I've recently struggled with my identity with Christ. I thought of myself as a "leader for my generation", "Christian KZreadr", and even "evangelist". But God told me at the end of the day the most important identity of mine is a child of God. It's such a relief to know Jesus doesn't want us to follow religion, but to follow him and walk in his love and strength.

God wants to use you. But just know that Jesus fasted for forty days and waited until the right time to begin his ministry. Continue to grow and mature in the Lord and seek Him first above all else. He will lead you in Jesus’ Mighty Name I pray that you prosper and that the enemy has no hold over you. 2nd Tim. 1:7

@@Andrewdye23Thank you for saying this. Because I feel exactly how the person who made the comment described. I use to feel so pressured after finding my purpose of evangelizing but the word said study to show thyself approve

5:40-6:55. The gospel, straight up and simple. I really needed to hear it. Thank you so much, and praise God for His love and mercies. New every morning.

lately ive really been struggling with putting my identity in my feelings for a particular girl. recently god has been telling me that i just need to give everything to him and let him take control. that said, i don't really know how to give him my feelings. I end up just shutting them out which he has made clear to me isn't right. ive been single my whole life because of either fear or glaring issues that would make pursuing a relationship unwise. ive noticed that ive built large portions of my identity on the sand, not the rock of Jesus Christ (like the story from Matthew 7). having built my identity on sand, it shifts around too much, whether it be from my academics or my weight training or comparison to others that are "more successful" than me. I really need to spend more time in the word and in prayer, getting to know God and what he has in store for me.

I can’t describe to you how much I can relate to this. Thank you brother for sharing.

I'm 16, in high school and I find myself struggling with having my identity in Christ. Often at school, I keep finding myself placing my identity in sports. I used to play football but I felt the Holy Spirit convicted me about placing my identity in football. Now I only do track since I still want to stay active but even with that sport, I find myself feeling like I have to keep up a persona of being a “track star” which has made my self-esteem go up and down at times depending on how I perform. Anyhow, please pray for me🙏

This is definitely something ive been struglging with, especially being exposed to people who just have that glow of christ like behaviour. Its been diffuclt as a 20 year old, my generation seems to be finding themselves in the strnagest of things, and i too found myself just saying "well im an artist i draw" and thinking that was better than how most people identified, but its still not christ, so i need to learn how to walk like that in my own time

Psalms 29:4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

I've been reflecting Christ more and more lately. Been drawing closer to Him since I've been seeking Him more and more.

This has to be one of my favorite videos from you. Sometimes we get so caught up in titles we forget that we are called to Jesus first before called to anything else. Thank you for allowing God to use you as a vessel.

4:23 got me for some reason. In one drop of water, there are over 1.5 sextillion molecules of water. Yet not one of them is out of place in God’s eyes. How amazing it is to find our character is this God!

"If you died watching this video, you'd be with Him." My spirit literally lifted when I absorbed that bro.

It’s not what I think, what is important to me is that others see, feel and know that I am a disciple so that I may give God all the glory. I know that I don’t belong to myself. The presence of the Holy Spirit is in me, I’m confident of this that other’s recognize. We fall short all day every day, and we must pray and jump back up and in. Hallelujah! Thank You Abba, I am Yours.🙏🏾

Love the part you mentioned we continue to reflect and grow with Christ. I will continue to reflect him daily

Lord knows, I’ve been ‘spotty’ at best, when it comes to reflecting the image of God. ‘‘Tis why I need Him and His Word daily. Thank you for the encouragement ✝️☝🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻

I guess we all can agree in the fact that having the answer for a question like: Who am I? It's usually difficult. I'm 23 years old and I'm trying to know... There are some things I know about myself but there are some others I don't know and God is the only answer. Thanks for making this!

Thank you Alex because I sometimes struggle with my progress as in being transformed from the old me vs the new man... It sometimes can get to me but yet you reminded me that yes I do have the promise of being renewed and transformed in to the character He has planned for me as a man and a man of God. May Yeshua bless you.

Really appreciate the video Alex - its reminded me that I have blessed by God with the character I have with my faith and also be more mindful of being humble in my faith. Question - what are your views on evolution and the creation story? As a Christian how should I reconcile the two?

What's your take on pagen holidays, Christmas, Halloween, Easter traditions, as the bible doesn't state when His birthday is, or how to celebrate. Also the traditions we have are apart of pagen traditions and Halloween and Easter bunny, then would we be participating in evil and idolizing?

Sweet!! Let’s hear it, it’s the best thing to boast about the identity being rooted in TRUTH!!

Hey friend, reflecting God means to reflect the attributes of God: His kindness, love, mercy, etc. Jesus embodied them perfectly and so through following Jesus, we grow in the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5), which are essentially the attributes of God. “Reflecting” is just another word for like to imitate or mimic. Hopefully that helps 🙏

Does it really mean understanding Christ is a Black man ? It’s a rhetorical question btw “ Hair Like Wool, Feet unto fine brass as if they burnt in a furnace” once we know that, Then we can put in context what God Is saying in totality in Gens1:26 He was speaking literally in our own image, God Is Black, Finding identity in Christ you first have to identify who Christ Was, What Was His Mission and what Christ looked like he wasn’t clear olive or white, he was a black man from the tribe of Judah sent to save the Israelites. Made man from the dirt of the ground Dirt Is Brown or darker . He was speaking literally the original man was black.

Good on you! But let me tell you this. We all are birthed from the branch of Adam. As the nations were scattered across the world. The tribes living in colder environments, their melanin evolved and appeared white. The tribes living in hotter climates, overtime their bodies evolved, adapted, and their melanin appeared black. We are all brothers and sisters, under the same family tree. God doesn't care if someone is black or white. Race is basically a social construct if you look at it from a scientific standpoint. Saying you are that race, we are that race. Causes division more than anything. Love your neighbour as yourself. We're all in this together, and we have been made victorious through Christ Jesus who paid our debts.

@@dylanjdante IF YOU LOSE MELANIN PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW THATS EVOLVING? Your correct we do all come from Adam but The BIBLE says when Rebecca and Isaac had Jacob and Esau there was two NATION ( TYPE OF PEOPLE) this is the accurate account of where white people come from not because their Melanin devolved from living in the mountains. I don’t believe in science I believe in GODS word. Hence my original statement Make man in our image/likeness Is Literal MAKE MAN BLACK

You are correct we all come from Adam But The Bible say the first count of white man was Rebecca and Isaac paternal twin Esau ( Genesis 25:24 ). White people didn’t come from being in the mountains. God decided to create two separate people. And if you read the word you’ll see that God is intentional in making it a point he’s Ok with separation it’s not about All Being One. God separates all throughout the Bible
