Who I Am In Christ










"Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.” - John 6:27

Some of us want to be rich and honoured by the people on earth. But to achieve this goal, you'll need to act like THEM. But John instructs us to be Christ-like:
"Whoever  says they abide  in him [Jesus] ought to walk in the same way in which He walked."
John means for us to be Christ-like. Whenever we want to take action or decide on something, we need to put Jesus first in the matter. We have to ask Him, because He knows the best for our lives. We must first be humble to accept God's decision.

"God  has no use for conceited people, but shows favour to those who are humble." - Proverbs 3:34. When we talk about 'concieted people' we are talking about people with disobedient pride. Disobedient pride is when you think you can do something without God and do it contrary to His commandments. To be able to accept God's decision, you must first be humble.

God needs us to be Christ-like so that we can show others the way to Jesus. Your actions, thoughts and words should all be about Jesus or related to Him. Always be thinking: What would Jesus do?

"For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps." - 1 Peter 2:21

We must always be thinking about others. How can I help? What can I do to be Christ-like? Being Christ-like also means spending time with God and/or His Word, like Jesus did.

Read the Scriptures with understanding. Memorise them so that you can tell others and lead them to the reference.

Pray and say Confessions. Pray and say who you are in Christ. I suggest, personally, the Rhapsody of Realities by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome. Visit: http://www.rhapsodyofrealities.org/index.php/en/ to learn more. Anyway, we must say who we are in Christ multiple times daily. This gives us protection from the enemy - Satan and also proves we know who we are and the devil can't change our minds

Always do everything with God's Word at the back of your head. In everything you do, ask yourself is it right? Does the Bihle say anything about this? Or, what would Jesus do in this situation?


Know who You are In Christ!

Revere Christ as Lord!

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." - 1 Peter 3:15. Whenever we are being trialled or tested for our faith, we should never deny it. Take the opportunity to tell them about God. Preach to them and give them the chance to hear about God. It may work, it may not. But all you know is, you accomplished your part of the mission. You've preached to them. Now it's there decision to come to Christ. Notice the Bible says do it with GENTLENESS. We don't use violence to try and preach the Gospel. We don't force people to believe in our reality. We use one of the fruit of the spirit (See Galatians 5:22 for a full list) Now you may wonder why Peter says 'with respect' when God says: "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:" - Acts 10:34.

Most Powerful

8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. (‭Psalms‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ KJV) In this verse, David is actually having a revelation about Jesus from the Holy Ghost. Let me explain. You see- as Christians, Jesus is the one who is before us. The One we follow. He is at our right hand and protects us. And because of Him, we are not moved. The Lord is you Leader, Provider and Guide. Without him, your steps would be without guide and you would have no knowledge of the path you are taking. You would be vulnerable to Satan and he will be able to destroy you. But-thank God- he can't destroy us. Christ lives in us, the most powerful Thing ever!
