In Him I Am

Faulty Formula We Often Live By:

MY PERFORMANCE + OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS = MY SIGNIFICANCE

 2 Transforming Truths about our Identity in Christ:

1. In Christ, We Are Redeemed!

“In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.” Ephesians 1:7-8

“For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.” I Peter 1:18-19

Your Wounds Don’t Define You; His Wounds Do!

Your Wounds Don’t Determine Your Value And Significance; His Wounds Declare Your Value And Significance!

2. In Christ, We Are Royalty!

“In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory.” Ephesians 1:7-12

“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.  Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.” I Peter 2:9-10

Our Royalty Is Rooted In The Reality That We Are Redeemed By Him And For Him!

“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.” Revelation 12:11

When Satan Whispers That You Are A Wreck; Remember That The Blood Of Jesus Screams You Are Redeemed And You Are Royalty!
