YOU ARE MORE THAN YOUR THOUGHTS

“I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.”  Psalms 139:14

“So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.”  Gen 1:27-28 

Get rid of the low self-image in your heart and mind. You are more than your thoughts.

There is no imperfection in our God and there will never be any in all things that He made. All of His works, actions and words are absolutely perfect.  The decision to make you was taken by God and He personally implemented it in His perfection.  You were made in the very perfect image and likeness of the living God; He did not just stop there, He blessed you thereafter and gave you authority to have dominion.

We need to realize who we are in the presence of God (His image and likeness, the very best of all creations), we need to realize the beauty in us (spotless, because God is spotless and very perfect), we need to realize and use what had been freely given to us (authority to have dominion).  If our mind thinks otherwise, we have rubbed ourselves of our true values and potentials.  God has not changed His thoughts or words concerning you.

Many people are emotionally driven such that daily circumstances and surroundings (good or adverse) now define who they are rather than the word of God.  God has not diminished the power in His word despite the wickedness of the devil.  There is power and authority in every word of God we meditate on and speak.  We have to get rid of every uncomfortable imagination that wants to make us inferior to what God had said about us and given to us.  You have to remind yourself daily that you are the best of God’s creation.  

There are great potentials in you despite your adversities, there is great power in you despite your weakness, and there are great ideas in you despite your lacks.  Don’t neglect yourself to the works of the devil; keep on standing on the word of God for you. You have to learn to appreciate your God, appreciate yourself, and appreciate the opportunities you have daily. 

If you fail to appreciate yourself, you will not be able to discover your full potentials and you will never use them.  You will only benefit in what you know and use.  Never look down on yourself, appreciate yourself, appreciate your God, appreciate others, soon the doors will open for others to see your beauty and potentials and also appreciate you.  If you do not appreciate what you have, you will not be able to fully derive its benefits. You are as valuable, beautiful, accommodating, and talented as others and deserve being appropriately appreciated.

You were made by the most excellent and most intelligent God, perfectly design and empowered to do great things.  God gave an excellent remark about you after creation; “Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good.” Genesis 1:31

David said He is fearfully, wonderfully and marvelously made; so are you.  Neglect not the gift that is in you.
