Thank you for listening to this message from Damon Thompson Ministries.

I don't really know why we called a service tonight except to say that I think we needed to process

what the Lord's saying about this state. And Tammy confirmed at lunch to me today she was sitting

and thinking in the middle of the service, we need to come back again tonight and so there there there there some I think oftentimes what the Lord would do is he'll say

don't don't let that go in one ear and out the other stop here for a minute hit pause and uh and really

let this go as deep as it needs to go so I want to share a few things with you I mentioned one

earlier and we're just as you guys feel to jump in here let's just let's just let's just edit go as deep as it needs to go. So I want to share a few things with you. I mentioned one earlier,

and we'll just, as you guys feel to jump in here, let's just, let's just ebb and flow a little bit,

okay, as you feel, as you feel to jump in here. So let me say this. Identity is an inheritance

only received in an unwavering commitment to the lifestyle of devotion.

Let me say that again. Identity is an inheritance only received in an unwavering

commitment to the lifestyle of devotion. Pay careful attention to the pattern that

we're discovering, both individually and corporately, devotion has unlocked identity.

Let me read that last part of that again.

Pay careful attention to the pattern that we're discovering both individually and corporately.

Devotion has unlocked identity.

On the heels of a real commitment to say we're going after devotion,

the Lord immediately begin to show up and deal with us.

First about misidentification.

First about misidentification so that he could deal with us about authentic identification.

So devotion does both.

The first phases of devotion, most people bail out
