Who Are We

Who Are We

Matthew 16:13-17
13 "When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven."

Note
True revelation of who we are, can only be validated by God. There are those around us who have suggested narrative about us, because we remind them of someone else from previous experience or relationship. No matter how much we say "what people say don't matter," everyone considers what is said about them (fact).

It is imperative that we as Kingdom Citizens keep our identity in tact and our motives pure. We are not just common people in the earth, we are Supernaturally Endowed of God and we bare the image of our Sovereign (God), we are Ambassadors.

Jesus understood and knew His Life Objective, regardless of what others might think, but He certainly wanted the disciples (church) to have clarity of His Identity. ( Luke 10:19, "For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.")

  • Who are we/you?
  • What is our/your God Life Objective (purpose)?
  • Who do people say we/you are?
  • Who do the people we/you serve with say you are?

The way we live causes others to construct their opinions and views about us, but Our Consistency Of Godly Living, Causes "Divine Revelation" to keep the narrative straight regarding our true identity, as it was with Peter.

Matthew 16:17
"And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven."

Our Prayer
Father, we are in this world, but not of this world; help us to always have a clear perspective of identity and not become misplaced by popular opinion, that You might be Glorified in our lives, in Jesus Name, Amen.
