Day 3 | January 7

DAY 3 | January 7, 2026 | Identity In Christ

Read: 2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.”

Reflect: Formation begins with learning to see yourself the way God sees you. In Christ, you are made new. You are not defined by past mistakes, failures, or limitations. God is at work in you, and He is shaping you into the likeness of Jesus. When you understand your identity in Him, it brings freedom from shame, fear, and comparison. As you continue to grow, remember that real transformation flows from who you are in Christ, not from who you once were or who others expect you to be.

Pray: Jesus, help me embrace my identity in You. Let me live as the new creation You have made me to be. Shape my thoughts, actions, and decisions to reflect who I am in Christ.

Prayer Points:

  • Thank God for making you a new creation in Christ.

  • Pray for freedom from shame, fear, and comparison.

  • Ask God to renew your mind with truth about who you are in Him.

  • Pray for confidence rooted in Christ, not performance.

  • Ask God to help you live out your identity daily.

  • Pray that old labels and lies would lose their power.

  • Ask God to form Christlike character through your identity in Him.
