Robin led worship, Stan moderated and Paulin preached the message.

Opened up the mic for many people to share what they are thankful for in what Jesus is doing for them:
Anita shared that a kidney donor came forth but the blood reacted so please keep praying for a miracle for her.

Jesus comes to us in our darkest hour, there is no other.
People praying.
Robin: God uproots us from those things that we think have been dealt with and he works us through to come out better.

The NAME of JESUS is above all hopeless situations in our life.

Brother Fortan and his wife will be remarried next Sat 11:00am all are invited at Impact (Family of Faith), lunch is pot luck, bring a hot dish and fresh fruit.

Paulin brought the word: Who we really are, what is our identity in Christ?
Romans 5:8 — But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.(NIV)
John 8:31-32 — To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”(NIV)
We need to see ourselves as God sees us!
EG: if you see yourself as a failure, you’ll not be able to exercise your boldness and authority in Christ. If you see God as Angry and ready to smack you every time you make a mistake you’ll not be able to appreciate his grace and Love. We need to See God correctly.
Many of us feel like we are failure, guilt ridden but this is not the way it should be. Wrong belief strips us of faith, strength, joy and will make us helpless, hopeless, faithless, strength-less BUT a child of God is suppose to be full of faith joy and all the fruits of the spirit.

If you are filled with negative perceptions and thoughts it will impact your lift negatively, living miserably and in bondage. BUT  if the Son has set you free we can live free. Demonic spirits love to play with our own thoughts and affect our feelings directly.

Philippians 4:8 — Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things.(NIV)

Romans 12:2 — Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will.(NIV)

Knowing who we are in Christ is VITAL to our spiritual growth, healing and deliverance.

Anti-self and negative thoughts are now known to be the result of many physical ailments people experience. WE NEED TO RENEW OUR MINDS TO THE WORD!

So who are we then?

We need to base our identity on what God thinks about us.
The blood of Christ has made us worthy to be his children and loved by the Father.

John 17:23 — I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.(NIV) God loves us with the same love that he had towards Jesus.
Ephesians 3:17-19 — so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge–that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.(NIV)

We were purchased by a HUGE High price that Christ paid for each of us. Rom 6:33 He did this only because of His deep love for us.

We are justified (rendered and considered innocent, free, just and righteous!!!) and declared innocent!!!!!
Jusified: just as if you had never sinned!
THIS entitles us to a clear conscience!!! Yepeee, yahooooooooooo!!!!!!
WE are now ENTITLED (it is our right!!) to a clear, clean and undefiled conscience since our sins have been put away!!!!!!!!

Hebrews 9:14 — How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!(NIV)

2 Corinthians 5:21 — God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.(NIV)

NOW a position of authority now that we are believers:
Ephesians 2:6 — And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,(NIV)

Now signs and wonders and miracles will now follow you because: Luke 10 and Mark 16:15-18 (these signs will follow those who believe, not only pastors or evangelists BUT Believers!!!!).

Mark 16:15-17 — He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues;(NIV)

Christ has setup the kingdom within us now so NOW IT’S TIME FOR US TO BEGIN REIGHNING WITH CHRIST.
