You Are Bar Elyon

Thursday, May 11, 2023

Many names in the Bible contain the word "Bar," meaning "son of". Simon Bar-Jonah, Bartholomew and Barabbas which means "son of the father." The word Bar-mitzvah, means "son of the commandments." Messiah is called Bar-Elyon, which means, "Son of the Most High." We're to be little versions of Him, a little child of the Most High. What does that mean? Your identity isn't based on yourself any more. It doesn't come from you, your life, or your past. It comes from your Father in heaven. You are no longer Bar-bitterness- -a child of bitterness, Bar-failure- -a child of failure, Bar-sin- -a child of sin, or Bar-hurt- -a child of rejection, hurt and wounds. All those things are not you anymore. You are Bar-Elyon, a child of the Most High. That's your identity, you are born from above. Your identity comes from Elyon, the Most High. That's who you are, a beloved, holy child of the Most High. Start believing it. Start receiving it. Start living like it and acting like it. Because you, too, are a little version of Bar-Elyon, a child of the Most High.
