Would your attitude and behavior change if you found out that you were royalty - joint-heirs with a powerful king? Not just any king, but the king of all the universe, time, and eternity?! Well, my friend, if you have been born-again into new life in Christ Jesus, you are royalty! You are a new creation in Christ Jesus! Understanding our identity is key to walking in victory. If you are born-again, a believer and follower of Christ, you are “a new creation - the old is gone and behold all things are made new” (2 Corinthians 5:17)! It doesn’t matter who your biological family is, what color your skin is, how rich, poor, intelligent or simpleminded you are - or even how “bad” of a life you have lived. In Christ, you are a new creation. However, unless you begin to believe and walk out your new identity, you can never experience that new life. Grab your Bible, look up these verses, and begin working them into your heart and mind. Memorize them. Believe them. Live them out. It’s who you are in Christ! Change your mindset. Renew your mind and let your “identity” be found in the truths of these Scriptures. Print this out and put it everywhere: your fridge, your bathroom mirror, your bedside, take a picture and keep it in your phone. Hide the Word of God in your heart (Ps.119:11) and watch it transform your life (Romans 12:2)!!
