No Confidence in the flesh
Okay, so over the past fewweeks I have been lacking confidence. You name it and i'm insecure about SO many different things. As I was questioning why I was lacking confidence in myself. The Spirit prompted me to the Word of God which is living and active and sharper than any double edged sword. Trying to come back to the place that I know I can be myself and be volurnable. As a piece of paper fell out of my bible that we went over and talked about during Community Groups this semester. I began to look at it and the Lord has restored my confidence. It's only placed in Him. I boast about nothing except the Cross of Christ, because He's ALL i've got anyway!!
Here are a few things that as a child of God the Creator of the universe that I know I can rest in and find Confidence in:
In Christ::
Purpose: to glorify God by allowing Jesus Christ to express his life in and through mine.
John 15, Galatians 2, Philippians 2, Romans 5-8, Isaiah 43:7
Identity:
Saint- Ephesians 1:1
Slave to Righteousness- Romans 6:18
Child of God-John 1:12, Romans 8:16
Chosen, Holy, and Blameless-Ephesians 1:4-10
Spiritual Sphere:
Kingdom of God-Colossians 1:13-14
Citizen of Heaven-Philippians 3:20
How I Operate:
Walk according to the Spirit-Galatians 5:16
Look to God to meet my needs-Philippians 4:19
My Future:
life, victory in life, eternity with God in Heaven-John 5:24
In Relation to God:
One with Him-1 Corinthians 6:17
Friend with God John 15:15
Reconciled-Romans 5:19, 2Corinthians 5:18-19
Expression of Christ's life-Colossians 3:4
Enjoy fellowship with Him-1 John 1:3
Brought near to God-Ephesians 2:13
My Life is hidden with Christ-Colossians 3:3
Bold and Confident Access-Hebrews 10:19
Reality of my state:
Justified and Redeemed-Ephesians 1:7
No longer subject to condemnation-Romans 8:1
Free from law of sin and death-Romans 8:2
Always led in triumph-2 Corinthians 5:21
Liberated-Galatians 2:4
Righteousness of God-2 Corinthians 5:21
Blessed with every spiritual blessing- Ephesians 1:3
Obtained an inheritance-Hebrews 9:15
Sealed with the Spirit-Ephesians 1:13
Prepared to do good works-Ephesians 2:10
Working out salvations with God's power to will and do-Philippians 2:12-13
"The Temple I am going to build will be great, because our God is greater than all other gods. But who is able to build a temple for him, since the heavens, even the highest heavens, cannot contain him? Who then am I to build a temple for him, except as place to burn sacrifices before him?" 2 Chronicles 2:5-6
Read this and was at a loss for words. Because in fact that my God is so much greater than all other gods.
He Alone is Worthy! He Alone is Worthy! He Alone is Worhty!
