You are a member of a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His possession, so that you may proclaim the praises of the one who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. You are God’s workmanship, created in Christ to do good works that He has prepared for you to do. You are a joint-heir with Christ and more than a conqueror through Him who loves you. You are the righteousness of God—you have right standing with Him—in Jesus Christ. Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit; You belong to Him. You are saved by God’s grace, raised up with Christ and seated with Him in heavenly places. The Holy Spirit the body of Christ into His character so that we are well equipped to serve in His Kingdom with Him as our King. For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess. Deuteronomy 30:16
