Beloved Creation
Sarahi GonzalezShare
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious grace, which he has freely given us in the One he loves. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace that he lavished on us. With all wisdom and understanding, he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.
Ephesians 1:3-10 NIV
You are a new creation in Christ. God thought of you before the creation of the world. He knitted you together in your mother’s womb. He called you His precious child since the beginning. You were never a mistake but made with intentionality and care. Your identity is a beloved child of God and He is your loving Father.
Although you have been accepted into the royal family of God, it may still be difficult to receive this truth in your heart. If you have experienced past hurt, mental illness, or relational trauma, the lens in which you view the kingdom of God may be foggy. It may be difficult to see yourself rightly and accept your identity in Christ. You may struggle to receive the fullness of His love or struggle with unworthiness. You may feel like you have never been chosen and carry an orphan spirit. It may be difficult for you to trust God and others because of your past hurt. These past wounds have caused you to put up a wall of self-protection that distorts your view of people and more importantly God. You struggle to accept His character and don’t understand the true nature of the Father. You live in shame, guilt, condemnation and haven’t fully received the revelation of the cross. If you identify with any of these beliefs, there is hope for you today friend.
God is a merciful and gracious God. I pray that He would enlighten the truth of the gospel to you and reveal His nature as a loving Father who cares deeply for you. God wants to replace that broken mirror with a clean view of yourself. When you see God rightly, you see yourself in all of your glory as a beloved child of God. You have been adopted and fully accepted into the royal family of God without earning anything! You have received an inheritance that is great and never-ending. The storehouses of heaven are vast and abundant, waiting for you to partake.
You have the fullness of God living inside of you through the Holy Spirit. You have been marked and sealed by the Holy Spirit who is your guarantee to enter the kingdom of light. God has called you by name. He speaks over you that you are precious, holy, blameless, beautiful, and treasured. He has brought access to full healing, restoration, peace, joy, and love. God is not withholding anything from you. He is a good Father who delights in giving you the desires of your heart. His word will not return void so you can trust in the promises He has spoken over you.
You are a new creation that can live in freedom through the truth of the gospel! The old is gone, and the new is here! You have been set free from all it. There is no condemnation in Christ Jesus. You don’t have to live in your old mindsets and believe the lies of the enemy. Jesus died on the cross, rose from the dead, gave you resurrection power through the Holy Spirit, ascended to the throne of God as our High Priest and is coming back to bring us home to heaven. Although there may be trouble in this life, take heart! Jesus has already overcome the world. You don’t have to live in fear, sin, or limitations. God is abounding in grace and patient with you. The Holy Spirit is with you every day to help you overcome whatever obstacle may arise. Hold fast to the freedom that has been freely given to you by grace through faith in Jesus.
