Herein
is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment:
because as he is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17).
Being
born again, you're a new creation in Christ Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:17), having
the life and nature of God in your spirit. See His description of you in 1
Peter 2:9: "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation,
a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called
you out of darkness into his marvellous light". You're peculiar, chosen,
royal, supernatural, and one of a kind! See yourself in this light.
The
Word of God is God's mirror, which He gave to you, so you can look and see who
you really are. For example, in His prayer to the Father, Jesus said
"...the glory which thou gavest me I have given them...(John 17:22);
that's God holding up His mirror for you to see that you're a partaker of His
glory. You've been glorified with Jesus.
Ponder
again on His description of you in 1 Peter 2:9: "But ye are a chosen
generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye
should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into
his marvellous light". You're chosen, royal and peculiar; you're unique
and special. You're the most celebrated of all God's creation; you're born of
His Word; and full of the Holy Ghost. He chose you to be the one to show forth
His praises and manifest His glory in the earth. What a calling! When
the Lord Jesus walked this earth, even though He laid aside His glory, He
walked gloriously. He lived and manifested the supernatural. He walked on
water, talked to the wind and the waves, unstopped deaf ears, opened blind
eyes, healed lame legs, restored maimed limbs, and even raised the dead. He was
extraordinary. He did all that He did to let us know that we have the same
ability within us to function likewise. The
same Holy Spirit that was the power and essence of Jesus lives in you today.
That means you can think, talk, walk, and act like Jesus. What a life!
PRAYER:
Dear Father, I thank you for your Word that has lifted and placed me on a
pedestal beyond the ordinary. I acknowledge my special place in Christ and
declare that my life is a manifestation of your glory even as I live and walk
in the supernatural today, and always, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
Further
Study: 1 Peter 2:9 AMP But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a
dedicated nation, [God’s] own purchased, special people, that you may set forth
the wonderful deeds and display the virtues and perfections of Him Who called
you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
Romans
8:17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if
so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
