- “The Bible says that our real problem is that every one of us is building our identity on something besides Jesus.”- Tim Keller
Understanding who we truly are is crucial to living as a child of God, but that's not always easy to discover in a world where identity can be so easily masked and confused. What happens when you build your life on the wrong identity? What is your identity NOT built on? What happens when you build your life on the correct identity? And what actually IS the identity of EVERY believer?
Key Points Covered:
1. The Dangers of a Misplaced Identity
2. Recognizing False Identities
3. The Power of a Christ-Centered Identity
4. The Truth About Our Identity in Christ
5. Living Out Our True Identity
Scripture References:
Colossians 3:1-3
Matthew 7:24-27
1 John 2:15-17
2 Corinthians 5:17
Romans 8:38-39
Isaiah 43:25
Psalm 103:12
1 John 3:1
John 15:5

Romans 8:17

As a child & teenager I was repeatedly called by my step-mother, her favorite words; bastard & prostitute. For many years I didn’t know what the words meant just knew it was bad. In my freshman year, I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and learned my true identity as a child of God. This episode reiterated the scriptures which declare my true identity. I continue till this day to take therapy for all the horrific childhood traumas I lived. I feel that the word dysfunction doesn’t encompass all the damage caused to my siblings and I. Preston, it is admirable for you and your wife to have adopted Maxon. I commend you and your wife for such a courageous action, And for your loving hearts. Thank you for sharing everything you feel the Lord gives you with us. I love the leaders cut.
The spirit of jealousy and Jezebel was upon her very similar to that of my own stepmother who did everything she did to destroy me, BUT GOD 🙏🏻❤️ I pray for restoration in your mind, heart, soul, & spirit from our Heavenly Father! He is the healer that we need and I am so sorry you went through those experiences but know He is so much greater which is why His beautiful light in you bothered her so much!
I broke down in to tears when you said "you are forgiven"
This is a multiple listen episode!!! 🔥🤍🙌🏽
Yep! This is my second go around and it still blesses my soul!!! ❤
It is not a coincidence that when I opened up TH-cam this morning, this broadcast was coming on. Thank you so much for reinforcing and laying down biblical truth about who I am! Yes I'm going to have to go back and listen to this several times to get all the nuggets out of this and all the scriptures scriptures to build my Arsenal against the voices of the enemy
Amen! Your words are my exact sediments!!!
The enemy keeps repeating to me that I’m too old to have a husband and children and sometimes I do believe this lie…at times I want to give up believing that the Lord will answer my prayers..thanks Preston for the reminder on who I am.
Do not, because evil is attempting to destroy the beautiful families we shall have because that is what He created us for, Kingdom focused families ❤️🙏🏻 May He bless and keep you during this beautiful season of growth you are stepping into!
Tiphani Montgomery leads an incredible 25 day fast called The Year of the Bride, its on TH-cam, I highly recommend it
I needed to hear this. The way I'm crying right now. Tears of relief and happiness and positively overwhelmed. I know who I am. And I am a Child of God! His Son. His heir. His co-heir!
Pickle, fickle 😂. Thank you so much for this conversation, great teaching, I was drawn in all the way. 🙏🏽Holy Spirit for this session 🤯awesome!!!
Thank you Preston! This message was right on time for me. It has blessed me in a major way. I've affirmed these scriptures over myself and children!
God’s passion and love for us is so intense that He wipes away our sins for His sake. Can you imagine God loves his creation soo much that He wants nothing more than to be with us always?
Once again, Holy Spirit, you broke me ❤❤!!! Pastor Preston thank you! God Bless you!
You are preaching good
“God IS the inheritance” ❤❤❤. Wow….Amen.
First time joining. Blessings from Johannesburg South Africa 🖐️
Great Wisdom today... Thank you so much for confirming who I Am in Christ!! #GodsWay
I really likes your prayer at the beginning. A simple prayer but full of wisdom and heart warming.
This was so God!!! I love how God responds to us when we pray. Some weeks I woke up to the words "identity crisis". The Holy Spirit put words to what I had been suffering and ever sense the The Father has been reminding me who I am NOT and who I am IN him.Thank you Lord for using your servent @prestonmorrison to speak to me. AMEN!
Thank you for this beautiful and awesome reminder of who we are in Christ Jesus. ❤ amen
It is a joy to join you this morning. From Colorado
That is true we need to renew our mind daily with the word of God.
Hey all! Blessings from the north of the Netherlands. I love the Leader's Cut so much, it's such a great community. It's been such a blessing to have found this community. Thanks for sharing what God puts on your heart in such a vulnerable way. There is so much power in vulnerability based on the love God gives. God bless all of you
Such beautiful reminders! We are new beings (Creatures) in Christ. You are not your past, who you know, what's in your genes, what you do, but because You are Loved by THE MOST HIGH! 🥰 So Good.
Pastor, this message is so timely for this season in my life... Thank you for your 'YES'
Thank you Presto..designed for devine places 100%
I just want to take the time to appreciate the imagery and the examples you use. I thank God for the Holy Spirit working through you. This helps drive home so many of these points you make!
Thank you Preston for this message. I will come back to this over and over. This is something I've struggled with for a long time and never could put words to what exactly I was chasing. I needed this word today. ❤

🎶 I’ve been changed! I’m a newborn now, all my life has been rearranged. What a difference it made, when the Lord came and stayed in my life. Oh yes, I’ve been changed! 🎶

The Kenyan in me is like :" we wacha!!"😮💨translation "bars" #blessed
Thank you Pastor Preston. You are a blessing. Love you more!!
This episode completely wrecked me… in the most beautiful way. I cried multiple times. So so good! Thank you for this truth and reminder of who I am and whose I am. I am the Daughter of a capital K King and nothing can separate me from His love for me. ❤
Thats such a cool picture, and elephant to an aeroplane.. awesome
Yes Amen 🙌🏾
This came at a time I needed it most. I sat on the floor or my prayer closet and wrote down every identity of a believer on the wall so I can see it every day
Thank you Preston!! Love you and how you presented this message. I felt the love and see you as a big brother. I have been hearing from God on this topic this past week so when I saw your title I gasped. (It's not the first time this happened btw). I truly appreciate your ministry! May God bless you and your family!
Another powerful message! Thank you God for Your Son, Word, Your church and Your children. The gems Pillar/Preston has gifted us is supernatural, just like our Daddy. Preach Bro!
God you are so good

Wow! Wow! My goodness! What a message and great reminder. Thank you again Preston! We all need to share this with others
The story of the nameless little girl is my story 😭❤️🩹✝️🥹
My goodness this was heavy for me 😩 when will I believe believe that God forgives me and still loves me because He loves me 😩😩😩🤦🏾♀️
This was so good really put me in perspective
Thank you Lord!!!❤
Oooh so needed & necessary!!!! I have to pause to just receive all of what I heard. Holy Spirit my 🫀is so full I am overflowing with tears 😭of joy. After the demonic battle I come across this message. And it is well worth it too. God’s timing is so perfect. I can now BE STILL & KNOW THAT HE IS GOD ☝🏽 Jesus I am FOREVER GRATEFUL 🕊🔥❤️🔥 Thank you, Big Brother Preston!!! 🥰✌🏽
I cannot just listen to this once, it's impossible!
Loved this message!
Abundant life …
Thank you for this message 🔥
Yeah. Know Jesus. The only name I know.
This episode may just be my favorite so far. Yes, we all know things we should not build our identity on but, we have never been able to dimension what building your identity on Christ looks like. Thank you so much Preston, there is so much to unpack from this one. God bless you ❤
😭Thank You
I’m Savannah, and I’m from Colorado! I’ve been struggling with an eating disorder and finding my true identity in Christ and not in works has been such a battle for me, but the episode that talks about numbing pain and why it only prolongs the pain has helped so much. I’m tuning in to see what else the Lord has to say!
This video needs more views , this was heartfelt , may God bless you and extend the days of your life
32 mins in and wow!!!! so powerful!!!
Thank you so much.
Thank you Pastor.
Storm, shorms 😂🥲🙏🏽 Thank you Pastor. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Father. I am known by You. ❤️😭🥲
From the Philippines ❤😊
Found you through Megan Ashley’s Podcast & loved your interview. I’m located in CT!! Thank you for your words and reading scriptures 🙏🏻✨
My 3rd video from this channel
Thank you, Preston.
Watching from North Texas! Have enjoyed your messages since you were in Southlake!
I love your videos so much because you always drop wisdom, and this video blessed me so much. I like that you were saying words of affirmation but with the word of God and not from your own words because some of us would probably not believe the things you were saying, but when you add scripture, it makes a difference because it's from God (2 Timothy 3:16). God's word is truth (John 17:17). Thank you for posting and sharing this with us.
Thank You for this 🙏🏾❤️
Whewwwww I needed to hear this!!!
Thank you so much for your content !
Here from Detroit Michigan, was introduced to you by Megan Ashley and I immediately started following you and love your podcast. And I thank you so very much for what you do. Please keep me in your prays.
Needed this so bad!!
❤❤❤
First time here . Keokuk IA.
I feel like most preachers/teachers bring up our sin/sins more then not, like GOD says I don’t see you that way,forgive/forgotten….. but it’s us who bring them up- it’s very confusing
Thank you for the reminder. I don't have instragram or I'd drop a message. I think it's hard to see therfore impossible to do. I think I've held on as long as I can to the hope of being more. Maybe the peace comes when I stop trying to do anything. Maybe average is okay as long as it's not so I can live in sin. I have watched intently since day one. By no means am I saying things are not better internal but by far worse external. I just wanted to help people. Somehow this started a great chase to nothing. So please 🙏 know how grateful I am for you. I have to leave this chase alone. It's rabbit trails and trials. I believe God loves me. I don't think whatever I thought I saw was real. A picture or dream whatever it wasn't real. I'm notorious for using my mind to hide from truth. At least this stop has a level of love o don't normally receive from people.
Hello pastor
I'm just a branch
🥹❤️🔥
My goodness this was heavy for me 😩 when will I believe believe that God forgives me and still loves me because He loves me 😩😩😩🤦🏾♀️
AMEN! 🙏
