But you are
God's "chosen generation",
his "royal priesthood", his
"holy nation,
his "peculiar
people"..
1Peter 2:9
The
definition of identity is the distinguishing character or personality of an
individual.
When we
want to travel out of country we have to show proof of our identity. We have to travel with a passport. The
passport tells who we are, all of our alias must be listed and a picture of you
is also required.
The Word of
God is our passport showing us proof of our identity. That is our identity in Christ. In our passport we have written in it all of
our names. Chosen generation, Royal priesthood a Holy nation, peculiar people, a Child of the Most High God, the
Righteousness of Christ, Difference maker, Light of the world and the Salt of
the earth. It tells us we are the Head
and not the Tale. We are above and not beneath.
What we put our hands to it is blessed.
There are hundreds of scriptures that tell our identity.
Our
identity is not our title in life
(doctor, lawyer, server, husband, wife, daughter, mother, father etc.) those
titles do not define who we are. It is
our Jesus who has defined who we
are. We must never forget our true
identity our identity in Christ.

Here is the song for today...Hope it blesses you!
It makes us wonder when we think about it seriously and with the thoughts of God in mind how we could ever second guess who we are since we are identified by Christ with his everlasting love.
