Jesus Made You Who You are In Him: His plans and Purpose: Identity in Christ 4/6/26 Frame Your Week w/the Word

Identity in Christ. The only thing that qualifies anyone to have a relationship with God, is our IDENTITY in CHRIST. And our identity in Christ is exactly the SAME for all believers, Jew and Gentile, Male and female. Anything else that you ADD to your identity in Christ is something that takes away from Jesus's finished work and creates division within the body. Key ideas:Who we are in Christ is eternal.It is dependent on Jesus' work, not our own backgrounds.Jesus's death, burial and resurrection and His blood on the mercy seat is what gives us a relationship with God as our Father.We are new creations in Christ, with God in us, by the 2nd birth. 2 Cor. 5:17We are His righteousness. 2 Cor. 5:21We are His ambassadors. 2 Cr. 5:20We are His workmanship created to do good works which He prepared in advance for us to do. Eph. 2:10We each have a book written in heaven for each of us that was written before the foundation of the earth, before our parents met or before the pastor knew your first name.People do not write our purposes and destinies, God does. Jesus does and He discusses them with the angelic and they are commissioned to do whatever it takes behind the scenes to bring them to pass, especially when things have gone wrong.Acts 17, God has put the exact people He wants on the earth right now and given us each assignments to do.MOst of the time we will have little to no idea how what any of us does impacts the people around us or fits into His overall plan.The idea is to keep our daily life simple and just live unto the Lord.Remember, the First Easter message was given to a woman to deliver to a group of men. Jesus simply does not prioritize male servants over women servants. That is the world that does that.Whoever you are, if you belong to Jesus, He has placed His spirit in you that is the pull that is giving you the desire to reach the world around you for Him. Listen to His Spirit and just work with Him.People do not tell you who you are in Christ, the Word does.Need more help?We have a good book on Identity in Christ as well as other books that can help at: H2:2 Ministries: https://h2two.org/bookstore-and-partners#Jesus #identityInChrist #workmanship #sons #daughters #ambassadors #CovenantGod #covenantofIncrease #covenantofrecompense #recompense #divinerecompense #double #doubleforyourtrouble #SaraShallenberger #h2two
