In life you have certain advantages available to you. As a trader, I have drawn on these truths for many years. I know my identity, and it has helped me to become a better trader. I personally identify with every one of the 42 items listed in the table below.
You have the opportunity to find your own identity. Once you have found it, you will never want to let it go. According to scripture you are, if you choose, all of the things written in the table below.
The Bible clearly states that humans are made a little lower than the angels. However, that doesn't mean we have to stay that way. Only human beings are created in the image of God. Accepting what the Bible says will reveal to anyone their true identity. You can be royalty, a child of God, a person with more power than has been given to any angel.
