Your Indentity!

Are you letting your struggles identify you? Is misery your identity?
In our lives, challenges and trials are plentiful. They are indeed inescapable. The bible says that we will all face them:

James 1:2-3
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness

This verse is not instructing us to celebrate after every trial but it is encouraging and reminding us of our Heavenly rewards to come to those who persevere. But has complaining about those trials become your routine course of action? In other words has misery become your identity?
You see the devil would like nothing better in making your struggles become your identity. He's trying to persuade some to give up. He has fallen and wants to draw as many Christians to him.

1 Peter 5:8
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.

Mark 4:17
And they have no root in themselves, but endure for a while; then, when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately they fall away.

Don't believe any of the devil's lies. You are victorious through Jesus!

John 16:33
I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.

1 John 5:4
For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

Don't let the devil keep you in misery! Our faith in Jesus is our victory.
Jesus is your identity!

I bless the Lord our God for giving us an eternal identity in which no one will be able to take away from us. I identify with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who died for me on Calvarys cross. I shall forever bless His holy name. Amen

Alleluia! Thank you Kathie for sharing.

There will be trouble and tribulations when you identify with Jesus. He was persecuted and rejected by men but He continue to preach and teach Gods word. If we are faithful to the end, then, a Crown of Life will be put on our head a reward of being faithful and true to Him who has called us from darkness to the light of Jesus.

With Jesus by my side, I conquer everything. I am a Victor and not a victim, I am a winner and not a looser in Jesus name. Amen
