Identity issues

“A cheerful look brings joy to the heart; good news makes for good health.” (Proverbs 15:30 NLT)

When I was younger, I smiled and giggled at every silly thing. But one day, a random stranger commented, “She looks good, but her teeth are jutting out”. My friends, who heard this statement repeated it every time we met and made fun of me.

I was only a teenager at that time, and that statement scarred me. I became conscious of my teeth every time I smiled, talked or laughed. So much so that, I even changed the way I smiled for photographs.

This incident left a deep scar in me.

When I had an encounter with God, I realized that God loved me so much that He was willing to heal me of every visible and invisible scar. I could sense the sweet Holy Spirit nudge me every time I smiled and was reminded of that stranger’s statement, until one day I surrendered that scar to Jesus. He touched me and I was healed.

Not only this, but wonderful Holy spirit reminded me of my identity, I am Royalty!

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light (1 Peter 2:9)

Hey girl, even as you are reading this, let me remind you – You are beautiful inside and outside, any shape or color. In the eyes of God – You are beautiful, You are Royalty!

And know that there is no scar so deep that God can’t heal, no mistake so bad that God can’t forgive, no problem so big that God can’t solve. All that God needs is your surrender.

And know that you don’t have to do this alone, we are with you.

If you are struggling with a similar hurt or scar, we encourage you to write to us at [email protected], and we would love to pray with you.

Your God is a Shame-Breaker!

Your God is a Shame-Breaker!

Shame Breaker
Struggling with shame? Something you did or some incident involving you that brings lot of shame and condemnation to your mind? Months and years have passed yet you can’t seem to get over it? Here are 5 truths from God’s Word, that we pray, will set you free.

1.  His love> Your mistake

There is no wrong you can ever do that can outmatch the love and grace that Jesus offers to cover it. Nothing can separate you from His love! (Rom 8:39)
 

2.  There is hope

God never condemns, He only convicts. For God did not send his Son into the world to
condemn the world (John 3:17). Condemnation brings disgrace, conviction brings hope.
 

3.  Forgive yourself 

Forgive yourself. Your mistakes don’t define you. If God can forgive you, there is no reason for you to withhold that forgiveness from yourself. (1 John 1:9). Also forgive the person that may have caused you the shame.
 

4.  There is no evidence

When you completely surrender your life to Jesus, He offers you a clean slate. His blood justifies and sanctifies you. Sanctified means you are fully washed His blood. There is no evidence left! You are now hidden in Him

 

5.  Let go of your past

Your past is forgiven. Let go! and let go of the people who remind you of your past. Know that God is greater than your past, no matter how bad or unrepairable it looks.

Your God is a shame breaker!

Only 4 women are mentioned in the genealogy of Jesus and all 4 had a shameful past. Rahab – a sex worker, Tamar – an ‘immoral’ woman, Bathsheba – an adulteress, Ruth- A Moabite. But God used these broken vessels and turned their destinies around. When you surrender your life to Him, He can use your brokenness and make it glorious. You serve a God who is a shame breaker!

But the Lord God helps me; therefore I have not been disgraced; therefore I have set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be put to shame. (Isaiah 50:7)

Shh…God has a surprise!

Shh…God has a surprise!

Identity in Christ

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord . “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

I am certain that many may have quoted this scripture from Jeremiah 29:11 to you or maybe you know it by heart.

I myself have stood on this scripture in many circumstances. Until recently, when I was seeking the will of God in a situation, but did not get an answer in a simple “Yes / No” .

The wonderful Holy Spirit then whispered to me, “If you buy a surprise gift for a certain person, would you reveal the content of the gift beforehand?”

From then on I wake up every morning rejoicing and knowing that I may not be able to see my future, but it is definitely not uncertain. I may not know the chronology of events that may follow in my life. But my future is filled with possibilities and hope!

His thoughts are higher!

Dear girl friend, this note is especially for you – Until God your father is on the throne your future is not uncertain. The Bible says in Psalms 97:1

The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice; let the many coastlands be glad!

Another translation says: The LORD is King! Tell the earth to celebrate and all islands to shout. (CEV)

Put your trust in God, His choice and His thoughts are always a better option to choose.

I love the story of Ruth from the Bible, She chose to follow God even though her mother-in-law could not promise her a secure future. That one decision changed her destiny and she was included in the bloodline of King David.

Let me close by reminding you again, God has a plan and a purpose for your life and even as I am writing this, I am praying for you that as you seek God and meditate on His word, He will reveal it to you!

Don’t Give Up On Me

Don’t Give Up On Me

by | Jan 30, 2021 | Christian Walk, Healing & Freedom, Identity & Calling

Identity in Christ

Recently, I was spending my time in prayer, particularly asking the Lord to help me in an area that I have been struggling with for a while. As I was ending my prayer time I said “Thank You Holy Spirit for not giving up on me”. Well, to my surprise, the conversation did not end with that. The moment I finished saying that, I heard the Holy Spirit say in reply, “Don’t give up on Me either”.

And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. ( 2 Cor 3:18 )

God’s job is to transform you

Dear child of God, if there is some (or many) area of your life that you have been struggling with, genuinely desiring a transformation, don’t give up on the Holy Spirit, because He hasn’t given up on you. He’s still in the business of transforming you. Don’t give up on yourself, no matter how many times you have failed. Don’t give those condemning thoughts even one bit of space in your mind.

You and I are “being transformed”. We are in the process. Right now, we might only be able to see our life from a short- sighted view. But we can be at peace knowing that God sees the end from the beginning. That leaves us with no reason to stress out. As we trust Him and take those steps of faith, one at a time, God will take us from glory to glory.

So, shake off that condemnation, cancel that pity party and drop off your anxious thoughts, for He who called you is faithful and He is mighty to save you.

Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will arise; though I sit in darkness, the LORD will be my light. ( Micah 7:8 )

Show the devil his place!

Show the devil his place!

by | Jan 23, 2021 | Christian Walk, Identity & Calling

At home my sister and I have an internal joke where we tease each other saying, “The women of the house must clean, wash and cook and that’s our place”. When one of us have something to do, we scream out ‘Know your place’ (which simply means just do the work what you are supposed to do). Now hold on!! Before you start revolting against me, as I said earlier that’s just a joke – Our place isn’t anything less, but we are all just responsible as sons and daughters of the house.

But the Lord showed me, as we give a person a special place in the house, we Christians tend to give satan a special place in our lives, than we give God.

How you ask? Well…

You entertain his thoughts, his baits, his lies, his deception, his temptations?

Condemning thoughts keep coming in your head?

You devalue yourself?

Are you constantly worrying?

How the devil works?

The devil will bring that bait of your weakness and bring it in your presence and he will say, “C’mon, catch it, it’s your old habit. It’s harmless. Just do it once”.

And once you fall for it, you realise later that you are already in a trap of this ongoing cycle of lies and condemnation.

One day the same happened to me, where the enemy gave me a series of thoughts that were not in line with God’s Word. That’s when God showed me loud and clear, “Hey it’s just a bait. You are not the devil’s fish, but you are a fisher of men’.

And that day, I remember, I said out loud, “Get lost devil with your schemes. Know your place”. And when I did that, I felt so free instantly.

Show the devil his place!

Don’t give the enemy a place in your head. The last time I heard he is the size of the rat and still is. He belongs to the pit of hell and THAT’S HIS PLACE. He has no power. Don’t let him rent space in your mind to make you feel lost, distracted, stuck, weak, overwhelmed, depressed or oppressed.

You are called to oppress and depress the devil. Fight back those feelings. And the best way to do it is by saying God’s Word out loud. Sing praises to God.

Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. (1 John 4:4-‬5 ESV)

The world listens to the devil and his cohorts because they belong here, but we are not of this world since we are now in Christ and so we have authority! You are an overcomer in Christ. You are called to soar!

If you are fighting temptation, distraction, bondages in thought life, depression, weakness, contact us and we will pray for you.
