*Who You Are in Christ*
> The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one. John 17:22
You are born of God. This is not a concept—it is your origin. You are not a product of your past, your environment, or your struggles. You carry a life that came from Him. So stop measuring yourself by what surrounds you. The world does not define you—you overcome it, because His life is in you.
You live by faith—and that is your victory. You are not trying to reach God; you already belong to Him. So when pressure comes, don’t shrink back. Stand. You are not fighting for approval—you already have it. Let your decisions, your words, and your responses come from that place of acceptance.
You are meant to walk in assurance. Stop living as if you are uncertain about where you stand with God. You know you have eternal life. So reject fear, silence doubt, and refuse to be shaken by circumstances. When everything around you feels unstable, remind yourself: I belong to Him, and that settles it.
You are led by the Spirit. That means you are no longer under the control of old habits, impulses, or desires. When something rises in you that does not align with Christ, you don’t negotiate with it—you put it to death. You have the power to walk away, to say no, to choose differently. Holiness is not pressure—it is your nature expressing itself.
You carry His glory. You are not empty, and you are not alone. The presence of God is within you right now. So walk like it. Speak like it. Treat others like it. And stay in unity—because this life was never meant to be lived in isolation. What is in you is meant to flow through you.
This is who you are. So stop striving to become something you already are. Live it. Walk in it. Manifest Him.
Your brother in Christ,
Apostle Ashok Martin
