Each of us is created and made in the image of God. We have a unique place in the world and a unique place in the purposes of God. You were created to do only what you can do through Christ.
We should be confident in the overcoming power of God – Because Christ lives in us we have the resurrection power of Christ living in us. We have been raised with Christ and we are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Our confidence is that God lives in us through Christ and we know that He will never leave us or forsake us.
Touching people with the love, purity and hope of Christ – We are the hands of Christ, we are Christ to this world. When we are in Him, we touch the world with the love of God, we give the world the purity of God and we bring to everyone the hope of God.
“because as he is, so are we in this world.” – 1 John 4:17 – In everything we do, how we think, and do, our role is to show people Christ and this is natural because Christ lives in us and we live in him. It is NOT a “DO”, but a “BE”. We are united with Christ, we part of his body and as He is so now are we.
Innocence is always under attack – We are in a battle for our mind and our thoughts and this battle is to rob us of our innocence. – “ whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” – Philippians 4:8
The way we think and perceive things in the spirit withers as we become guarded, wary, mistrust, and suspicious. – It is so important that we renew our minds to the truth of our new creation birth. That we nourish, nurture, and protect the life of Christ within us and the knowledge of all Christ is. Satan wants us to live a life of mistrust and he is the master of causing unbelief. But Christ lives in every believer, the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives in us. We are never separated from God.
Innocence is a quality we are born with but slowly lose through the experiences of life. – It is the innocence of our New Creation Nature that Satan and the world desperately ties to corrupt. Every experience in life has been set before us to grind us down and take away our innocence. Satan tries every plan to steal, kill and destroy, he tries every effort to rob us of our New Creation perspective and give us his worldly perspective.
Grace and Mercy has birthed us into Innocence
Through our New Creation birth into Christ we have entered into all Christ won at the cross and this kills all Adam lost for us in the Garden of Eden. We are now re-born as New Creation and receive the innocence of Christ. Now as Christ was born without sin from the incorruptible seed of God, we to are New Creation re-born into Christ without sin by the incorruptible seed of Christ. – “having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the living and abiding word of God.” 1 Peter 1:23
We are ambassadors of the grace and mercy of God. We are ambassadors that God is not counting men’s sins against them.
We are to bring heaven to earth – Our “commission” is to reveal the grace, mercy, goodness, and kindness of God so that everyone can see that a loving God has done everything in His power to bring them into an abundant and eternal life. This revelation of God’s overflowing heart of compassion and love was given so that everyone would be encouraged to repent and let God change and bring new birth into their lives. To take them from a consciousness birthed in Adam to a consciousness now birthed in Christ.
