Grow actively in your identity

🌟 EXHORTATION through THE BOOK OF LIFE

Scriptures to ponder on :

“Giving thanks to the Father who did make us meet for the participation of the inheritance of the saints in the light, who did rescue us out of the authority of the darkness, and did translate [us] into the reign of the Son of His love,”

‭‭Colossians‬ ‭1‬:‭12‬-‭13‬ ‭YLT98‬‬

🔥 GROW ACTIVELY IN YOUR IDENTITY

Beloved,

Many Christians suffer because they do not really understand who they are in Christ. However, the Bible reminds us that God acts in us, pushing us to want and do what pleases him (Philippians 2:12-13).

From the beginning, God created you with gifts and abilities to reflect His glory, just as He had blessed Adam (Genesis 2:15). But because of sin, the world fell under the influence of Satan (1 John 5:19), which explains the confusion and suffering around us.

But the good news is that God didn't leave you there. He delivered you from the grip of darkness and transferred you to the kingdom of light of Jesus Christ, His beloved Son. It's like going from total darkness to bright light: your vision changes, your life changes.

Colossians 1:12-13 shows us what God has done for us, and Philippians 2:12-13 calls us to fully live this new identity with seriousness and gratitude.

🚫 REFUSE THE WORKS OF DARKNESS

Now that you know who you are in Christ, do not tolerate anything that comes from the darkness in your life:

Fear, confusion, guilt, spiritual oppression... all this no longer belongs to you.

Command these things with persistence to leave your life in the name of Jesus.

You are a child of the light, so receive everything that God's light offers you: peace, freedom, joy, direction, power and victory.

Stay firm in your new identity.

Walk with gratitude.

And let the light that is in you shine forth.

Jesus’ beloved !
