Knowing Who You Are in Christ
The enemy of your mind has nothing good for you to know.
The enemy’s intent is to make himself first and foremost the ruler over your thoughts.
Every slight you may have experienced in your life is his weapon of mind destruction to break off the anchor you have had in The LORD’s Power in your life.
Stand fast therefore in the liberty in which Christ has made you free and be not entangled again in the yoke of bondage, being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.
Recognize what you are giving attention to. Though the enemy come in, like a flood the Spirit of The LORD will raise up a standard against him.
The LORD is the restorer of your path in life. There is nothing too difficult for The LORD.
Your adversary the devil is roaming about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. Resist him therefore, firm and steadfast in your Faith, for you know that your brothers in the world are experiencing the same kinds of things.
The devil is a LIAR. Take your stand against him and send him fleeing from you. For where The Spirit of The LORD is there is freedom.
Know who you are in Christ. You are the redeemed of The LORD.
Say that:
I am the redeemed of The LORD!
I belong to my Redeemer.
I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.
I am holy because He is Holy.
I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me.
My God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in glory.
I am filled with power, with the Spirit of The LORD, and with justice and might.
I am dwelling in the secret place of the Most High.
The LORD is my strength and my song. He has become my salvation.
The LORD is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?
I am more than a conqueror through Him Who loves me.
The LORD gives me beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness, that I may be a Tree of Righteousness, the planting of The LORD so that He will be glorified.

We all need to speak the word of who we are. Great word Thomas. Blessings, Sandi Holman
I really love this word. So often I have allowed myself to be bowed down and preoccupied by thoughts that can leave me powerless- or certainly feeling so. I was only reminded last night of Matthew 11 verse 28 where our Lord Jesus Christ teaches us – “Come to Me all you are heavy laden and I will give you rest.” I feel the emphasis is upon the “heavy laden” ! How often do we allow ourselves to carry heavy loads – when all we need do is come before the Lord and begin to off load them. Thank you for posting this Thomas.
Especially at what is happening in the world. I love Thomas, his tender heart, his encouraging words of wisdom. God bless everyone. Stay strong in the Lord, and the power of HIS might.
