Who Am I in Christ?

- [ ] Can others recognize your gift before you do.

Sometimes we don't see in ourselves what others can see in us.

- [ ] How can one find their gifts in adversity.

Many at times, we allow our circumstances/poverty get in the way of our true purpose.

- [ ] How to Pray for the help to recognize your gifts.

It’s easy to say I will pray but actually not knowing how or what to say discouraged us.

- [ ] Don't be afraid to branch out.

We are more confident and comfortable within our circle, that we sometimes be afraid to step out of comfort zone.

- [ ] How easy is it to Search for God word.

When we are at the place of recognition, our first thought is, can I do this? The mean question should be how to not forgot to put our focus on searching his (God) word.

- [ ] Look outside yourself, the bigger picture.

It’s easy to be misled by our physical body that has nothing to do with your spiritual strength.

- [ ] Think about people you look up to.

Actually for this, one person I always look up to apart from God first and mom Rebecca, is Mrs Wilson. She has been a role model to me and my start up ministry.

- [ ] Reflect on your family.

Reflecting on the foundation of your ministry is your family and how they play a huge role in your life.

Finally, who are you in Christ?

POV 16:7

Psalm 82:6

1 John 3:8

Pastor hezekiah is my pastor of great words of wisdom. Book Recomended is from pastor Rick warren title: A purpose driven life.

What is driving you?

Four things that are driving people

1. Goal

2. Greed

3. Fear

“But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,”

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭1:15‬ ‭KJV‬‬

according to his purposes. ... Psalm 57:2 says, “I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me.” This is key in understanding God's purpose for your life.

Different between goal and purpose

Goal (replace goal with calling) can be called as the point one wishes to achieve. On the other hand, purpose can be called as the reason one aims at to achieve a goal. Unlike purposes, goals always go forward in a specific direction. Purpose, which is all about direction.

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭1:7‬ ‭KJV‬‬

What are others name for purpose driven

A purpose-driven individual has some key traits: They have a vision or an aspiration of the work that they love. They can talk about the impact they want to create, bigger than themselves.

Definition and example of a purpose driven life.

Purpose is defined as to plan or intend to do something. An example of purpose is someone deciding to fully follow God well and by doing so, they are making a commitment to Proclaim God word to many who are lost.

“First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.”

‭‭Romans‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭KJV‬‬

We are product of our past but not prisoner of our past.

Fear is a false evidence appearing to be real

We all know that, the Bible brings healing to one self that’s why, it is good to always refer back to the Bible. Discouragement,anxious/anxiety, seared and defeated are all dark moments of our life that we need to shift from and turn to God our comforter. So join me as we look at Bible verses that favorite the true meaning of God plan for our lives. Romans 8:38. John 12:46. 2 Timothy 1:7. Philippine 4:6-7. Psalm 56:3. And Luke 15:1-32

Plasm 121 I meant. Join me as we celebrate the goodness of the lord and the beginning of great works. he (God) is about to go in our lives and changed things around for our good.

From my heart, I’m getting weaker by the day. So, I’m asking each and everyone of you for your help in praying for strength to do the work of God. and thanks

It was a great time interviewing Mrs. Joyce Lewis today. You can tell that, I was nervous but to the glory of God, we were able to pull through. Also I encourage each and everyone of you to please go and purchase her book that is available on our podcast.

Join me let us listen to God word.

“What more do I need?

When I got you I feel complete

I can feel Your presence around me

It’s the best gift under the tree”

Praise God for the gift He gives us in himself. What could the human heart desire more than to be unconditionally loved, eternally secure, and made righteous before a Holy God? If we take account of even a few of the gifts God gives us, we'll see just how determined He is to satisfy us in himself.

There is such power in those gifts! All you need to do to enjoy them is open your heart to God and receive them, like a child on Christmas morning. You don’t even have to wait. You can start unwrapping His gifts right now!

- [ ] The Gift of Peace

Jesus―the Prince of Peace―wants us to have His peace in every part of our lives, at all times. Let's look at what John 14:1 says: "Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.” Instead of hanging on to worry, anxiety, fear or frustration, you can receive His gift of supernatural peace. Moment by moment, day by day, I encourage you to put your trust in God. As you go through the process of releasing your worries and cares to Him, you will find a peace that surpasses all understanding.

- [ ] The Gift of Joy

Fullness of joy is found not in God’s presents, but in His presence. That’s why the Bible says we can have inexpressible, glorious, triumphant, heavenly joy no matter what is happening around us. One of the easiest ways to increase your joy and the joy of others is to keep your heart and mind focused on God and His Word. As you carry out your daily responsibilities and activities, ask God to help you and lead you. Then relax in the overwhelming, empowering joy of the Lord—joy that cannot be fully explained or understood!

- [ ] The Gift of Righteousness

Righteousness is right standing with God. When we accept Jesus, He gives us the gift of His righteousness, and by faith we are made right with God. You don’t have to worry about making mistakes. God knows you will make them! But because of Jesus, you can rest in His righteousness. As you unwrap this incredible gift, I encourage you to pray with boldness. Remember, He does not hear or answer our prayers because we are good; He hears and answers because He is good!

- [ ] The Gift of Hope

Hope is an extraordinary gift. It allows us to experience peace and joy as we simply believe God’s Word and the promises it holds. Romans 15:13 (AMPC) says that by the power of the Holy Spirit, we can overflow or “bubble over” with hope. Although we can’t prevent negative feelings from ever showing up, we can quickly chase them away by choosing hope-filled thoughts, words and actions.

Our hope is in Christ, and He will never fail us.

- [ ] The Gift of Faith

Faith in God brings a supernatural rest into our souls, allowing us to live simply and freely, the way He wants us to live. Trust doesn’t just happen in our relationship with God, but grows as we come to know Him more personally, take steps of faith and experience His faithfulness. It is a gift that is often released through the power of prayer and thanksgiving. I encourage you to ask God to help you develop a deeper trust in Him, and then thank Him in advance for the gift of faith He has given you.

- [ ] The Gift of Love

God's Word teaches us to love everyone, including ourselves. As you receive God’s love and learn to love yourself by seeing yourself through God’s eyes, then you will be able to love others the way God loves them. God’s love is a wondrous gift that He freely gives us. We can’t earn it and we don’t deserve it, yet He willingly and continually longs to express His love to us. All we need to do is open our hearts, believe His Word, and receive it with thankfulness. Believe that God loves you with an everlasting love, and then share that love with others.

Proverbs 28:1

The wicked flee when no one pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion.

Acts 28:31

Proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness and without hindrance.

Ephesians 3:12

In whom we have boldness and access with confidence through our faith in him.

Acts 4:31

And when they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness.

Acts 4:29

And now, Lord, look upon their threats and grant to your servants to continue to speak your word with all boldness.

1 Chronicles 28:20

Then David said to Solomon his son, “Be strong and courageous and do it. Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed, for the Lord God, even my God, is with you. He will not leave you or forsake you, until all the work for the service of the house of the Lord is finished.”
