“Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.” 1 John 5:1
You can only discover who you truly are by divine revelation. When you really have a revelation of who you are in Christ, with an inward certainty of the Biblical fact that God is working in you, you will never be afraid.
Most Christians are not looking within to the Word of God to know who they are in Christ. According to the scriptures, we are sons of God now (See 1 John 3:2). 1 John 4:4(ISV) says, “Little children, you belong to God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.” Therefore, in Christ, you have overcome the world.
In 1 John 5:4, the Bible lets us know that everyone who is born of God has overcome the world and our faith is the victory that overcomes the world. Our faith in what God has revealed in His Word about who we are is what makes us overcomers. We will not overcome until we believe and act in line with our redemptive privileges.
Romans 1:17 says, “… The just shall live by faith.” How does faith come? Romans 10:17 says, “… faith
cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” Faith is an inward conviction of the certainty of the written Word. Therefore, faith is a product of revelation or accurate knowledge from the Word of God.
So, I encourage you to live your life based on what God has revealed in His Word concerning you, understanding all your rights and authority you now possess in Him today.
Confession.
In the Name of Jesus, I declare that I have overcome this world because I am born of God. I declare that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Therefore, greater is He that is in me than He that is in the world. Amen.
For further study, read:
Romans 8:11, 1 Corinthians 15:57, 1 John 2:13-14, 1 John 4:13.
