February 11th 2026 – Who God Says You Are

2 Replies

Scripture Reference:

“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.” (1 Peter 2:9)

Reflection:

In a world that often defines us by our achievements, failures, or even our past mistakes, it’s easy to lose sight of our true identity. But God invites us to look deeper, to see ourselves through His eyes.

You are not just a product of your circumstances. You are chosen. This means that before the foundation of the world, God set His affection on you. You are part of a royal lineage, a priesthood that serves not just to bring offerings, but to reflect His glory to the world.

Think about what it means to be God’s special possession. You are treasured, valued, and loved beyond measure. Your worth is not dictated by the fleeting opinions of others but by the eternal truth of who God says you are.

When moments of doubt creep in, remember that God has called you out of darkness. Your past does not define your future. Instead, He has brought you into His wonderful light—a light that reveals your true identity as a beloved child of God.

Reflection Questions:

  1. What messages from the world have you believed about yourself that contradict God’s truth?
  2. How can you remind yourself daily of who God says you are?
  3. In what ways can you declare His praises, reflecting the identity He has given you?

As you meditate on this devotion, let it transform your understanding of who you are. Embrace your identity in Christ, and let it guide your thoughts, actions, and relationships. You are deeply loved, uniquely created, and endlessly valuable.

“Your identity is not shaped by the shadows of your past, but by the light of God’s love that calls you His own.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for choosing me and for declaring my worth through Your unconditional love. I am grateful that I am not defined by my mistakes or the world’s opinions, but by the identity You have given me as Your beloved child. Help me to see myself through Your eyes, embracing the truth that I am a royal priesthood and a treasured possession.

Guide me in moments of doubt and insecurity, reminding me to reject the lies that seek to misdefine my worth. Fill my heart with confidence in Your promises, and let Your light shine brightly in my life. May I reflect Your love and grace to those around me, sharing the hope of who You say I am.

Lord, empower me to declare Your praises boldly, living each day in a way that honors You. Help me to encourage others to see their own identities in Christ, fostering a community that celebrates Your truth. Thank You for the gift of belonging to You. May I continually seek to understand and embrace the fullness of my identity in You. Amen.

Interested in a presonal relationship with Jesus?:

Have you ever felt a longing for purpose and belonging? A desire to break free from the weight of past mistakes and embrace a brighter future? The good news is that Jesus is waiting to welcome you with open arms.

He sees you not for what you’ve done, but for who you are—a beloved child of God. When you accept Him into your heart, you step into a new identity filled with hope, love, and grace.

December 21st 2025 – Who You Are in Christ

Leave a reply

Scripture Reading:

“Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to God’s elect, strangers in the world, scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia, who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and sprinkling by his blood: Grace and peace be yours in abundance.” (1 Peter 1:1-7)

Reflection:

In the midst of trials and uncertainties, it’s essential to remember who we are in Christ. Peter addresses believers as “God’s elect,” reminding us that we are chosen by God, not due to our merit but because of His grace. This identity is foundational to our faith and understanding of our place in the world.

Being “born again to a living hope” through the resurrection of Jesus is a profound truth. It signifies that our past does not define us; instead, we are renewed and restored. This living hope is not a mere wish but a confident expectation that God is working all things for our good (Romans 8:28).

Trust in His Promises:

When life feels overwhelming, trust in God’s promises. The trials we face are temporary and serve a purpose. Peter reminds us that these challenges refine our faith, much like gold is refined by fire. Each struggle is an opportunity to lean into God, to deepen our trust, and to find strength in Him.

Finding Strength in Him:

In moments of weakness, remember that God’s strength is made perfect. He calls us to cast our burdens upon Him (1 Peter 5:7). Instead of striving in our own power, let us embrace dependence on His grace. In our weakness, His love and support become our greatest strengths.

Sharing His Love:

As recipients of God’s love, we are called to share it with others. Let your life be a reflection of His grace and peace. In a world that often feels divided and chaotic, be the hands and feet of Jesus, extending love, kindness, and support to those around you.

Remember, you are deeply loved, secure, and chosen by God. Embrace your identity in Christ and let it transform your life and the lives of those around you. You are not alone; His presence is with you, always guiding and sustaining you.

“In Christ, I am chosen and beloved, finding strength in every trial as I reflect His hope and love to the world around me.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the incredible gift of being chosen and loved by You. I am grateful for the hope I have through the resurrection of Jesus, which transforms my life and fills me with courage. In moments of uncertainty and struggle, help me to remember my true identity as Your beloved child.

Strengthen my faith when I feel weak, and teach me to lean on Your promises. May I find comfort in knowing that each trial I face is an opportunity for growth and deeper trust in You.

Guide me to reflect Your love in my actions and words, so that I may be a light to those around me. Help me to share Your grace and peace with a world that desperately needs it. Let Your love flow through me, bringing hope and healing to others. Thank You for Your unwavering presence in my life. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
