Who You Are In Christ

1 Corinthians 1:2 (NLT) I am writing to God's church in Corinth, to you who have been called by God to be his own holy people. He made you holy by means of Christ Jesus, just as he did for all people everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours.

Ephesians 4:24 (NLT) Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Father, I thank You that I am sanctified—made holy by Christ Jesus. I am called to be Your holy person, set apart for Your purposes. I am a saint, not because of my perfection, but because of Christ's work in me. Today I put on my new nature, created to be like You—truly righteous and holy.

2 Corinthians 5:21 (NLT) For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.

1 Corinthians 1:30 (NLT) God has united you with Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made him to be wisdom itself. Christ made us right with God; he made us pure and holy, and he freed us from sin.

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Jesus, You who never sinned became sin for me so that I could be made right with God. I am not trying to earn righteousness—I AM righteous because I am in You. You are my wisdom, my righteousness, my holiness, and my freedom. I stand before God clothed in Your perfection, fully accepted and approved.

2 Corinthians 5:17 (NLT) This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!

DECLARATION/PRAYER: I am a brand new person in Christ! My old life is gone—dead and buried with Jesus. Everything is fresh and new. I am not who I used to be. The past does not define me. My failures do not determine my future. God is doing a new thing in me right now, and I embrace the new life He's given me.

Romans 8:14 (NLT) For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.

Galatians 3:26 (NLT) For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

Galatians 4:4-5 (NLT) But when the right time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, subject to the law. God sent him to buy freedom for us who were slaves to the law, so that he could adopt us as his very own children.

2 Peter 1:4 (NLT) And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world's corruption caused by human desires.

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Abba Father, I am Your child! Because I have faith in Christ Jesus, I belong to Your family. You sent Your Son to buy my freedom and adopt me as Your very own. I am not an orphan, not a slave, not an outsider. I am Your beloved son/daughter. I share in Your divine nature. I am home, and I am loved.

Romans 8:17 (NLT) And since we are his children, we are his heirs. In fact, together with Christ we are heirs of God's glory. But if we are to share his glory, we must also share his suffering.

Galatians 3:29 (NLT) And now that you belong to Christ, you are the true children of Abraham. You are his heirs, and God's promise to Abraham belongs to you.

Galatians 4:7 (NLT) Now you are no longer a slave but God's own child. And since you are his child, God has made you his heir.

1 Peter 1:3-4 (NLT) All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ from the dead. Now we live with great expectation, and we have a priceless inheritance—an inheritance that is kept in heaven for you, pure and undefiled, beyond the reach of change and decay.

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Father, because I am Your child, I am also Your heir. Everything that belongs to Christ now belongs to me. I have an inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade—kept in heaven for me. I am not working to earn Your favor; I am already an heir. I receive Your promises with great expectation.

1 Corinthians 12:13 (NLT) Some of us are Jews, some are Gentiles, some are slaves, and some are free. But we have all been baptized into one body by one Spirit, and we all share the same Spirit.

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Lord Jesus, I am a member of Your body, the Church. I have been baptized into one body by Your Spirit. I am not alone—I am connected to every other believer. I belong. I have a purpose in Your body. I am needed, valued, and united with all who call on Your name.

John 10:27 (NLT) My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.

John 17:3 (NLT) And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.

Galatians 4:9 (NLT) So now that you know God (or should I say, now that God knows you), why do you want to go back again and become slaves once more to the weak and useless spiritual principles of this world?

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Jesus, I am Your sheep. I hear Your voice, and You know me personally and intimately. To know You is eternal life—and even more amazing, You know me! The Creator of the universe knows my name, my heart, my fears, my dreams. I am fully known and fully loved by You.

John 5:24 (NLT) I tell you the truth, those who listen to my message and believe in God who sent me have eternal life. They will never be condemned for their sins, but they have already passed from death into life.

Romans 6:4 (NLT) For we died and were buried with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives.

Romans 6:11 (NLT) So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 2:5 (NLT) Even though we were dead because of our sins, he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God's grace that you have been saved!)

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Father, I have eternal life! I will never be condemned for my sins because I have already passed from death into life. I am dead to sin and alive to You through Christ Jesus. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead lives in me and gives me new life. I am fully alive in You!

Colossians 2:9-10 (NLT) For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority.

2 Peter 1:3-4 (NLT) By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world's corruption caused by human desires.

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Jesus, I am complete in You! I don't need anything else to make me whole. Your divine power has given me everything I need for living a godly life. I lack nothing. I am not waiting to be complete someday—I am complete right now through my union with You.

Ephesians 2:6 (NLT) For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus.

Ephesians 2:19 (NLT) So now you Gentiles are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God's holy people. You are members of God's family.

Philippians 3:20 (NLT) But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior.

DECLARATION/PRAYER: Father, my citizenship is in heaven! I am seated with Christ in the heavenly realms right now. I am not a stranger or foreigner—I am a citizen of Your kingdom and a member of Your family. This earth is not my home. I live with an eternal perspective, eagerly waiting for Jesus to return.
