Psalm 100:3 Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Identity crisis is a real issue.

Romans 8:15 NKJV “For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, ‘Abba, Father.’” Freedom – it’s what we all long for. Wars have been fought and revolutions have happened in the quest for freedom. Slaves used to be literally […]
Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it will be given to you; Seek, and you will find; Knock, and it will be opened to you. Charles Spurgeon beautifully wrote that faith asks, hope seeks and love knocks.

Romans 8:16 “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God.“ In Romans 8, Paul precisely describes the great work our God does in us through the Holy Spirit and our identity in Jesus Christ after we receive him through faith.

1 Peter 2:10 “Who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.” One of the key indicators of life is growth. As long as we live, our cells keep regenerating and we see a physical transformation in our bodies. Our minds […]
1 Corinthians 6:11(NKJV) “And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.” Many of us question our sense of self or identity especially when going through changes or stress. We may have heard […]
Galatians 3:26 “For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.” How would you respond to the question, “Who are you?” Children might respond with their names, their parents’ names, and perhaps their age or the class they’re in. Most adults tend to answer with their profession, marital status, and maybe the […]
