TEXT GENESIS 1:27-28
TOPIC : IDENTITY AND PREDESTINATION
[27]So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
[28]And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
Identity can be defined biblically in terms of how God sees us and what He does for us.
It also refers to the relationship He has with us and the destiny He appoints for us.
God made us who we are so that we can make known to our world who He is.
Our identity is actually for the sake of showing who our Daddy is.
We are therefore branded in order to promote Him.
Identity therefore basically refers to who you are.
CHILD OF GOD, WHO ARE YOU?
The answer to the question of "who you are" is the answer to the crisis of life.
As we travel through scripture, we will discover that crisis submits to identity.
The failure of Adam and Eve was the failure of identity.
Satan marketed to them what they already had.
He told them that if they eat the fruit of that tree, they would be like God.
What they didn't know was that they were already exactly like God.
They lost their greatest battle on the grounds of a distorted identity.
Beloved, do you really know who you are?
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
