Two letters in a month?
Well… the LORD told me a few days ago that He had prepared something for me to write, and when I started to “dig in” to find out what it was … He started to pour out His Heart about our identity. Enjoy!
I’d been thinking about what it means to be God’s children.
When we carry His Spirit we carry Him, and He claims us as His own. (Romans 8:14: For all who are being led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.) We are part of His family. He is our Father, so we carry his name, the unspeakable name of God, YHVH.
Our new name, our new identity, comes to us at His invitation. Invited, adopted, into His family, we are now His kids. Our real character is His. He gives it to us every moment of every day. It’s our new DNA. The way we carry Him, are led by Him, in humility and grace, with honor and dignity, is a demonstration of His Spirit moving within us.
The children of Babylon wanted to reach heaven. Lucifer wanted God to make him God. Presumptive. Failures. But we are invited. It would be presumptuous of us not to accept His invitation into His family. It would be a massive failure to reject His DNA.
YHVH is the ever present one, Ayeh Asher Ayeh, I Am That I Am. (Exodus 3:14) Our Present. Our DNA: an authentic, moment-by-moment response to our Father’s Eternally Present Love, moving in His Wind, in His Spirit, as He leads, filled to overflowing with His Truth Love, portals of Heaven coming to Earth. (not reactive to our programming or former DNA)
HE IS always what HE IS. So are we intended to be. Ourselves. Himself. Now. Present. Always. Carrying His Name, His Character.
There was a time, when I was a younger believer, when this obsessed me. Then life in the LORD took over. Becoming like Him seemed more and more daunting. My former philosophical hubris became a fantasy. Until July 4th this year. Freedom Day. The Lord brought it back to mind. “Remember that pastor who called everybody Yeshua? He was trying to communicate something important.” Then, a few weeks later … “You’re not your parents’ child. You’re my child. I lent you to them.” Then yesterday, “Watch this video.” It was a video of Dr. Francis Myles, bringing people into their new DNA in Christ.
I can choose to remain a child of my parents’ lineage, and carry all the weight and the blessings of all the past generations, or I can relinquish everything about myself to Christ and start over within Him, with His DNA. (John 1:12: But as many as receive Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name, who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of a man, but of God.”) I laid being Jewish on the altar. I heard Yeshua say, “Now your DNA is mine. Trust Me. I am Jewish (smile.) I will redirect you.” I do not carry my parents’ DNA any longer. I carry my Father in heaven‘s DNA. He is the one, as my true Father, who determines what I will keep and what I won’t, what is beneficial for his Kingdom and what is not. No weapon formed against me can prosper. I am His.
Dear LORD, thank YOU for being so incredibly kind and generous to us! Thank YOU for giving us so much of Your Heart, Mind, Soul and Spirit. We cannot comprehend what we have been given, but we can live within it. Amen.
I pray you all enjoy this video. Shalom!
