Who Are You Becoming? Growing Up Into Christ Through Divine Essence, Good Energy, and Great Expectations

"Speaking the truth in love, may grow up into Christ in all things, who is the head." – Ephesians 4:15

   As we continue stepping into the next dimension of spiritual awareness, consider this powerful question: Who do you desire to be when you grow up? This is no longer a childhood question about careers, houses, cars, marriage, or status. It is a question of character, essence, and way of being.

   When your name is mentioned in a room, what do people experience? What presence do you carry? The answer often depends on the system from which you operate: the world system that excludes God, the church system that includes God peripherally, or the Kingdom system where God remains at the center of everything.

   According to Ephesians 4:15, we are called to grow up into Christ in all things. This is not about religious performance. It is about transformation of being.

1. In Essence: Desire to Be Divine

"Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High." – Psalm 82:6

   At your core, your true essence is divine. Scripture declares that we are made in the image and likeness of God and are partakers of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:4). This means your identity is not rooted in your circumstances, struggles, health challenges, financial situations, or relationship status.

   You are a spiritual being in a spiritual universe, governed by the law of love and Kingdom principles. The Word was God and became flesh (John 1:1, 14). That same divine expression lives through you.

   Beyond every issue stands this eternal truth: God manifested in the flesh. That is your essence.

2. In Energy: Desire to Be Good

   If your essence is God, then your energy must radiate goodness. Good energy expresses love, joy, peace, comfort, and calm assurance. People may not remember your title apostle, prophet, pastor, bishop, elder, or deacon but they will always remember how your presence made them feel.

   Energy reveals spirit, intention, and motive. When negative energy enters the room, insecurity may cause withdrawal. But when you are rooted in divine essence, you carry the authority to transform atmospheres.

   Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4). Trust the discernment of your spirit in business decisions, relationships, and opportunities. Remember, it is not people who create conflict it is mindsets.

3. In Expectations: Desire Greatness

"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think..." – Ephesians 3:20

   When your essence is divine and your energy is good, your expectations naturally become great. Expect miracles. Expect favor. Expect meaningful connections. Expect each day to surpass the one before.

   Low expectations create room for disappointment. High expectations align you with Kingdom reality. God does not operate in limitation, and neither should you.

   To grow up into Christ is to live from this threefold awareness: Essence as God. Energy as Good. Expectations as Great. This is the pathway into abundant and eternal life. This is stepping fully into the next dimension.

   So again, the question remains: Who are you becoming?

📖 Reflection: When others experience your presence, do they encounter divine love, goodness, and great expectation?
