Televangelist HB Morgan Digital Library Publications Christianity Today ✝️ Devotional Companion BUILD YOUR LIFE ON YOUR IDENTITY IN CHRIST Scripture Reading: Galatians 1:15–16 (AMPC) "But when He, Who had chosen and set me apart even before I was born and had called me by His grace (His undeserved favor and blessing), saw fit and was pleased to reveal His Son within me so that I might proclaim Him among the Gentiles as the glad tidings (Gospel), immediately I did not confer with flesh and blood." A life of purpose does not happen by accident—it is built intentionally through wisdom. The Scriptures teach that a wise woman builds her house, reminding us that wisdom is essential for establishing anything of lasting value. In the same way, building and planning your life requires divine wisdom and deliberate action. The foundation of every meaningful life plan is the discovery of your identity in Christ. Before deciding where you are going, you must first understand who you are. Without this revelation, your goals may be shaped by the opinions of people, the pressures of society, or the pursuit of temporary achievements rather than God's eternal purpose. The Apostle Paul understood this truth. He recognized that God had chosen and called him even before his birth. Once the Lord revealed Christ to him, Paul's life took on a new direction. He no longer allowed human opinions to determine his course but aligned his plans with God's calling upon his life. The same principle applies to every believer today. When you discover your identity in Christ, your values, priorities, decisions, and future plans begin to reflect God's purpose for your life. Planning becomes clearer because it is no longer driven by uncertainty but by divine revelation. Do not build your future on assumptions or comparisons. Build it upon the truth of who God says you are. As you grow in your knowledge of Christ, He will guide your steps and establish your plans according to His perfect will. Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for choosing me and revealing my identity in Christ. Help me to grow in the knowledge of who I am in You, so that every plan and decision I make will align with Your divine purpose. Grant me wisdom to build my life on Your Word and to faithfully fulfill the calling You have prepared for me. In Jesus' name, Amen.
