who i am

I KNOW WHO I AM I am God’s child (Rom. 8:16) I am a light in the world (Phil. 2:15) I am sealed by God (II Cor. 1:21-22) I am bought with a price (I Cor. 6:19,20) I am a saint (set apart for God) (Eph. 1:1) I am a personal witness of Christ (Acts 22:15) I have peace with God through Christ (Rom. 5:1) I have been saved in order to bear fruit (Rom. 7:4) I am a member of the Body of Christ (I Cor. 12:27) I am a citizen of Heaven living on earth (Phil. 3:20) I am free from any charge against me (Rom. 8:31-34) I am seated with Christ in the heavenly realm (Eph. 2:6) I have access to God through the Holy Spirit (Eph. 2:18) I am a minister of reconciliation for God (II Cor. 5:17-21) I cannot be separated from the love of God (Rom. 8:35-39) I am assured all things work together for good (Rom. 8:28) I may approach God with freedom and confidence (Eph. 3:12) I have been crucified with Christ and He liveth in me (Gal. 2:20) I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Phil. 4:13) I am God’s temple (I Cor. 6:19). I am complete in Christ (Col. 2:10) I have been justified (Rom. 3:24). I am hidden with Christ in God (Col. 3:3) I am God’s workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works (Eph. 2:10) I am confident that the good work God has begun in me will be perfected (Phil. 1:6) I am redeemed and forgiven (Col. 1:14). I have been adopted as God’s child (Eph. 1:5) I belong to God. Do you know. Who you are?

Without Christ you are blind and lost (II Cor. 4:3,4), but the good news is, God loves you and Christ died to pay for your sins (I Cor. 15:3,4). The only question is, do you believe He died to pay for your sins, or are you still trying to pay for them in your own way, by doing good works? God says, “to him that worketh not, but believeth on Him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness” (Rom. 4:5). Why not “believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved”(Acts 16:31).

the nobodies of this world

HOW SMALL WE ARE! by Cornelius R. Stam Printer Friendly Version Just behind me, in the supermarket check-out line, were two little boys. I noticed that the older one kept looking up at me and then down at his brother again several times in succession. Finally, nudging his little brother and pointing up at me, he said: "Hey, Joey, look how little you are!" Those who have seen me in the flesh know that I am not exactly small, physically, and I can easily imagine that, standing next to these little fellows, I made them look small indeed! But all this pertained only to the physical, and as I left that supermarket, I began asking myself: "How big are you, actually, in the sight of God?" I thought of Psalm 8:3,4, where David mused over the same question: "When I consider Thy heavens, the work of Thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which Thou hast ordained; what is man that Thou art mindful of Him...?" Yet we are so important to the heart of God that He entered ...
Scripture Reading: Romans 6:1-6 "To be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because THE CARNAL MIN D IS ENMITY AGAINST GOD: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. SO THE N THEY THAT ARE I N T H E FLESH CANNOT PLEASE GOD" (Romans 8:6-8). So many warnings throughout God's Word; so few who properly heed them! Thebelieverhasbeensufficiently enabledto resist the temptations of the worldly elements. His problem is that he neglects to maintain his focus upon the Person of Jesus Christ, thus lowering himself to the plane of the carnal creature of whom the psalmist says, "[He] will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts" (Psalms 10:4). Rather, the believer should follow the example expressed by David: "Search me, 0 God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts" (Psalms 139:23). "Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with Him , that the body of sin might ...
