             Identity

 Ephesians 4:23--to be made new in the attitude of your minds, and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

         I can remember as a young teenager having the responsiblity of taking care of my duties around the house, my chores which what I didn't realize was preparing me for real, everday living. There were times when I had to sacriface playing with my friends, riding my bike to help with more than I was assigned to do because my mother was in the hospital and I had become the women of the house. This brought on another identity for me and my role in the family. This is the perfect example we can see in our lives in the kingdom of God, for each of us has our own identity to serve in the house of the Lord know matter how enormous or small we all are seen to be beneficial to God, our new attitude in Christ has brought us into a totally different relationship with others thus the work we are assigned to complete gives us joy and a indwelling peace for we are a new creature. Thus we see with this new attitude we find renewal and a strength we never believed possible. We are seen as a reflection of His wonderful light for we are reflecting off of His light. Jesus our comforter and strength has equipped us as compassionate givers and receivers for what He has done for us and our identity in Him. This new and extrodinary life can and will bring about miracles and wonders in your life and God's pleasing gift, His Son, Jesus Christ.

    Scripture : Psalm 23

   

      The Lord is my shepherd : I shall not want. 

 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures : he leadth me beside the still waters. 

  He restoreth my soul : he leadeth me on the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 

  Yea,  though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil : for thou art with me: thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. 

   Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies : thou anointest my head with oil: my cup runneth over. 

   Surely  goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

         Scripture : Colossians 1:15

                In His Hands

    Looking at the life of a newborn child can be the most incredible event one can ever witness, to stare into  the face of a new life, a new creation and yet everyday we have the opportunity to see it in those we pass by, not knowing the history or testimony of their life but to see that it was God's purpose that they are here to fulfill His will in some capacity. 

     God has placed us on the potters wheel that He may create within us His pleasure that we might be the image of He that gave us breathe and knowledge  that our purpose may be seen in the actions of our life to prove that we are children of the Most High God  and He has given us purpose and being for we are the image of the Living God. 

      He has laid His hands on every difficult situation, event and cause that we may grow into spiritual maturity to be used for even greater accomplishments to give Him honor and glory. Even now as we are preparing to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ we are yet reminded of the plans of God and the mission set before His Son to reconcile us back into Himself, for we are redeemed and through Christ we are made new by the shedding of His blood. 

What uplifting news to know that His hands have been on my life all the time, that even in the struggles He was holding my hand.  In this scripture it let's us know that nothing is to hard for Him and the answer to everything is found in the name, Jesus.

Scripture                   Isaiah 61:1-- 3               The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,  because the Lord has anointed me to bring good news to the poor: he has sent me to bind up the broken hearted,  to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound.: to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God: to give them a beautiful  headdress  instead  of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the garment  of praise  instead of a faint  spirit : that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified.

      Let Us Kneel

 1Peter 1:3-8 Blessed  be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 

In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials., so that the tested genuineness of your faith -------may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 

Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls. 

         In looking at the upcoming event we like to call as Thanksgiving, a day where we share in the unity of brotherhood between all nations but in particular this nation as we sit at the table of peace and love may we look at the deeper meaning through the Holy Spirit that teaches us the meaning of our relationship with Jesus Christ and faith. Shall in all this we do not partake with the generous portions of food and drinks but the understanding of what He has done for us that we are brought back together with Him through His death on the cross being cleansed of our sins and being unified through the Holy Spirit that guides, teaches and gives us power that we may demonstrate our faith in action.

Isaiah 60:1 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord  has risen upon you. For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples: but the Lord will arise upon you, and his glory will be seen upon you. And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising. 

   What a joy that not just on this special day we call Thanksgiving Day but everyday we can share in the joyous unity of Jesus in our lives through the Holy Spirit because the power that raised Him also lives in us. The gift of eternal life and His relationship will never depart from us know matter if we depart from Him. He is faithful and His light of love shines forever on all that believe. What then shall we be thankful for?

      Wardrobe Malfunction 

   Scripture : Ephesians 6:10-18 (niv)

  Finally, be strong  in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand  against the devil's schemes. For  our struggle is not against  the rulers, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces  of evil  in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 

          Stand firm then, with the belt of truth  buckled around your waist, with the breastplate  of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness  that comes from the gospel of peace.  In addition to all this, take  up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit,which is the word of God.

And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always  keep on praying for all the saints. 

         In this detail description of the Christian soldier in which Paul shares with the Ephesians, it brings a descriptive interpretation of our battle gear. In the peak of battle when we feel all our attire as Christians is in place, we find that we have forgotten and left something unbuttoned, unzipped or even left off.  When we are out of tune with our walk with God, the enemy breaks through our peace, the everlasting joy which the Lord himself gave us, we become depressed, beaten,  confused about our life, the enemy even plants fear within our spirit when the issues of our life look darken and unsure. It seems that some part of us has become as shadows in our relationship with Christ even through all of His promises He has revealed time after time  this is when we have dropped our shield of faith compromising our walk with God, our trust and relationship with His ever presence. 

         God does understand our needs. He understands and knows the battles that confront our peace. He gives justice and mercy for His purpose and knows the battles that confront our peace  and to His choosing.

  "Who Are You In Christ? "

     Colossians 3:3 For you died,  and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 

       As the world continues to change and evolve, we as Christians seem at risk of losing our identity from the world's concept of what it believes we should be, in this concept we seem to be at risk of loosing our identity, our own  personal structure  of how God designed us In the entity of our relationship with God,the origin about us as humans seems to be questioned. In this battle between science and theological scholars to take the credit of humanities beginning. 

       In reading this powerful and eye opening scripture to some who look for physical and visual attributes to some this scripture doesn't seem to add up to the power to which it should gain a glorious factor of who we truly are. Yet we can look at the context of the message written by the apostle, Paul who has writtenmessage to the church, the Christian faith and the mystery of the Gospel of Jesus Christ yet unparalleled to the human eye those who have a relationship with Jesus through the Holy Spirit and the power of faith believe the promises of God. 

    It is when a person gives  his/her life to Christ they are a new person baptized by the Holy Spirit, filled and full of light and power in this we recognize "the new man" or "inner man" 

This is when the full text of the scripture unveils and approves worthy against any science or theologian that the Word of God never changes and that though we are changing it is by His will for those that believe are in Christ Jesus for He is in those that do believe and filtered in love.
