God Identifies Us By Giving His Holy Spirit
A powerful & important reminder this morning via Don Boyd’s message at our Friday Morning Men’s Group:
13 And now you Gentiles have also heard the truth, the Good News that God saves you. And when you believed in Christ, he identified you as his own by giving you the Holy Spirit, whom he promised long ago. (â€Ephesians‬ â€1‬:â€13‬ NLT)
Identity is so important and I’m thinking about it more as our kids get older. I want to define my identity in Christ. I need to seek guidance and direction from God and His Holy Spirit. Today especially, My eyes are open to the direction God wants me to go in my life.
I know sometimes God brings us into situations of great discomfort to shift our thinking and behavior into a new direction. I think sometimes we bring ourselves into those situations by our own poor choices, but God has mercy on us and lifts us up with His grace when we call upon His name.
Please pray for me to have faith in the promises and truth of God and His word.
It is dark in the valley, but there is light & help above in the heavens.
