I am somebody, Romans 8 declares unto me that I am a child of God, I am an heir of God, I am a joint-heir with Christ Jesus. I am more than a conqueror through Christ Jesus who loves me. If God be for me, who can be against me?
The 91st Psalms declares unto me that as long as I dwell in the secret place of the Most High, which is the Word of God, I shall abide under the shadow, protection, and provisions of the Almighty God. It further bears witness in me that God is my refuge (my hiding place), my fortress (my strength), and my God (the one whom I worship). Because if this, I am not afraid of the snare of the fowler or the noisome pestilence, for a thousand shall fall at one side, and ten-thousand at my right hand but it shall not come nigh my dwelling. Only with mine eyes shall I behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because God is my refuge and my habitation, no evil shall befall me, neither shall any plague, sickness or disease come nigh my dwelling. God gives His angles charge over me to keep me in all my ways, those angles bear me up in their hands before I dash my foot against a stone. 1 Peter 2:9 establishes my identity - that is - I am a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people, I have been called out of darkness, and placed into God's marvelous light. Galatians 3 assures me that Christ redeemed me from the curse of the law and released me to the blessings of Abraham. It further assures me that if I belong to Christ (and you know that I do), then I am Abraham's seed and an heir according to the promises. Some of those promises are found in Deuteronomy 28 - I am blessed coming in and I am blessed going out. the fruit of my womb, which are my children they are blessed. I am the head and not the tail. I am aboove and not beneath. I am the lender and not the borrower. These blessings are steadily overtaking me daily. Oh, one more thing, the 91st Psalm assures me, ..."with long life will God satisfy me and show me how good it is to be one of the saved."
