Find Yourself in Christ

Nov 5, 2023    Andy Fuqua

In this powerful exploration of identity, we're challenged to reconsider how we define ourselves. The central message is clear: our identity is given by God, not created by us. Through examples like Abraham, Sarah, Jacob, and Paul, we see how God often redefines a person's identity, giving them new names and purposes. This isn't just ancient history – it's a living truth for us today. As followers of Christ, we're called to find our identity in Him, accepting who God says we are. The scripture emphasizes that in Christ, we are new creations, God's masterpieces, more than conquerors, and beloved children of God. This perspective shift is transformative, freeing us from societal pressures to define ourselves and instead embracing our God-given identity. It's an invitation to ask God, 'Who do You say that I am?' and to discover our unique role in His kingdom. This message is deeply relevant in our culture of self-definition, reminding us that true fulfillment comes from aligning with God's view of us.
