YOU STAND IN A COVENANT OF VICTORY
Who Am I In Christ?
Read
this list aloud to yourself, repeatedly until it becomes a part of
you. Pray through the list occasionally asking God to cement these
truths in your heart.
The following statements
summarize your scriptural identity and position in Christ and form
the foundation for your freedom in Christ. Read these statements
aloud often. If you are presently involved in a spiritual conflict,
read these statements aloud at least once each day for a month.
God’s word is absolute,
pure truth (Psalm 119:140). It shall stand forever (Isaiah 40:8). I
receive it engrafted into my heart with meekness, because it has the
power to save my soul (James 1:21). God’s word grows mightily in my
heart and prevails (Acts 19:20) and by it I am quickened (Psalm
119:50). It is a lamp unto my feet (Psalm 119:105) and the entrance
of it giveth light (Psalm 119:130). The light shines into the
darkness and the darkness cannot resist it (John1:5). The word of
the Lord is very pure and thy servant loves it (Psalm 119:140).
Great peace have I, and nothing shall offend me (Psalm 119:165) and
I will let it dwell in me richly (Colossians 3:16a). This is Thy
covenant with me Oh Lord. Thy Spirit that is upon me, and Your words
which You have put in my mouth, shall never depart out of my mouth,
nor out of the mouth of my seed, nor out of the mouth of my seed’s
seed ( natural and spiritual) as You have said, from now on and
forever ( Isaiah 59:21).
I am not the great “I
AM”, but by the grace of God I am what I am (1 Corinthians
15:10). Without Him I can do nothing (John 15:5), BUT I AM COMPLETE
IN HIM WHO IS THE HEAD OVER ALL PRINCIPALITY AND POWER (Colossians
2:10).
Having been predestined,
I was chosen by God for adoption, according to the good pleasure of
His will (Ephesians1:5) and I am now born again (John 1:12,
3:7), made a new creature in Christ; old things have passed
away; behold all things are made new in me (2 Corinthians
5:17). I have received the Spirit of God into my life that I
might freely know by the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the
knowledge of Him the things given to me by God, that the eyes of my
understanding may be enlightened; that I may know the hope of His
calling, and what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance
placed in the saints, and the exceeding greatness of His power
toward us who believe
(1 Corinthians 2:12;
Ephesians 1:17-19).
I have been
justified, declared righteous, through faith in His blood in which I
trust (Romans 3:25, 26). My sins are forgiven and I am
redeemed from all the curse of the broken law by His blood, and His
cross, according to the riches of His grace (Ephesians 1:7;
Galatians 3:13). The handwriting that was against me has been
totally cancelled (Colossians 2:14). I am free from all
condemnation because I am in Christ (Romans 8:1). Satan, my accuser
has been cast down (Revelation 12:10). I am washed, I
am sanctified, I am justified in the name of Jesus and
by the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:11). He has washed me of
my sins in His blood (Revelation 1:5). Because I walk in the light
as He is in the light, the blood of Jesus Christ, God’s Son,
cleanses me from all sin (1 John 1:7). I am made nigh by the
blood of Christ (Ephesians 2:13). I have access to all the benefits
of His covenant which is sworn by the oath of His word and His blood
(Hebrews 6:17, 18). Even my conscience is purged by the blood
of Christ, (who offered Himself without spot to God by the eternal
Spirit) from all dead works to serve the living God (Hebrews 9:14).
Therefore, Satan has no place in me or legal hold over me. ALL HAS
BEEN settled by the blood of Jesus (Romans 8:33, 34). I OVERCOME THE
DEVIL THEREFORE, BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB AND BY THESE WORDS OF MY
TESTIMONY (Revelation 12:11).
Yes, I am an
adopted child of the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
totally accepted by God, in Christ (Ephesians 1:5, 6). I have
been qualified to partake in and enjoy my share in the
inheritance of all the saints of the light (Colossians 1:12), and I
am no longer a stranger to the covenants of promise and of
the vast commonwealth of Israel (Ephesians 2:12). As a child of
faith like Abraham, because I believe God’s word, I have access to
and partake in the same promises and blessings God gave to Abraham
(Galatians 3:9, 14, Genesis 12:2, 3). I am joined to the
Lord, and I am one Spirit with Him (1 Corinthians 6:17).
I have been
rescued from the dominion of darkness and have been
translated into the kingdom of God’s dear Son (Colossians 1:13). I
am born of God and Satan has no right to influence or touch
my life (1 John 5:18), and I give him no place (Ephesians 4:27) in
Jesus name!
Because I was
baptized into Jesus’ death, my old sinful nature was buried with
Him. I know this to be a fact according to God’s word and I continue
to reckon it so. Therefore, I am free from sin’s dominating power
over me and I choose to yield all the parts of my body to serve God,
to glorify God, as instruments of righteousness. I walk in newness
of life as one who has been united with Christ in His resurrection
(Romans 6:3-14.) I give my body as a living sacrifice that I may
know the perfect will of God (Romans12:2). My body is the
temple of the Holy Spirit and I will glorify God in my body and in
my spirit, which belong to Him (1 Corinthians 6:19,20). Since I died
with Christ, I no longer live for myself but for Christ (2
Corinthians 5:14,15). My old self-life has been crucified
with Christ, is dead, and my life is hidden with Christ in
God. Christ is alive in me and the life I now live in this
body, I live by the faith of Jesus Christ the Son of God, Who so
loved me that He sacrificed Himself for me (Colossians 3:3;
Galatians 2:20). Because I am Christ’s, I have crucified the flesh
with the affections and lusts (Galatians 5:24). Therefore I mortify
the flesh by the Spirit now (Romans 8:13). I put off the old man
(Ephesians 4:22), and reckon myself to be indeed dead unto sin and
alive to God (Romans 6:11). I seek those things, which are above
where Christ sits at the right hand of God (Colossians 3:1). Much
more being reconciled to God by His death, I am saved by His
life in me (Romans 5:10). The law of the Spirit of life in Christ
Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death (Romans
8:2). My body is for the Lord and the Lord is for my
body (1 Corinthians 6:13).
I am being kept
by the power of God through faith unto full salvation until the
return of Christ (1 Peter 1:5). I have been sealed into
Christ by the Holy Spirit as a pledge guaranteeing the fullness of
my inheritance (purchased by Jesus) to be unfolded in my life, until
Jesus returns to redeem me totally and finally form this body, unto
the praise of the fullness of His glory which shall be seen in me
(Ephesians 1:13,14). To Him who is able to keep me from falling and
to present me faultless before the presence of His glory with
exceeding joy, be glory and majesty, dominion and power now and
forever
(Jude 24, 25).
I have been given
access to God with boldness and confidence (Ephesians 3:12). Yea,
the Lord Jesus Christ my high priest tells me to hold fast to my
confession of faith, for He knows my weaknesses. He invites me,
draws me to come to Him with bold confidence to His throne to obtain
(to take hold of what has already been given) mercy and grace to
help in every time of need (Hebrews 4:16; Hebrews 10:23). His grace
is sufficient for me to enable me to overcome every weakness.
Therefore in my infirmities I will give glory to Him and count on
the power of the strength of His Spirit to rise up within me to make
me strong ( 2 Corinthians 12:9,10). It is God that girds me with His
strength and makes my way perfect. He makes my feet like hinds feet,
and setteth me upon my high places (Psalm 18:32,33). I stand on His
promise to help me and strengthen me and uphold me with His right
hand of righteousness (Isaiah 41:10). For it is God who works in me
to both will and do for His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13).
Faithful is He that called me, who will also do it (1 Thessalonians
5:24).
God is able to make all
manner of grace abound toward me, that I always, having all
sufficiency in all things, may abound unto every good work (2
Corinthians 9:8). I have been given exceeding great and
precious promises, and by these, I am made a partaker of the divine
nature (2 Peter 1:4). Since I am part of the true vine, I am
as a branch of that vine, a channel of the very life of Christ in me
– the sap of the Holy Spirit is in me to bear much fruit that
my Father in Heaven may be glorified (John 15:1,5,8). I have been
saved by His grace, I am born anew, and I am created
to do the works which He has prepared beforehand for me to do
(Ephesians 2:10).
I will be fully like
Christ when I see Him at His return for me (1 John 3:2). Meanwhile
in all things God works for good in my life, to conform me to
the image of His Son (Romans 8:28, 29) that His life may be more
fully formed and strengthened in the outworking of my life and I
will no longer be as a child, tossed to and fro (Ephesians 4:13,14).
I have been
quickened together with Christ and because all principalities and
powers are under His feet (since His resurrection, all authority and
power has been given to Him in the heavenly places and on the earth
– Matthew 28:18) and because I am part of His Body, all
principalities and powers are also under my feet, in my position in
Him
( Ephesians 2:1,6;
1:21-23). Greater is He that is in me that he that is in the world
(1 John 4:4). He has given me authority to tread on snakes
and scorpions and all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by
any means hurt me. Notwithstanding I rejoice not that the spirits
are subject unto me, but rather rejoice because my name is
written in Heaven (Luke 10:19,20). But through my God, I shall tread
down those that are risen against me (Psalm 44:5). I will cut them
off in the name of the Lord ( Psalm 118:12) and bind their kings and
nobles in fetters of iron, with the high praise of God in my mouth,
and the two edged sword of His Word in my hand. This honor have all
His saints to execute the judgment written against His enemies
(Psalm 149:6-9). Whatever I bind on earth is bound in the heavenlies,
and whatever I loose on earth is loosed in the heavenlies (Matthew
18:18). I walk in the Spirit and do not fulfill the lusts of the
flesh, and the fruit the Spirit bears in me is love, joy, peace,
long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and self
control (Galatians 5:22,23).
IN CHRIST I AM AN
OVERCOMER (Romans 8:37). I am the head and not the tail
(Deuteronomy 28:13). Christ is my shield, my glory and the
lifter of my head (Psalm 3:3), and my words shall conform to His,
because in my tongue is the power of life or death (Proverbs 18:21).
Thanks be to God who always causes me to triumph and makes manifest
the power of His knowledge by me in every place (2 Corinthians
2:14). In all these things, I am more than a conqueror
through Christ who loved me
(Romans 8:37).
I AM COMPLETE IN HIM WHO
IS THE HEAD OVER ALL PRINCIPALITY AND POWER (Colossians 2:10).
HALLELUJAH!
So say what God says you
are, and by the power of the Spirit be what you are in Christ.
