“For as he thinks in his heart, so is he…” Proverbs 23:7
We are what we we think we are. We are what we believe ourselves to be. We are what we believe in our hearts. Our perception of who we are is our reality and what we project to others.
It is very important that as Followers of Christ that we project the love of Christ at all times and in every situation. There is no better way to share the Good News of Christ than by how we live our lives and how we view ourselves. Please do not perceive my words as “worldly vanity” consisting of make-up, fancy clothes, living in large homes and driving fancy cars, but living our lives knowing the truth in who we are and Who we belong to.
That is why I truly believe that positive affirmations that are scripturally based are important to be spoken by us and over us each day of our lives. They can serve as a reminder as to who we are in Christ, and Who we belong to and the power that comes with knowing the Truth. Also, it puts the enemy on notice that we know our identity in Christ which makes it difficult for the enemy to be able to lie to us about our identity, rob us of our peace, and create confusion. The enemy knows that he can be successful at disempowering Christ followers by getting them to be unknowlegedable about their identity in Christ. Why do you think the enemy works so hard at keeping us from reading God’s Word…if we don’t know what God’s Word says about us, then we are subjected to fall prey to the enemy’s lies about who we are and Who we belong to.
I believe the saying that “anything that you do consistently for at least 21 days will turn into a habit”. I know for me and for my children, it is very important and crucial that everyday we speak scripture based positive affirmations over our lives. I found this list of scripture based affirmations on-line and made it a part of our morning prayer time…I am sharing in love in hopes that you will make it a part of your daily prayer time and share with others for the next 21 days.
I declare in the Name of Jesus Christ that:
I AM a child of God, and I have a Kingdom inheritance today
I AM seated with Christ in the heavenly places
I AM free from all fear, all anxiety, all panic, and all confusion
I AM free from all sickness, all disease, all injuries, all illnesses, and all infirmities
I AM healed through the Name of Jesus Christ Who I serve
I AM at peace in my body, in my soul, and in my spirit
I AM a citizen of Heaven
I AM the head and not the tail
I AM victorious
I AM prosperous in my soul, in my finances, and in all that I have!
Here’s a little tip that I use to make sure that we do not forget to say these affirmations. I place it on the mirror in the bathrooms and on the refrigerator door. My suggestions would also be to place in the areas of our home where you and your family frequent the most.
In closing, if you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior ( to be saved) and you would like to, please say this verse out loud and believe it in your heart and you will be saved..
“…If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved”…Romans 10:9
If you said that scripture out loud and believed in heart, you are saved and the angels in heaven are rejoicing and God has written your name in the Lambs Book of Life never to be blotted out. TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!!
Thank you for stopping by and go with Christ today!
Sharing in God’s Love
