Warriors for Christ: Who does God say I am?

Who am I? That's the question that we face today as Christians, as believers, as human beings. Who am I? This is my contact information on the screen. Do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions regarding this, if you need any resources. I question you. Do you feel like an outcast? Do you know who you are and who God says you are? Do you know your value, your worth as a believer, as a son or daughter of the Most High King? Or do you feel like an outcast? I don't belong. My voice doesn't matter. No one sees me. No one hears me. Why do I even dare go forward? No one sees me anyway. What do I have to truly live for? My voice doesn't matter. I try to speak up, but nobody listens. Who truly sees me? in my infirmary, in my weakness, in my depression, in my depravity? Who sees me? Let's look at God's word for guidance as to your true identity. And so that you know, you're seen, you're heard, You're treasured and you're valued. Isaiah sixteen four amplified. Let our outcast of Moab live among you. Be a sheltered hiding place to them from the destroyer. For the extortioner has come to an end. Destruction has ceased. Oppressors who trample men have completely disappeared from the land. Isaiah sixteen five had the amplified. A throne will be established in loving kindness, and one will sit on it in faithfulness in the tent, the dynasty or the family of David, judging and seeking justice and being prompt to do righteousness. Deception started in the Garden of Eden. Where our identity got questioned. When we look at Genesis three, where the serpent is speaking and he said to the woman, did God actually say? Did God actually say? How many times have you heard that whispered to you? Well, did God actually say that? Do you actually believe that you're chosen? Do you believe that you're a royal priesthood? Do you believe? Do you believe that you are fearfully and wonderfully made a daughter and son of the king? Who does God say you are? Who does God say you are? We only need to look at the cross to find our true identity, whose we are. When we look at Jesus's birth, his death, his resurrection, and his ascension to the right side of the Father, we have all the answers we need to conquer the negative voices, the negative influences that are trying to derail us in this season, in this year of darkness. We must understand that we are the light. We are the chosen generation, a royal priesthood. We are chosen. And by Jesus' work on the cross, we are victorious in Christ Jesus. We are more than conquerors. We are more than conquerors. We only need to believe it. Let's look at Luke two, eleven out of the Amplified Bible. For this day in the city of David, there has been born for you a savior who is Christ the Lord, the Messiah. Hosea three, five out of the Amplified Bible. Afterward, the sons of Israel will return in deep repentance and seek the Lord their God and seek from the line of David their king, the king of kings, the Messiah. And they will come trembling to the Lord and to his goodness and blessing in the last days. How many of you believe we're in the last days? How many of you believe the Messiah is coming? How many of you believe that your voice matters in this end time fight for souls, in this end time war for hope, for healing? How many of you believe your voice matters and that you have a place in this fight, that you were born for a purpose, that you have a purpose, that you are a purpose, that you are chosen, that God did choose you, that you are all that, that you do matter, that you do have influence? Your voice can change the world. But how many of you believe it? Let's look at Jude. Two. Jude one, A and two. Amplified Bible. To those who are the called, God's chosen ones, the elect, dearly loved. Some versions say beloved. by God the Father and kept secure and set apart for Jesus Christ. May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you, filling your heart with this spiritual well-being and serenity experienced by those who walk closely with God. And that is what the devil tried to destroy in the Garden of Eden. That relationship with Abba Father, where we walk so closely with God, where we are friends with God. where we are friends with God. We have relationship with God. We walk with God in the cool of the garden. We are his beloved. We are his chosen. He wants a relationship with us. He seeks us. He seeks our input. He wants to walk with us. He wants to hear our thoughts. He wants to see our heart. He wants to feel our heart. He wants our heart to be turned towards him because in him we live and have our being. In Him we live and have our being. Our identity is found in Christ Jesus. And Christ came to do the will of the Father and reveal the will of God for us by showing us what God the Father was like. He showed us what God the Father was like. And we step out in His authority. And we step out as chosen ambassadors. And we step out into the fullness of the promise of all that God has for us. recognizing that we do matter. We are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus. We have a heavenly identity. Earth is not our home. We are ambassadors of the kingdom of God, a royal priesthood. We are set apart and chosen to break others out of bondage, break them free of the condemnation of sin and death. Break them free of depression. Break them free of anxiety. Break them free of sickness. Break them free of the addictions that threaten to destroy them. Break them free of suicidal ideations. It is time that we break free. That we get Egypt out of us and realize that we are set apart. That we are empowered to prosper. That we are equipped through God's word. Through God's word. Through the death of Lord Jesus Christ. on the cross through his resurrection we have victory we have the power we just need to walk in it we need to believe it we need to amplify it and amplify our voice for all to hear we need to resist the culture of the world and step into who god has called us to be recognizing that abba father is a good father that he wants to be with us in the garden he wants to help us plant things and plant seeds that are going to grow into trees of righteousness for the kingdom's sake He wants us to step into who he's called us to be. We need to draw closer to God by spending time in his presence, through prayer, through reading the Bible, having him speak to us through his word, through praise, through worship. We need to draw closer to God. recognizing that it's all about relationship. When we're in relationship, we find our true identity, our purpose. We walk in it as ambassadors of the kingdom of God, as a royal priesthood, as daughters and sons of the king. The world does not define us. God defines us. We need to support each other through the storms of life. We need to grow in community. rise up rise up rise up rise up rise up rise up rise up rise up rise up rise up that is what he's saying to you today that is what he's saying to you today that is what he's saying to the church build each other up edify us edify us edify us strengthen us oh god help us to edify others help us to build up our brothers and sisters help us to walk in community help us to recognize our individual differences and step out in our authentic voices as human beings in this world of artificial intelligence in this world of artificial relationships synthetic voices let us be the real voice Let us be the real voice.
