#84 | Identity Issues | Romans 8:16 | The Great 8

One of the greatest battles you'll ever fight isn't a battle of circumstances—it's a battle of identity.Everybody has an identity. The question is: where did you get yours? Some people build their identity on success. Others build it on relationships, achievements, popularity, appearance, or performance. But when your identity is built on something temporary, it becomes unstable. The moment that thing disappears, your sense of worth begins to disappear with it. That's why Romans 8:16 is such good news: "The Spirit himself testifies together with our spirit that we are God's children."The Holy Spirit isn't just leading believers. He's continually reminding believers who they are. In a world full of labels and an enemy full of lies, the Spirit speaks a better word. He reminds us that our identity is not found in what we do, what happened to us, or what others say about us. Our identity is found in whose we are.In this episode, we unpack three powerful truths about identity:1. The World Gives Labels — Culture, success, failure, relationships, and other people's opinions are constantly trying to define who you are.2. The Enemy Gives Lies — Satan can't change your salvation, so he attacks your identity. His goal is to make sons live like orphans.3. The Spirit Gives Identity — The Spirit continually affirms what the gospel has already declared: you belong to God, you are loved, and you are His child.We'll also discuss why insecurity is often rooted in misplaced identity, how to recognize the lies you've been believing, and why the loudest voice in your life will ultimately determine how you see yourself.Because identity is not achieved.Identity is received.Key Scripture: Romans 8:16 (CSB)Send us Fan MailBook Derek Griffon to Speak at your next event https://www.derekgriffon.com/invite
