07.14.26 - Partners in Prayer I - I'm with Him

Our identity is in Christ is multi-faceted, centered on God’s love for each of us and on the lengths to which He has gone to restore our relationship. That restored relationship is made possible by the coming of Jesus to reveal His Kingdom and His core identity as King of the Universe. The life He brings through His own life, death, burial, and climactic resurrection constitutes God’s Good News for the human race. We are recipients and benefactors of God’s Good NEWS, and are made the primary messengers of that NEWS to the world around us as we NARRATE the story, EXPRESS the story’s primary point, relay WHAT we should do in response to it, and convey the SIGNIFICANCE of the SALVATION given us when we respond to God’s invitation. We are not merely on a quest for self-improvement or in an evangelism program. Our pursuit of our identity as followers AND sharers of Christ must start in our prayers calling on God to work in and through us.
