So what is this
OUR IDENTITY IN CHRIST ?
Tbh there's allot about our identity in Christ like:-
Or
But what I would talk about here is as touching Prolonged Deficiency which the Fact that we are MORE THAN CONQUERORS.
Romans 8:37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
This verse gives me great joy
Popular verse but mostly not fully understood.
Imagine fighting a battle that has already been won for you well that's what many of us believers are doing, instead of acknowledging our victory in Christ and basking in it we choose to keep struggling with no headway. Christ has won already, our battle is not for victory rather it is from Victory following as prescribed by Christ and securing His victory for ourselves. Literally being more than CONQUERORS places us above sin and death.
Though the enemy roars around us, though temptations come our ability to understand - they're all failed attempts to get us to renounce our identity - will aid us to be calm and find the way God has provided with which we could establish our victory in Christ.,
SOME PRACTICAL TOOLS TO HELP US WITH SIN AND PROLONGED DEFICIENCY
* Flee every appearance of evil.
1 Thessalonians 5:22
Abstain from all appearance of evil.
This here requires allot of sincerity. Don't think or calculate first just flee the moment you see something appearing as evil, don't wait to find out just flee for by the you realize it is truly evil the evil would have caught up with you.
* you must take note always when fleeing to flee to God's presence.
Psalm 91
Many flee from one evil straight into another evil cause they neglect the presence of God, not knowing if only they can find God's presence His shadow covers them offering them safety.
*Obedience (God has something to say)
"Our ability to meticulously follow God's will not only secure us in His Presence but also shield us from sin".
Using Psalm 23 as case study
23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Shows us that actually it is by choice we wander into the valley of the shadow of death (thou sometimes subconsciously) and that happens when we stop following in obedience.
See
*Faith (Believe):-
-In the finished work of Christ
-and banish fear which has Doubt
-In the word of God
Lastly
*LOVE
The pedestal upon which all I've said stands on is Love.
Love sums it all up The laws and the Prophets. God himself is Love.
- You can only flee enticing appearances of Evil when you Love God and won't want to grieve Him.
- You'll make God's presence your perpetual habitat when you Love Him.
- Jesus said " a token of your Love is seen in your willingness to obey". John 14:5
- You can trust/believe wholeheartedly who you love.
Love.
Truth is you can actually live above and without the Weight of sin, sickness, satanic oppression not just mere words but that's How we Should Live.
