Weekly Devotional – Week of September 30 2025 – I Am Who Christ Says I Am

Weekly Devotional: I Am Who Christ Says I Am

Day 1 – Monday: I Am Chosen

Scripture: “For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” (Ephesians 1:4)

Reflection:
You are not an accident. Before you were born, before the world began, God chose you. Your value doesn’t come from popularity, accomplishments, or approval. It comes from God’s eternal decision to love you.

Action Step: Write down three false labels you’ve believed about yourself. Cross them out and write “CHOSEN” over them.

Prayer:
Lord, thank You for choosing me before time began. Help me walk today knowing I am loved and wanted by You. Amen.

Day 2 – Tuesday: I Am Adopted

Scripture: “He predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will.” (Ephesians 1:5)

Reflection:
Through Christ, you are not just accepted—you’re adopted. You belong to God’s family. Adoption means full rights as His child, an heir with Christ.

Action Step: Call or message a family member or friend in Christ to remind them, “You are God’s child, and He delights in you.”

Prayer:
Father, thank You for bringing me into Your family. Remind me today that I am not an orphan but a son/daughter of the King. Amen.

Day 3 – Wednesday: I Am Redeemed

Scripture: “In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace.” (Ephesians 1:7)

Reflection:
Redemption means Jesus bought you back from sin. No chain is too strong, no past too dark. His blood paid the price in full.

Action Step: Reflect on one area where shame has tried to define you. Declare aloud: “I am redeemed. That does not define me—Christ does.”

Prayer:
Jesus, thank You for paying the price to set me free. Help me walk in the freedom You purchased for me. Amen.

Day 4 – Thursday: I Am a New Creation

Scripture: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” (2 Corinthians 5:17)

Reflection:
Your past is not your present. You are not just improved; you are brand-new in Christ. God didn’t clean up the old—you are a new creation with a new identity.

Action Step: Take a sticky note, write “NEW CREATION,” and place it on your mirror. Each time you look in the mirror today, say it aloud.

Prayer:
Lord, thank You for making me new. Give me the courage to let go of old identities and walk in who You say I am. Amen.

Day 5 – Friday: I Am Empowered by Christ

Scripture: “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.” (Galatians 2:20)

Reflection:
You don’t live this life on your own strength. Christ lives in you. The Spirit empowers you to live in faith, courage, and purpose.

Action Step: Before you face your biggest challenge today, pause and pray: “Christ lives in me—give me strength.”

Prayer:
Jesus, thank You that You live in me. Empower me by Your Spirit to walk boldly in faith today. Amen.

Day 6 – Saturday: I Am Secure in Christ

Scripture: “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.” (John 10:27–28)

Reflection:
Your identity in Christ is unshakable. Nothing can steal you from His hand. In a world of insecurity, you are secure in Him forever.

Action Step: Spend 10 minutes in quiet, thanking God for His secure hold on your life.

Prayer:
Lord, thank You that nothing can take me out of Your hand. Help me rest in the security of Your love. Amen.

Day 7 – Sunday: I Am Sent with Purpose

Scripture: “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.” (Matthew 5:14)

Reflection:
Being chosen, redeemed, renewed, and empowered isn’t just for you—it’s for the world to see Christ in you. Your identity fuels your purpose: to shine His light.

Action Step: Invite someone to church today or share one truth from this week’s devotion with a friend.

Prayer:
Lord, thank You for giving me identity and purpose. Help me shine Your light today as I live as who You say I am. Amen.
