Identifying Your Identity!
Proverbs 4:23
Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life.
The greatest wealth is knowing who you really are.
Whoever you can be, you must be. Every person came with an Identity from God to be discovered in the process of living life.
Nothing is more critical to successful living than knowing who we are.
That which is within the heart of a person is by far the largest and most important part of their existence.
Proverbs 19:21: Many plans are in a man’s mind, but it is the Lord’s purpose for him that will prevail.
Proverbs 20:5: The purposes of a man’s heart are deep waters, but a man of understanding draws them out.
Our “Identity” must come out of our deep inner self, from the reservoir of God’s truth, wisdom and knowledge.
Our “Identity” should never come from our circumstance, adversity, culture, status, position, past, sins or failures.
Our “Identity” is to be built over the course of our lifetime as we respond to the issues of our life.
Proverbs 4:21, 23: Keep my words in the center of your heart. Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the issues of life.
“Issues” means “to go forth, limits, boundaries.”
Your Identity will determine the boundaries, the limits, of your life.
What is your life full of? When life squeezes you, what comes out?
Do you know the person God designed you to be? Or, have you become the person the world around you has determined you to be?
