Who Am I?

“Who do you say that I am?”

When this question was asked of Peter he received revelation that Jesus was the Christ. Upon this revelation I built the foundations of the church, a church with power, authority and revelation. Today I am asking the same of you:

“Who do you say that I am?”

I am looking for those who chose me fully, who search out every aspect of my character, that love me as father, know me as saviour, honour me as righteous judge, yield to me as King of Kings; those who know they can approach my throne of grace with confidence yet also know that I dwell in unapproachable light.

Only those who embrace my fullness can be firmly rooted. They are the ones I can build upon, the ones who will form the walls, the towers, the turrets of my house. They will be able to bear the weight of my glory, stepping into greater levels of authority and releasing my power on the earth.

Activation: With the Holy Spirit assess how you view God. Are there aspects of his nature you dwell on less than others? Ask him where your blind spots are to his nature. Commit to knowing these aspects better, find Bible verses or passages revealing this side of his nature. Pray through this aspect of his nature asking him to strengthen your understanding in this area. Spend time over the coming weeks praising him for this aspect of his character and growing in love for this.

Matthew 16:18-19 (NIV)

And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

John 1:16 (ESV)

And from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.

Colossians 1:19-20 (ESV)

For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.
