TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
Today, many people are
walking around not knowing who they really are. Not naturally speaking, of
course, but spiritually speaking. Once you receive Jesus Christ as your
personal Lord and Savior, you take on a new identity — His identity.
Everything He is, you become. Because Jesus is an overcomer, you are an
overcomer (1 John 4:4). Because Jesus is more than a conqueror, you are more
than a conqueror (Romans 8:37). You become empowered to do all things through
Christ who gives you strength (Philippians 4:13)!
Let these words sink down
deep in your heart today. Realize that because of Jesus, there is greatness
on the inside of you. As you study and meditate on the Word of God, you will
realize your true potential. You’ll discover who you really are so you can
live the good life He has called you to!

The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
