“Remember who you are.” -Mufasa

Yes, I’m quoting a cartoon. Truthfully, how profound a statement for a father to give to his son! All of Simba’s authority was settled in who his father was. His enemy planted a lie that took root and grew insecurities. So long as he was distracted by fear, he roamed about powerless and outside of his home. He only had to remember his true identity to step into his authority and change the world.

What a parallel to the spiritual atmosphere today! There is a prodigal son storyline there. People, sons and daughters, are living powerless, defeated, and far from home because they have no understanding of their identity.

We have a Father who reminds us… Remember who you are. “As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name.” John 1:12
