Please try to use below codes.

In Phtml File:

<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('Magento\Cms\Block\Block')->setBlockId('block_identifier')->toHtml();?>

in CMS Content:

{{block class="Magento\\Cms\\Block\\Block" block_id="block_identifier"}}

In Xml File:

<referenceContainer name="content">
    <block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="block_identifier">
        <arguments>
            <argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">block_identifier</argument>
        </arguments>
    </block>
</referenceContainer>
