 (Second part) 

Memory verse (Matt 16:13-14) “ When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, Who do men say that I, the  Son of Man, am? So they said, Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets ”

You are not what men say you are. Don’t live by men’s opinions. No one knows who you are and it’s not their responsibility to know who you are. Sometimes people call you because of the things they see in your life positive or negative. You’re more than your weaknesses and you’re more than your strength.      And this world is funny; people want you to be what they think of you. This world does not want you to be what you were created to be. When Jesus told the people who he was, they hated him for that. He told people that he was the Son of God and they said, look he’s blaspheming. The world crucified Jesus for telling them who he was. Even today, Satan does not want you to know who you are and even when you do, he tells you not to speak it out because people don’t want to hear it. That’s why whenever you boldly confess who you are in Christ people say you are proud. People feel threatened by people who know who they are in CHRIST.

My brother/sister when you ask the world to tell you who they think you are, they will tell you all kinds of things and you don’t stone them for that, but when you tell them who you are they pick up stones. So, understand that becoming what God created you to be is warfare. Stand and boldly confess who are. As long as you fear to declare who you are, you will never be where you are supposed to be in life. John said am not what people say am, am what the word says, it’ s written of me in Isaiah (Is40: 1-11). I’m a voice crying in the wilderness. You are what God says you are and you’ve got to tell the world what God says you are. Never mind what Satan and the world would think about you, or say about you, even what they will do when you tell them who you are. Jesus turned to his disciples and asked them who they thought he was. Peter said to him, you are the Christ, the Son of the living God (Matt16: 13-16). Don’t fear when people call you what God is calling you. God said of Jesus, this is my beloved Son. Only your maker knows who you are. You’ve got to consult him and his word to discover who you are.
