Identity
Everyone has a “true identity” in the kingdom of God.
The first step is to know God intimately (love him, be with him, and hear his voice). The next step is to know who you are in Him. In other words, you need to know what God says about you and discover who you are according to what he thinks.
Things to discover about yourself:
You have citizenship in God’s kingdom.
You have an inheritance according to your relationship with God.
God has called you to be something and he will commission you and equip you to fulfill it.
Your personal growth (coming into the fullness of your identity) is not limited by another man’s opinion. You are responsible to discover and live into your own identity.
Everyone else has an identity too.
We must see each other through God’s eyes. We must develop spiritual senses and not rely on our physical ones. You can affirm and confirm another’s identity, but nobody can dictate who someone else is.
