Today we will look at another key to your identity and it’s obedience to the Father. Every true Son or Daughter will be marked by obedience to the Father.
You are one with God. There should be a continual transformation from glory to glory.
If you desire the greatest fountain of strength and resolve to be you, find it in the Holy Spirit.
Avoid the pit of comparison. God has made you unique and He is the only One who can help you discover who you are!
Agreement is a powerful thing. You must make sure you are agreeing with what God has said about you.
We are defined by others thoughts and words spoken over us. Today let all those negative words be replaced by the loving thoughts of your Father.
You were created to reflect the glory of the Lord in the earth!
You see, people are going to try to define you by the things around you.
There’s nothing wrong with noticing your negative external circumstances, but then look at somewhere else. Don’t obsess about it. Your God is bigger than your circumstances. Don’t fixate on them.
Change is a constant in the equation of life. New realities emerge every day.
A sound self-image is an image that has nothing to do with your success, failure, or circumstances.
Had the devil succeeded in altering the way Jesus saw Himself, he would have instantly distorted the self-image of Christ, and then taken control of the destiny of Jesus. Jesus did not fall for the trick.
Not surprisingly, Jesus did not allow his immediate and temporary circumstances to affect how He saw Himself. He knew that appearances don’t last. Circumstances are never permanent.
My mum made me feel as though I was the only perfect child. In fact, she kept saying that if every child was like me, then she would have had twenty children!
It might interest you to know that your circumstances are powerful psychological reflectors. The things that go on around you can paint a picture of who you apparently are.
No matter how old you are, the words of your parents to you in your childhood will continue to play back in your mind. They invariably contribute to forming your self-image.
You accept certain things about yourself based on what the mirror has shown you through the years. Your self-image is based on reflections from different reflectors.
If he could get Jesus to doubt His Sonship, Satan would then replace that self-image with a distorted version that would allow him to sabotage the mission of Christ.
