Knowing "yourself'' in HIM💗💗

ARE YOU STRUGGLING TO KNOW YOUR IDENTITY?

Knowing yourself is the key to know GOD!Until and unless you know your worth you cannot know who truly God is. And with the biblical and practical understanding of your self you will be better equipped to live your life to the glory of God.Most of us struggle in this area, as we grow up we look for validations from the world, we seek acceptance and in the process of matching the worldy standards we lose ourself.We often forget our true identity, as the lens of the world that we borrow to look from focuses more on the criterion validity set by the world. Know what bible says about you " But you are not like that, for you are chosen people.You are royal priests, a holy nation, God's very own possession.As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light."1peter2:9 wow! Thats an awakening verse isn't it?So all you need to do is return back the borrowed lances and put on God's magnificent glasses👀.

Watch out! The language of the world is contradictory to God. Even I have had lots of inferior complexities, and I struggled a lot to overcome it, and I would say this struggle is as real as any other struggle, and at times I felt I was not good enough and was of no use. I was bombarded with all such thoughts that made me overwhelmed with sadness, and it was all because of the choice I made as I grow up, the choice of making the world my mirror, and lately I realised the mirror that I picked was crooked. Although when I initiated making my creator my mirror, roles were reversed and since then, again and again I am being reminded by the holy spirit of my worth, that I was fearfully and wonderfully made(psalms13:14), God took handful of time to create me and I was created in his own image and likeness (gen-1:26), and this changed everything.

There is an episode in the bible where peter, one of the Jesus'disciples saw him walking on water and asked Jesus to let him walk along, and when Jesus said "come," He began walking on water. I always use to think what was this episode all about( matthew 14 :22-33).Why did Jesus walk on water?Okay, because He was God but why did peter walked? He was just a man like me and you, but then the revelation came to me that through this episode actually God wanted to show what humans can do, so there is absolutely nothing we cannot do. He has created us in such a powerfull design. He chose, ordained and called us before the creation of the world, the first thought that he had was you and me when he thought of creating the universe. And even when we felt short of his glory, he laid his life and redeemed us. That is how precious you are in his sight, he loved you at your darkest.You were chosen before you were created in your mothers' womb(Jeremiah 1:5) and you have been sent on earth with a divine purpose. You are not just here to make a change but to be a change, You are best ofwhat God created. The body that you carry is designed by God ,the soul that is in you is desired by God. So do not dwell on your short-comings and do not dwell on your faults. Why should you dwell on negativity and limitation when God doesn't mind your imperfections? Instead, dwell upon your innate perfection. Contemplate the part of you made in the image & likeness of God,and claim your bright-right. For when you know yourself as God's child you become empowered.With all you have inside so today make it your purpose to know yourself.For within you is hidden the treasure of treasures.💖

Your identity is in Christ!
