Who I Am in Christ – Confessions
My Position in Christ
1. I am of the seed of Abraham by adoption, therefore I am part of God’s covenant with Abraham and therefore I receive Abraham’s blessing. Gen 12:3, Gal 3:8,9,29.
2. I am a “son” of God (son denotes male or female and is the position of first born son therefore an heir to the father’s estate – not a servant as a servant has no right to the inheritance but a son does. Rom 8:14-16, Col 1:12, Col 3:12, Eph 1:14.
3. Because I am a “son” I am an heir of the Father, I am a joint-heir with the Son. Whatever He has is at our disposal (and our Father is not poor, He holds the wealth of the universe in the palm of His hand). There is no need He cannot meet if we are not too proud to receive it.
