YOUR PAST DOESN'T HAVE TO DEFINE YOUR IDENTITY!

We've all experienced things in life that have left an impact on us. For some, those experiences involve tremendous pain, trauma, rejection, or loss. We should never minimize what someone has been through or the reality of their suffering.

But here's something we discussed during AUTHENTICITY that I want you to consider. Your identity doesn't have to be established by what you've been through, but by what Jesus went through FOR YOU!

“Therefore if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he is a new creature [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit]; the old things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have passed away. Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life].” 2 Corinthians 5:17 AMP

What happened to you may have been painful, unfair, and completely beyond your control. But those experiences do not have to determine your identity or the direction of your future.

Jesus came to bring us into a relationship with our Heavenly Father, and through Him we can begin discovering who we truly are as children of God. That doesn't mean healing always happens overnight or that painful memories simply disappear. It means our past doesn't have to have the final word.

“So if the Son makes you free, then you are unquestionably free.” John 8:36 AMP

Sometimes we've spent so much time identifying ourselves by what we've experienced that we haven't fully discovered who we've become in Christ.

DON'T ALLOW WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU TO OVERSHADOW WHAT JESUS HAS DONE FOR YOU!

And if you're reading this today and you've been through something difficult, please know this: God loves you! His love isn't determined by your past, your circumstances, or what someone else has done to you.

You are loved, and there is hope and healing available through Jesus Christ!

GOD DOESN'T NEED A WALLET… HE HAS SOMETHING BETTER!

Have you ever heard someone say that God carries a picture of you in His wallet? During this conversation on AUTHENTICITY, Nate shared how someone questioned that very illustration, asking, “Why does God need a wallet?”

Of course, nobody was suggesting that God literally carries a wallet! It's simply an illustration of a loving father who proudly carries a photograph of his children. But here's what's beautiful. God has given us an even greater picture of His love in Scripture!

“Indeed, I have inscribed [a picture of] you on the palms of My hands...” Isaiah 49:16 AMP

Think about that! God doesn't need a wallet to remember you. He knows you, He loves you, and you are never forgotten! Sometimes we become so focused on questioning an illustration that we completely miss the heart of the message.

And when someone challenges something we've shared, we have an opportunity to respond with grace rather than allowing the conversation to become an argument. After all, the point isn't whether God has a wallet. The point is how deeply our Heavenly Father loves us!

GOD DOESN'T NEED YOUR PICTURE IN HIS WALLET. HE'S ALREADY INSCRIBED YOU ON THE PALMS OF HIS HANDS!

What a beautiful reminder that our Heavenly Father knows us personally and loves us deeply!

ARE YOU TOO BUSY SERVING JESUS TO SPEND TIME WITH JESUS?

Have you ever been so busy doing things for God that you've neglected spending time with Him?

In Luke 10:38–42, Martha welcomed Jesus into her home and immediately became busy serving. Meanwhile, her sister Mary chose to sit at Jesus' feet and listen to His Word.

Martha became frustrated and asked Jesus to tell Mary to help her. But Jesus responded:

“Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered and anxious about so many things; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part...” Luke 10:41–42 AMP

Notice something. Martha wasn't doing anything bad! She was serving Jesus! But Scripture tells us she was distracted with much serving.

During this conversation on AUTHENTICITY, Nate reminds us that we're called to serve and be the hands and feet of Jesus, but we must never allow our service to replace our fellowship with Him.

SERVING JESUS SHOULD NEVER TAKE THE PLACE OF SITTING AT HIS FEET!

It's easy to fill our schedules with ministry, responsibilities, and good intentions while neglecting the very relationship that gives everything else meaning.

Mary recognized what mattered most. She chose to listen to Jesus.

So here's a question worth asking ourselves today:

ARE YOU SPENDING MORE TIME WORKING FOR JESUS THAN SPENDING TIME WITH JESUS?

Before the responsibilities, before the ministry, before the busyness—make time to sit at His feet and receive His Word!

YOU CAN BE DOING GOOD THINGS AND STILL BE STRETCHED TOO THIN!

Have you ever been so busy doing good things that you neglected taking care of yourself?

During this conversation on AUTHENTICITY, Nate shared how the Lord began dealing with him at the beginning of the year about something we often overlook.

“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Matthew 22:39 AMP

Think about that. How can we effectively love and serve others if we're continually neglecting our own well-being?

Nate wasn't involved in bad things. He was doing good things! But his schedule had become so full that he was stretching himself too thin. And as he humorously pointed out, it wasn't his waistline getting thinner!

As he listened to the Lord, he began stepping away from certain responsibilities, making adjustments, and taking better care of himself. The result? A renewed sense of direction and positive changes in his health and daily life.

“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is within you...” 1 Corinthians 6:19 AMP

Sometimes spiritual maturity isn't about adding another responsibility. It's about recognizing what God is actually asking us to do and being willing to make adjustments.

JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS GOOD DOESN'T MEAN GOD IS ASKING YOU TO DO IT!

Take time to listen to the Holy Spirit. Steward your time, your health, and the responsibilities He's entrusted to you.

Remember, taking care of yourself isn't necessarily selfish. It can be part of being a faithful steward of what God has given you!

WHO ARE YOU HELPING TO BECOME GREATER THAN YOU?

It's one thing to want someone to succeed. But are we willing to help them succeed beyond anything we've ever accomplished?

During this conversation on AUTHENTICITY, Nate shared something that God began dealing with him about several years ago. Instead of focusing on whether other people wanted him to succeed, he began asking himself a different question.

“Who am I helping to excel? Who am I helping to grow beyond anything I could ever do?”

That's a question worth examining in our own hearts!

Sometimes we can become so focused on our own accomplishments, opportunities, and recognition that we overlook the people God has placed in our lives to encourage, equip, and help grow.

But the Kingdom of God isn't a competition!

“Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit [through factional motives, or strife], but with [an attitude of] humility [being neither arrogant nor self-righteous], regard others as more important than yourselves.” Philippians 2:3 AMP

Think about Jesus and His disciples. He didn't spend His earthly ministry trying to protect His position from those He was teaching. He invested in them, equipped them, and prepared them to carry the Gospel into the world.

And in John 14:12, Jesus spoke about those who believe in Him doing even greater works!

Nate shared that when his focus began shifting toward helping others excel, he began seeing other doors open in his own life as well.

What a change in perspective! Instead of asking, “Who's helping me get ahead?” we can begin asking, “Who can I help move forward?”

Whether we're serving in ministry, leading a family, mentoring young people, or simply encouraging someone along their journey, we have opportunities to invest in others.

TRUE KINGDOM LEADERSHIP ISN'T ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE FOLLOWING YOU. IT'S ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU'RE HELPING GROW!

So here's a question for all of us today: Who are you intentionally helping to become everything God has called them to be—even if they go further than you ever have?

Good morning y'all!!! Have a blessed day!!

THE DOOR WAS OPEN… BUT I ALMOST WALKED RIGHT PAST IT!

For 22½ years, Jesus was my Savior. I was born again, but there was so much more to my relationship with Him that I had yet to experience. A little over five years ago, something changed. I began pressing into His Word, developing my relationship with Him, and allowing Him to become Lord of my everyday life.

During this conversation on AUTHENTICITY, Nate was sharing about the open door in Revelation 3:8, and I realized he was describing my own journey!

“I know your deeds. Behold, I have put before you an open door which no one can shut...” Revelation 3:8 NASB

As I began responding to the leading of the Holy Spirit, things started unfolding in my life. God placed it on my heart to write a book, which I'm now finalizing. He directed me to complete Charis Bible College, which I've done. He led Tara and me to the Philippines, where we've had the privilege of ministering, and we're preparing to return in 2027.

But here's what I want you to understand. The doors didn't open because I suddenly became qualified. I began recognizing the doors that were already open and choosing to walk through them!

You can spend years walking down a hallway and completely miss an open door because your focus is somewhere else. You can even convince yourself that a door is closed when it's actually standing wide open!

And here's where we can get ourselves into trouble. Sometimes we're so determined to open a particular door that we walk right past the opportunity God has placed before us, only to force our way into something He never directed us toward.

“And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind...” Romans 12:2 AMP

Our perspective matters! What we're focused on matters! And learning to recognize the leading of the Holy Spirit matters!

I can look back over my life and see the difference that pressing into my relationship with Jesus has made. Not because God changed, but because my understanding, my focus, and my willingness to respond began changing.

WHAT IF THE DOOR YOU'VE BEEN PRAYING TO OPEN IS ALREADY OPEN, BUT YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION?

YOU'RE IN THE HALLWAY, BUT THERE'S AN OPEN DOOR AHEAD!

Have you ever felt like you're standing in a hallway, waiting for the next door to open? You know God has something ahead of you, but right now you're in that place between where you've been and where you're going.

In Revelation 3:8, Jesus makes a powerful statement to the church in Philadelphia.

“I know your deeds. Behold, I have put before you an open door which no one can shut...” Revelation 3:8 NASB

Think about those first four words. “I know your deeds.”

God knows you! He knows your successes, your failures, your struggles, and the things nobody else sees. Nothing about your life catches Him by surprise.

And yet, in that same verse, Jesus declares that He has placed an open door before them that no one can shut!

What an encouragement to know that our Heavenly Father sees us, knows us, and is faithful to His Word.

Sometimes we become so focused on the hallway we're standing in that we lose sight of the door God has placed before us. We begin questioning the timing, looking at our circumstances, or wondering whether we've somehow missed what God has for us.

But here's something I want to encourage you with today. Don't allow the hallway to determine your perspective!

Continue fellowshipping with your Heavenly Father. Stay established in His Word. Remain sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit, and don't allow discouragement to keep you from taking the next step.

The hallway may be where you're standing today, but it doesn't have to be where you remain.

KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS, NOT JUST THE HALLWAY!
