TIMES OF REFRESHING

ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL by Obiorah Prince Emeka

DATE: THURSDAY 5 NOVEMBER 2020

 

One of the greatest things that can happen to anyone on earth is understanding his true identity in life. Theidentity of a person is what God has called him to do, while his destiny is what God has called him to be. And one’s identity determines his destiny.

 

There is a direct connection between a person’s identity and his destiny. But the truth of the matter is, everyone’s true identity is found in Christ Jesus. Beholding a new identity in Christ, transforms your life, affects your destiny and everything you do, and subsequently the fruits you bear.

 

SCRIPTURE:

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them, (Ephesians 2:10) ESV

 

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY:

When a man is not aware of his true identity, he becomes established in a perpetual bondage.

 

Understanding your true identity does two things: It gives you the courage to let go of the past, and it gives you the confidence to walk into the future and great destiny, (2 Corinthians 5:17).

 

The key to a successful life in Christ is tied to one’s discovery of his true identity. And for that to happen, one must disconnect from his old ways of living and connect to the new found identity in Christ, where he will come to the full knowledge of God’s desire and plan for his life.

 

Beloved, being conformed into Christ’s image is the key to understanding your true identity in life. And it begins with a revelation of who you are in Christ as a whole new creation. Stay Lifted!

 

NOTE THIS:

When a man is not aware of his true identity, he becomes established in a perpetual bondage.

 

RESPONSIBILITY:

Determine to discover your true identity in life today, and take a bold step to be conformed into the image of Christ Jesus.

 

PRAYER:

O LORD, help me to understand my true identity in Christ, in Jesus name, Amen! (Go ahead and continue to pray)

 

PROPHETIC WORD:

As you discover your true identity in Christ, may God establish and manifest your destiny, in the name of Jesus, Amen.

 

BIBLE TEXTS: Ephesians 2:10, 2 Cor. 5:17
