JESUS IS NOT ASHAMED TO IDENTIFY WITH YOU

“For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren.” Hebrew 2:11 (KJV)

 Beloved, if you are born again, you have become one with Christ. God sees you the same way he sees Christ. No difference! 

 John 17:23 says, “I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.” (KJV). The same quality of love God has for Christ is what He has for you. No difference! This is because you have taken on that name. 

 When you are facing challenges and obstacles, you stand and rebuke the devil in the name of Jesus. The moment that names proceed from your lips, the Lord steps in, steps you aside, and takes over. That is why the devil doesn’t want you to function in that name. Jesus steps you aside and moves in. That is what happens in the realm of the spirit. Supernaturally, you are moved out of the way of harm, out of the way of obstacles, and out of the way of difficulty. He takes over. And He takes it personally because you carry His name. 

 The name of Jesus is a strong tower. It means rugged and powerful. Tower means stronghold or fortress. It is a source of strength: A person who can be relied upon for support, aid, or comfort, especially in difficult times. It is a castle. It can be depended upon. It gives you stability and settles you. You are not afraid when you run into that tower. In that tower, you receive security. You are covered in the morning, afternoon, and night. 

 Beloved, you are covered! And because you are covered, no weapon formed against you shall prosper. You have the authority to condemn any tongue that shall rise in judgment against you because your righteousness is of the Lord. When everything is falling apart, Jesus becomes your anchor. So, you must learn to build your hope in Christ.
