AUTHENTICITY IS KEY

---

I challenge you today to be authentic to who you really are in God. Don’t hide behind people’s opinions, criticisms, or actions towards you or about you. The Father wants us to be free!

“Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.” – John 8:36

Honestly, it’s too much work to try to be something we’re not – and absolutely absurd to try and meet other people’s expectations of ourselves. God designed each one of us with His Purpose for us. The only responsibility we have is to God, to surrender ourselves to Him, and to see through what He has for us. After all, what would we be other than what God has created us to be?

We would become the slaves of this world, which at some point is going to fade out and end. There is no ending in our Creator! God is eternal, everlasting, and that’s who we are as long as we remain in Him!

“Remain in me as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.” – John 15:4

AUTHENTIC – of undisputed origin; genuine; real; actual; true.

There is only one authentic one, God our Father. As His children, we are given the opportunity to flow in His Spirit by our surrender to Him, and our choice to remain with Him. As His image and likeness, we are truly blessed to reflect His image of authenticity to a dying world, desperately in need of a Savior.

So what will it be for you today? Will you succumb to the downfall of this deadly world in which we are existing? Or will you take hold today to walk, move, and breath in and through the heartbeat of the Father’s Love for us and live!

There is life – eternal, never-ending life in God! The authentic life that can only come from Him! It really doesn’t matter your circumstance. Don’t hide behind it, anything, or anyone. Relinquish it wholeheartedly to the Father and watch Him work on your behalf. That’s all it takes. Stay away from the naysayers and move forward into what God has called you to do. Then watch creation respond to the authenticity reflected in the Father’s own. They are waiting.

“The entire universe is standing on tiptoe, yearning to see the unveiling of God’s glorious sons and daughters!” – Romans 8:19 TPT

Keep things real with God because He already knows. He knows exactly what and who is genuine, real, actual, and true. This life that we have been given has never belonged to us. It has always belonged to God. We must be authentic in our approach to accepting the invitation to come up higher with Him! It is in the highest of heights where we will find the golden key to authenticity! The authenticity of God’s masterpiece, found in you and me!
