I Am Who I Am

Dr Dharius Daniels·Change Church

Thursday, December 7, 2023

Summary

True spiritual growth, elevation, and anointing occur when believers align with their authentic, God-given identity rather than trying to imitate others. God uniquely designs every believer with a specific 'gift mix' tailored for their current season and calling. By following God's presence through life's shifting seasons and cultivating contentment, we can operate in the supernatural grace and power intended for us.

Key Points

1.Your increase, elevation, and personal evolution are directly tied to your alignment with your authentic self.
2.God's empowering anointing flows on your true identity, not on a counterfeit version of who you are trying to be.
3.The enemy uses identity theft to make believers seek through illegitimate means what God has already given them.
4.A gift mix is a meticulously selected combination of spiritual gifts given by God for a specific assignment and season.
5.As life seasons shift, the dominant spiritual gifts in your life may shift to meet new demands.
6.True spiritual satisfaction comes from following the cloud of God's presence rather than seeking titles, clout, or position.
7.Failing to shift when God moves leads to losing spiritual effectiveness and missing out on future blessings.
8.Spiritual contentment must be intentionally learned in every state and season of life.

Sermon Moments

“Prayer is an invitation for God's participation in your situation.”

“We worship God, not moves.”

“Your increase, your elevation, and your evolution is tied to your alignment with your authentic self.”

“God will not help you be anyone other than you.”

“A gift mix is a unique combination of spiritual gifts that God gives to a specific person for their specific assignment.”

“My definition of a backslider is somebody that is where God was.”

“Love the calling you have, not the one you wish you had.”

“Boredom is not God's sanctioning of your exit.”

This Week

Take time this week to reflect on your authentic identity in Christ instead of comparing your gifts to others.
Complete a spiritual gifts assessment to help discern your current gift mix.
Evaluate whether you are currently in a season of shift and pray for the courage to follow where God is leading.
Identify and reject counterfeit reasons for making major life moves, such as offense, boredom, or ungodly ambition.
Combat spiritual identity theft by regularly meditating on scriptures like Genesis 1:26.
Practice contentment by choosing to value and express gratitude for your present calling and assignment.
Look for practical ways to blend your distinct spiritual gifts to serve others in your family, work, or church.

Remember This

Your spiritual elevation and authority are unlocked when you embrace your authentic identity and the unique gift mix God assigned to you for this season.

A Challenge for You

Love the calling you have, not the one you wish you had.
