Recognize Your Position:
I. Reconciled- “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation” (II Corinthians 5:17-18.) You are no longer a stranger.
II. Redeemed- “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree” (Galatians 3:13.) You are no longer a slave.
III. Regenerated- “And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins” (Ephesians 2:1.) You are no longer spiritually dead.
I am fearful that too many believers live defeated lives when they should be living victoriously in and through their Saviour Jesus. Begin today to be and live who you are in Christ. We do not name it and claim it. We read it and receive it from God’s Word!
