If you are a believer in Christ, you have already answered the most important question concerning your eternal destiny.
You have said yes to His proposal of eternal spiritual union (even though you might not have known it was a marriage proposal) and have actually and literally become the flawless bride of Christ.
But if you don’t know who you already are, you are going to live just as if these marvelous truths aren’t true.
And that’s a cryin’ shame, considering everything Christ went through to secure you in Him forever (Galatians 2:21).
Christian, lean in and listen to what your Spiritual Bridegroom has to say to you today about who you already are.
“My dearest darling, your spiritual heart is the essence of your being; it is who you are at the core.”
“Your soul is where you experience conscious thoughts, feelings, attitudes, desires, and choices.”
“These in turn influence your actions.”
“Your body is your physical house—where you experience this tangible world through your five senses of sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell, and express action.”
“Simply put, your spiritual heart is who you are and your soul and body are where you do who you are.“
“My greatest desire is that every person’s desperately sick and deceitful heart be replaced with a new spiritual heart through their belief into Me.”
“And once a person receives their new spiritual heart—their new spirit united with My Holy Spirit—all I want is one thing: for them to rely on My 24/7/365 indwelling Spirit to inspire and empower their new-heart living from the inside out.”
“The most wonderful news of all is that your new spiritual heart in Me is saturated with desires that perfectly match My heart’s desires.”
“You no longer want to sin.”
“Instead, you desire to glorify Me in all that you think, feel, say, and do.”
“Isn’t this absolutely liberating to realize?”
“Because the spiritual realm is unseen and unfelt with the physical senses, the degree to which you will live out your true identity (your new spiritual heart) will be the degree to which you live out who you believe you are, rather than simply who you are.”
“So the most important question for you, My beloved, is ‘Who do you believe you are?'”
“Your answer will determine whether you glorify Me by walking by My Spirit or quench My Spirit by walking according to the flesh.”
“Your answer will determine whether you live your days in wondrous delight in intimacy with Me or with senseless spiritual amnesia.”
“Ask my Spirit to illumine your mind with these phenomenal truths about who you already are.”
“You will be amazed (and grateful) as you daily witness the progressive expression of your true identity in Me!”
Dear reader, who do you believe you are?
