A Christ Follower: The Journey

We know that God's children do not make a  practice of sinning; For God's Son holds them securely, and the Evil One Cannot touch them . 1 John 5:18 NLT Here is the Word of truth that clearly talks about your identity and my identity in Christ . It tells us how this being a God empowered child of God has a life changing impact on us. Get this right in your heart and head, and the devil cannot make you do anything wrong nor defeat you. You just have to believe the truth about who you are; for example, in the last blog, I told you how that receiving Jesus gives you the power of God to be a child of God, and with this power, comes a life change in which your spirit is resurrected and connected with God's spirit. Since you are connected with God's Holy Spirit, you have what the Greek language calls "dynamos"  power or dynamite power.

They failed in claiming the blessings of the

Hey Christ-Followers, Who are you? What is your identity? How is your identity affecting your everyday life? All these are good questions because how you view yourself is how you just might live out your life; for example, a child told all their life, "You will never amount to anything," will have difficulty excelling in life. This is so because their self view is that they cannot do much, be much and that they are NOT much. Our prisons are packed with people drowned in this deluge of demonic verbal poison.
