new creature is so that the perfect will of God can manifest in the flesh.
God has made us more than conquerors through His Son, Jesus, but the benefits of that truth will never manifest until we convince ourselves of it. Unfortunately, most Christians don’t know the wealth waiting for them in the riches found through our Heavenly Father; and that’s exactly how the devil wants to keep it. His goal is to make us stay in ignorance of who we truly are in Jesus to stop us from attaining the rights and freedom that we have as sons and daughters of the King of kings!
Romans 12:2 says it this way, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Paul didn’t pray that we would receive something new from God, but so that we would renew our minds and to make manifest what we ALREADY have! God did not change us only in principle at the new birth, but we are now, in our spirits, a totally new creation. Are you ready to attain this knowledge and take the first step of faith towards what God has already provided for you?

Jesus is a safe harbor
I am a follower of Jesus. I am a grateful delivered woman who was once an addict, but now God has restored me and renewed me. I have been redeemed and remade by our Creator through salvation of His Son, Jesus Christ! I just want to share what God has done in my life that you may have the opportunity to experience the same joy He gave me. I give God all the glory for everything in my life for I couldn't accomplish anything apart from Him.
If ye shall know the truth, the truth shall set you free, John 8:32.
He puts people in my life that help me and gives me the opportunity to help another. I am never surprised by his love and blessings. God has placed a confidence and love in myself that I have never had before… so "Thank you God".. for the many True Blue Christians you have put in my life and for all the blessings you bestow on me daily. I have not come this far without lots of prayers and the help and love of my true friends and family and I thank you God for those special people in my life. You are 100% my Savior! I will forever have your name on my lips.
I realize now with lots of prayer and reading of the Word… that all the answers were here for me and I never asked the questions. Although I still struggle daily with other life’s daily cards that are dealt, I have an attitude now of “NO MATTER WHAT “– I will praise You, Lord~~~through my storms and my triumphs! I have much more to share and would love to answer any questions anyone may have for through all my trials what has come to be is that I want to help others to see what I didn’t see and hopefully prevent the same hurts, guilt, shame and woes that I had to deal with and give them the best gift of all… JESUS!
I believe it's important that we know who we are in God ... We are a one of a kind and God has made us like no other for a purpose- His purpose. Yes, bad things happen and yes, we make poor choices, but we don't have to continue to make them. God's mercies are new each day. Once we realize, know and most importantly believe who we are in Christ, that we are a child of God, we are not an accident, and whatever the circumstances before us each day no matter what they are... God gives us the choice and the power of Him to choose right and live right. We no longer have to live in the past, but in the present and look with expectation to the future with God by our side guiding us and directing our steps. He is our strength and our hope needs to reside in Him. Let his power and love work in your life today and see that life does not have to be the way you are living now. He wants to help you, but you have to let him. He can't make us come to him, he is not lost - WE ARE!
