010 Relax and Reflect on Who You Are in Christ

In this episode, I read 70 scriptures on our identity in Christ
with piano music in the background.  So relax and reflect on
your true identity in Christ.  I also share a few minutes
first before I start speaking the scriptures so I if you would
like to start with the scripture reading with piano music go to
the 6-minute mark and about 45 seconds in.


Hi, everyone. Welcome to today's episode about our identity in
Christ. Today, most of the scriptures I will be reading are in
the New American Standard Bible. Some are King James Bible, some
are New Living Translation, but there are about 70 verses that
I'm going to read.


And for me in my life, I read these every day, twice a day. And
there was a season about a year ago that I was going through kind
of a valley experience. And I was reading all 70 of these three
times a day. And what's amazing is they're not even scriptures on
healing, per se. They're more on who we are in Christ and our
identity in Christ and what's amazing is they brought me out of
that valley along with people and prayer and teaming up with
people who prayed for me. But, you know, every day, I had to keep
feeding myself the scriptures the word, and it was powerful. And
you know, even Jesus focused on his identity. In Luke three, it
tells us when John baptized Jesus, and then in verse 22, it says,
the Holy Spirit descended upon him, in bodily form, like a dove
and a voice came out of heaven, "Thou art my beloved Son, in
thee I am well pleased." 


Then in Luke 4 Jesus for 40 days, being tempted by the enemy, and
he ate nothing during those days. And when they had ended, he
became hungry. The enemy said to him, "If you are the Son of God,
tell this stone to become bread.


And two things I want to point out that the very first temptation
that the enemy gave Jesus was questioning if he was the Son of
God, if he knew his identity, and I think if some of you think
about it, that you've had that same temptation, wondering, are
you really a daughter or a son of God? And the interesting thing
is, that the enemy didn't say, Are you the beloved Son of God,
which is what God told him before he went into the desert. He
just said, Are you the Son of God? And then what did Jesus
do? And all three temptations in Luke four that the enemy came at
him with, He returned all three with scripture. And so I am such
a word girl. I love the word of God. It's powerful.


I've been healed by the word of God just reading the Word of God.
It's, just alive and it's active. And God always knows what we
need it when we need it. And so today I'm going to share these
scriptures with you. And like I said, there are 70 verses, but
again, I'm not going to read them, the addresses, you know the
location of each verse, what I'm going to do is put those in the
show notes and you can get a copy of that at my website gotbbb.
And that's gotbbb.org. And you'll see all my podcast episodes.
And then you'll be able to read the show notes right below the
podcast episode. And so I'm going to just go ahead and start and
bear with me if you hear some paper rustling because obviously
there's a lot of verses and I had to print them out so it'd be
easy to read to you.


But just sit back and just relax. And just listen to these verses
of who you are in Christ because of what Jesus did on the cross.
And how God sees us and who we are to God and our relationship to
God all because of what Jesus did for us. And because we're in
him, and they're in us, all these things are true. And some of
these verses I will be saying are just like, really amazing. And
almost like, really like, Wow. I mean, like, you could study one
verse for a whole week to get the understanding and the full
meaning of it. But for right now, I just want to share these
scriptures with you because they've been so powerful in my own
life. And I know that they can bless you.


So we're going to start with Romans three, verse 24. But that'll
be the last time I give you the verse therein, from now on, I'll
just be reading.
