TEXT: 1 Peter 2:9 (NKJV)

“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”

THE WORD:

Today, many Christians are walking around not knowing who they really are—not naturally speaking, of course, but spiritually speaking. Once you are immersed in Christ through water baptism, you take on a new identity—His identity. Everything He is, you become. Because Jesus is an overcomer, you are an overcomer (1 John 4:4). Because Jesus is more than a conqueror, you are more than a conqueror (Romans 8:37).

You become empowered to do all things through Christ who gives you strength (Philippians 4:13). Let these words sink down deep in your heart today. Realize that because of Jesus, there is greatness inside you. As you continue to study and meditate on the Word of God, you will realize your true potential. You’ll discover who you really are so you can live the good life to which He has called you.

PRAYER:

Father, thank You for choosing me. Thank You for loving me and calling me according to Your purposes. I receive Your promises as I resolve to discover my potential through Your truth in Jesus’ Name. Amen
