The life of Joseph- His Identity
Who are we?
1.We are born of God. John 1:12-13
We are born physically in this part of the world but yet we need to know that we are not of this world because the scripture says we are born of God.
Eg: Your mother may give birth to you in a hospital. You are born in the hospital but it does not mean you are part/belong of the membership of the hospital. You belong to your parents.
The day we received Him we are the children of God that’s not born of blood/flesh but of God. John 1:12-13
That’s why it does not matter what our background/status or our past is because we are born of God.
To Joseph it no longer matter if he had a bad past or if he was an immigrant in Egypt because he knew who he was!!!
He is a citizen of the kingdom of God (heaven)!!!
That’s why it not about we holding the citizenship of this earth but we are holding the citizenship of the kingdom of God!!!
Those born of God in His kingdom are His citizen.
We hold the citizenship of the kingdom of God!!!
No matter how our past may be. It could be people look down on us, lack of opportunities, felt out of place like an immigrant and etc.
All these no longer matter nor can hold us back from moving forward because we are born of God!!!!!
2.We are the children of God
He gave us the right to become the children of God. John 1:12.
We have received a spirit of adoption by which we can cry, “Abba Father!” Rom 8:14-16
Joseph knew who his God was. This same God is the God of his father (Jacob) and his grandfather (Abraham)
We need to know who our Father is!!! God himself is our Father because we are born of Him!!! He is the King of all Kings and that’s why we are His prince!!!
