Rhapsody of Realities 14 November 2024: Acknowledge Your True Identity
Scripture: John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free
One of the fundamental requirements for the manifestation of truth in anyone’s life is the knowledge of that truth. Hosea 4:6 says, “My people are destroyedfor lack of knowledge….” Ignorance leads to destruction because without understanding, people walk in darkness and fail to realize their true potential.
Also, in Psalm 82:6, the Lord said, “I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.”This verse reminds us of our divine identity and potential. However, many don’t understand and live in the reality of this truth. We see the result of this ignorance in the latter part of that verse: “But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes” (Psalm 82:7).
We’re divine beings; we’re “gods” because God gave birth to us: “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sonsof God, even to them that believe on his name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God” (John 1:12-13). James 1:18 says, “Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.”
This is the profound reality of our spiritual identity: we’re as divine as He is divine because we have the same life with Him. Every so often, declare, “I know who I am!” Acknowle dge your true identity. Knowing who you are in Christ empowers you and causes you to live triumphantly every day.

Consider how the Lord Jesus responded to the gruelling interrogation before Pilate. When questioned and accused, Jesus remained silent until Pilate asserted his supposed authority saying, “I can free you or have you crucified.”Jesus then spoke up, summarizing His response with the acknowledgement of His true identity. He said, “You have no power over me at all” (John 19:11). Jesus’ initial silence and subsequent declaration demonstrated His unwavering understanding of who He was. Just as the Lord Jesus knew His purpose and identity, you too must recognize and embrace your divine identity. This knowledge equips you to live boldly and purposefully, regardless of external pressures or challenges.
PRAYER: Dear Father, I know and understand my true identity in Christ. I’m the righteousness of God in Christ , imbued with eternal life, the organic and existential attributes of deity. I’m victorious and vibrant, strong and excellent. I walk in the light of this truth every day, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

By means of these He has bestowed on us His precious and exceedingly great promises, so that through them you may escape [by flight] from the moral decay (rottenness and corruption) that is in the world because of covetousness (lust and greed), and become sharers (partakers) of the divine nature.
2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!
1 Peter 2:9 AMPC
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.
