Though I tried to earn Your loving approbation
To prove my value through works and regulations
Nothing I could do came close to Your perfection
Guilt, shame and fear were my constant companions

But then You revealed Your Love to me
That in You my old self died completely
And in Your resurrection I’m re-born into perfection
Raised to heaven in You, God’s child in re-creation

Lord Jesus I rest in Your righteousness
Your perfection in all its fullness
Filling me through Your indwelling Presence
Your life giving power my true essence

Jesus I rest in Your Perfection
You reveal me as Your reflection

Now I can see, in Your Perfection
All striving can cease as We rejoice in my ascension
To God’s right hand as His whole and Holy child
My identity resorted, Our family reunited

Lord Jesus I rest in Your righteousness
Your perfection in all its fullness
Filling me through Your indwelling Presence
Your life giving power my true essence

All that You are is now my inheritance
With all that You have, You have me blessed
You overcome all with Your Pure Light
And all that I need, You will now provide

Your wisdom and love filling me, heart and mind
Live in Your Presence, as One, face-to-face
My true identity is in Your Embrace

Lord Jesus I rest in Your righteousness
Your perfection in all its fullness
Filling me through Your indwelling Presence
Your life giving power my true essence

Jesus I rest in Your Perfection
You reveal me as Your reflection

Jesus I rest in Your Perfection

“Then the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, and the man became a living person.” Genesis 2:7 NLT
“So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.” Genesis 1:27 NLT
““So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. His son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.’ “But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began. “Meanwhile, the older son was in the fields working. When he returned home, he heard music and dancing in the house, ‘Your brother is back,’ he was told, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf. We are celebrating because of his safe return.’ “The older brother was angry and wouldn’t go in. His father came out and begged him, “His father said to him, ‘Look, dear son, you have always stayed by me, and everything I have is yours. We had to celebrate this happy day. For your brother was dead and has come back to life! He was lost, but now he is found!’””
Luke 15:20-25, 27-28, 31-32 NLT
“All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.” Ephesians 1:3, 5 NLT
“Having determined our destiny ahead of time, he called us to himself and transferred his perfect righteousness to everyone he called. And those who possess his perfect righteousness he co-glorified with his Son!” Romans 8:30 TPT
“And by his one perfect sacrifice he made us perfectly holy and complete for all time” Hebrews 10:14 TPT

True Sons

Let’s celebrate God. He lavished every blessing heaven has upon us in Christ. He associated us in Christ before the fall of the world. Jesus is God’s mind made up about us. He always knew in his love that he would present us again face-to-face before him in blameless innocence. Ephesians 1:3-4 Mirror Bible 
He answered his father, Consider the many years that I have toiled for you like a slave. And at no time did I ever dodge any of your commandments; yet, you never considered rewarding me, even with a little lamb, so I could party with my friends. However, when this son of yours comes here, having devoured your savings by wasting it on prostitutes, you slay the grain-fattened calf. He said to him, My dear child, you are always with me and all that I have is yours. Luke 15:29-31 Mirror Bible


Right from the very beginning
Our value to God was settled
As true Sons of Our Heavenly Father
Our identity in Christ was sealed

As true Sons of Our Heavenly Father
We rejoice in Jesus Christ
Our Saviour and our brother
All that is His is ours

We can’t earn a higher value
Than the one God has given us
To be sealed in Christ as His Sons
Is heaven’s highest place

As true Sons of Our Heavenly Father
We rejoice in Jesus Christ
Our Saviour and our brother
All that is His is ours

We can’t improve our identity
As God’s Sons in His purity
To be born and sealed in Christ
Is heaven’s holiest place

As true Sons of Our Heavenly Father
We rejoice in Jesus Christ
Our Saviour and our brother
All that is His is ours

Sin has no hold over us
For in Christ our wholeness is sealed
Through His death and resurrection
His power in us is revealed

As true Sons of Our Heavenly Father
We rejoice in Jesus Christ
Our Saviour and our brother
All that is His is ours

All that can hold us back
Is our pride and ignorance
For in Christ we nothing lack
His fullness ours to experience

As true Sons of Our Heavenly Father
We rejoice in Jesus Christ
Our Saviour and our brother
All that is His is ours

Right from the very beginning
Our value to God was settled
As true Sons of Our Heavenly Father
Our identity in Christ was sealed

As true Sons of Our Heavenly Father
We rejoice in Jesus Christ
Our Saviour and our brother
All that is His is ours

Suffering

This is why no form of suffering can interfere with my joy. Every suffering on your behalf is just another opportunity to reinforce that which might still be lacking (in your understanding) of the affliction of Christ on behalf of his body which is the church. Colossians 1:24 Mirror Bible

When things in life go wrong
And suffering becomes our lot
There is a grace to grasp hold of
The finished work of the cross

Jesus increase my understanding
Of how Your afflictions are my restoration
You nailed all my suffering to Your cross
So resurrected in You I can freely rejoice

The scars and chains of my and other’s sin
That kept my heart hard and bound in
Have been broken, washed away, made powerless
By Your precious holy blood that You shed on the cross

Jesus increase my understanding
Of how Your afflictions are my restoration
You nailed all my suffering to Your cross
So resurrected in You I can freely rejoice

The burdens I once carried, no matter how heavy
Became Your yoke that You to the cross carried
Dead and buried through Your crucifixion
Freeing me to live joyfully in Your resurrection

Jesus increase my understanding
Of how Your afflictions are my restoration
You nailed all my suffering to Your cross
So resurrected in You I can freely rejoice

The footholds satan had in my heart and mind
Were entombed in Your death as we are united
In Your resurrection life I think and feel as God’s son
Love and wisdom overflowing from You as we are One

Jesus increase my understanding
Of how Your afflictions are my restoration
You nailed all my suffering to Your cross
So resurrected in You I can freely rejoice

The sickness that has plagued me, yesterday or today
Died with You on the cross removing me from it’s sway
In You I have risen to complete newness
Your resurrection power giving me Your wholeness

Jesus increase my understanding
Of how Your afflictions are my restoration
You nailed all my suffering to Your cross
So resurrected in You I can freely rejoice

So any suffering I may experience today
Is a opportunity to know Your Resurrection Power
To experience and understand the fullness of Your Grace
To restore in me the image of God’s fullness

Jesus increase my understanding
Of how Your afflictions are my restoration
You nailed all my suffering to Your cross
So resurrected in You I can freely rejoice

“Everything we could ever need for life and godliness has already been deposited in us by his divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing him who has called us by name and invited us to come to him through a glorious manifestation of his goodness. As a result of this, he has given you magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises we can experience partnership with the divine nature, by which you have escaped the corrupt desires that are of the world.” 2 Peter‬ ‭1:3-4‬ ‭TPT‬‬

God Chose Us

 “And he chose us to be his very own, joining us to himself even before he laid the foundation of the universe! Because of his great love, he ordained us, so that we would be seen as holy in his eyes with an unstained innocence.”
 Ephesians 1:4 TPT
 

 God chose us 
 To be His very own
 Joining us to Himself 
 Before He made the universe!
 Lovingly ordaining us
 As His holy ones
 

 The very first people
 Were innocent and pure
 Made in God’s image
 He gave them this earth to rule
 And a choice to stay like that
 Or go their own way without Him
 

 They chose to go their own way
 To rule without God
 And it broke their hearts and spirits
 As shame and fear took control
 Destroying their relationships 
 With God and other people
 

 But God had chosen us 
 To be His very own
 Joining us to Himself 
 Before He made the universe!
 Lovingly ordaining us
 As His holy ones
 

 Death was the outcome
 Of choosing life without God
 But God had plans to overcome
 The damage we have done
 And restore us to life in Him
 Living with Him as one
 

 Because God chose us 
 To be His very own
 Joining us to Himself 
 Before He made the universe!
 Lovingly ordaining us
 As His holy ones
 

 God sent us a Savior
 A holy, righteous One
 His unity unbroken
 With this most beloved Son
 His Son became human
 To bring us home to Him
 

 Because God chose us 
 To be His very own
 Joining us to Himself 
 Before He made the universe!
 Lovingly ordaining us
 As His holy ones
 

 Jesus lived an amazing life
 That only God‘s true Son could
 Full of forgiveness, love and wisdom
 That no one truly understood
 But the light of His Presence 
 Showed God‘s power to overcome
 

 As one with humanity
 Jesus took our broken identity
 Took our wrongs and condemnation
 Into His death like they were His
 Freeing us from their prison
 To live in His powerful resurrection 
 

 Because God chose us 
 To be His very own
 Joining us to Himself 
 Before He made the universe!
 Lovingly ordaining us
 As His holy ones
 

 This gift of restoration
 Of new life, one with God
 With His powerful Holy Spirit
 Imparting all He is to us
 His holiness and righteousness now central to our being
 His wisdom and insight, our thinking healing
 

 Now One with God 
 We can hear His voice daily
 Do all life with Him
 Empowered by His Spirit 
 To be God’s Sons like Jesus
 All God’s Kingdom inherit
 

 Because God chose us 
 To be His very own
 Joining us to Himself 
 Before He made the universe!
 Lovingly ordaining us
 As His holy ones
 

 The life that Jesus lived
 Full of forgiveness, love and wisdom
 And the power to overcome
 Our brokenness with His healing
 Now flows daily from us
 Through our unity and oneness
 

 This is the answer 
 To all the worlds problems
 Enabling us to care 
 For all creation
 As God’s children and sons
 Fill this world with love and blessings
 

 Because God chose us 
 To be His very own
 Joining us to Himself 
 Before He made the universe!
 Lovingly ordaining us
 As His holy ones
 

 

  
God Chose Us recording
