When you follow Jesus, He gives you a new name. This name is a promise hinting at your destiny, your gifting, and your true character. You are who God says you are.  Besides your personal name, God has a lot to say about your identity in the Bible as well. With God's Word, you can confidently declare: I am a child of God- John 1:12   I am a branch connected to the vine. I am a fruit-bearer. John 15:1, 5   I am a friend of Jesus. John 15:15   I am justified and redeemed. Rom 3:24   I am not a slave to sin. I am free. Rom 6:6   I am not condemned. I am accepted. Rom 8:1   I am an heir of heaven.
