Hello
"For God wanted them to know that the riches and glory of Christ are for you Gentiles, too. And this is the secret: Christ lives in you. This gives you assurance of sharing his glory." -Colossians 1:27
Your Identity in Christ Jesus
One of the most practical ways we can renew our minds (Romans 12:2) is by regularly speaking and agreeing with God’s Word. Use this resource to renew your mind around who you are in Christ. Speak it out loud if you can while thanking the Lord and agreeing with Him about who He says you are. While not completely comprehensive, this list is a great place to start – God has a lot to say about how He sees us!
