Why do I find myself in the place that constant negativity around me rubs off, and causes me to lose my confidence? Some days I am able to stand, and fight and beat it, but others, it catches me unawares - like a sideways rugby tackle, and it knocks me off my feet-it is a struggle just to get up again.
I know that The Greater One lives in me. I know that I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me. I know that God has NOT given me a spirit of fear, but a Spirit of Love, Power and of a Sound and Disciplined mind.... but
sometimes I forget! And those are the times I find it hard to stand.
Things I am trying to remember:
God Loves me and what He says about me is true.
Because I Love God, I place His opinion/Word about me above the word/opinions of those around me (or even my own word/opinion) - and when I let the words of others affect me, I am in fact placing them above God... ouch!
Because God Loves me, and knows the plans He has for me - to bless me and prosper me, to give me a future and a hope - and is NOT trying to "get" me, or punish me - I can rest in this knowledge!
Jesus Christ took not only my sins and punishment on HImself, but every single curse that I deserve on me - He carried them all, paid the full price and said Himself: It is Finished!!
There is no more punishment for me (He was punished)
There are no more curses for me (He became cursed in my place when he hung on the tree)
There is no more rejection for me (He was rejected in my place, so that I can be accepted in the Beloved).
There you have it. This is the inheritance of the saints!
God decided. It was God's plan from the beginning.
The Blood of Jesus is Enough. It paid in Full.
So I am blessed with the blessings of Abraham!
I am the head and not the tail!
No matter what you or anyone else say - this is my reality, this is my truth, this is who I am.
I am His. And He is mine.
