TOPIC: Don’t Doubt Your Identity In Christ (TREM Devotional 21 September 2023)

“For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.” Acts 27:23-24 (KJV)

Wisdom For The Day MESSAGE:

One of the old tricks of the devil is to make you doubt your identity in Christ. For as long as you know who you are in Christ, the devil would not be able to put you in a panic mood. The Apostle Paul knew who he was and that was why he was never afraid of any situation or circumstance he found himself. In the book of Acts chapter 27, Apostle Paul was on board a ship alongside other prisoners on a journey to Rome. On their way, a storm arose threatening the lives of all on board, but Paul was not moved nor shaken. He was rather bold enough to speak to the people amid the crisis. You will notice in the Bible passage that “Whose I am’’ came before “I serve”. What is that saying to you? It simply means your relationship with God must come before your service. When you know your identity, you will stand strong no matter what obstacle the devil brings your way.

When you know your identity and walk in the consciousness of that identity, you will achieve more for yourself and the Kingdom. You would no longer be a pushover for the devil. Knowing who you are in Christ also means knowing what Jesus purchased on your behalf, why He died and the benefits of His death, burial, and resurrection. When you know these, then you can access your full potential in Him.

The Bible doesn’t say those who are saved are strong. No! It says those who know their God. Knowing God is knowing who you are, how strong you are, how blessed you are, how favored you are, how safe you are, how secure you are, and how powerful you are in Him. When you know and are persuaded of these truths, the enemy cannot easily run you over.
