LESSONS

1. The Level of Revelation you have about your Identity is directly proportional to the Level of impact you have.

• Jesus knew who He was (John 9:5)
• You must know who you are (Mat 5:14, John 1:12)
• Many musicians are unable to rise to the Apex of their delivery because they fail the IDENTITY QUESTION: WHO AM I?
• As a musician, before you sing or play, always ask yourself “who am I”?

2. You need a good relationship to make a good report
   Your identity in the Kingdom of God is connected to Christ Jesus and the song you sing is an extension of the relationship you have with Him.

The relationship comes first before the song

Mark 7:6
6 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

1 John 1:1
1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;

PRAYER

1. Father in Heaven,
   Grant me the grace to get deeper in relationship with You, to sing from a relationship with You and not merely a report about You
