11We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, in order to make your hope sure. 12Then you will not be sluggish, but will imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised. Heb 6:11-12 BSB

Transition is and will continue to be part and parcel of your walk of faith in Christ. In fact, your journey started with transition. Colossians 1:13 KJV says that upon receipt of salvation in Christ, God translated us from the kingdom of darkness. The verse reads "Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.” Contrary to what you may believe or may have been told, it’s not just a one-time event. Walking by faith in Christ by necessity requires us to go through many such transitions. Knowing our God and His character will help you transform your mind and take your authority in Christ as a citizen of the Kingdom of God.

Where are you in your faith journey? More importantly, where are you in your relationship (intimacy) with God (Abba).  Study the names of God below and begin to pray them over yourself (family, church, friends, business, place of employment). The power in knowing your God allows you to boast in Him and His ability with reverence and humility.
