To be completely honest, I have written this blog probably 4 times and each time it has either gotten erased due to the fact that my computer freezes, or like this morning only the title got posted. Every time I post it, the truth is reinforced in my heart. You see, I have daily lived by fear and in bondage that the lies of Satan put me in. He steals my joy and peace. Too many times I have fallen into Satans traps of despair. Too many times have I lived by what others think of me and base my self worth on that. Too many times I have disregarded the Lord and listened to people. Too many times I have put myself down and cared too much what I look like. Too many times I have missed out on loving others the way Christ does because of fear or judgement. At training camp last week, the Lord called me to give up my Identity in the way I look, and all the silly little things I have based it on. He called me to know the Truth about my identity and to live by it! He called me to abandon everything and follow Him.
Today I believe the Truth:
I am
His beloved,
God’s Coworker
God’s child
United with the Lord
a Saint
FREE OF CONDEMNATION
secure in Christ
hidden in Christ with God
the salt and light of the earth
God’s Temple
Gods Workmanship
a personal witness of Christ
His Princess and daughter
He chose me and lifted me out of death
(compiled by Neil Anderson)
Praise God for the Truth because the Truth sets us Free!
“Now it is God who makes us stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.” 2 Corinthians 1:21-22
