Publisher's Synopsis
I am writing this book in hopes of illuminating who you are in Christ, this is a journey of discovery and rooting out the lies that entangle the Truth concerning your real identity. When you come unto God, receive Jesus into your heart you receive two important identity labels. The first one of course is that of child or Son of God. John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the Sons of God, (even) to them that believe on his name." Galatians 3:26 "For ye are all the Children of God by faith in Christ Jesus." Romans 8:17 "And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs of Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together."The second of course is a disciple of Christ as we journey daily to learn and discover all we can about our Kingdom of Heaven identity and citizenship. Unlocking who we are in Christ and who God is in us, threw us and too us. Ephesians 4:16 "From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work." Matthew 4:19 "Come follow me, Jesus said, and I will send you out to fish for people." John 12:26 "Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me."1 Peter 2:21 "For you have been called for this purpose, since Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example for you to follow in His steps." Matthew 11:29 "Take my yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."Sometimes we have not found rest in our souls because we are in identity crisis, confused concerning who we are and our purpose. Not to mention we are heavy laden with things of our past, abuses and experiences; coupled with the fact that we take and learn from man, and doctrines of man more than from God. We must be more diligent about learning from Him- God. I could miss it, I could lead you astray, any leader could do likewise, even unintentionally. But God never will lead you astray and will only teach you by His Spirit what the Father does say. Therefore, we so desperately need Truth in our inward parts and need to have a daily relationship with the Spirit of Truth. So, we can be released from everything that has entangled our identity in Christ and thus held hostage our purpose and destiny. Psalm 51:6 "Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom." We must listen to the Spirit of God concerning who we are in Christ, know His heart concerning our identity and purpose. May the Spirit of Truth release unto you these Truths. 1 John 5:6 "This is the One who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not with the water only, but with the water and with the blood it is the Spirit who testifies because the Spirit is the Truth."
