Bible reading: Lamentations 3:19-27.
Memory Verse: “For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.” 1 Peter 1:18-19.
Lie No 2: Your net worth determines your overall worth.
The world can lie to us by saying that our bank accounts and net worth determines how much we truly worth. According to Gift Economy, 23.6 percent of the deaths amongst the wealthy from 2008 to 2010 was caused by suicide. People who base their worth on their wealth are blind because only the Blood of Christ is capable of determining how much you are worth.
Lie No 3: Your failure affects your self- worth.
When we fail, we can feel worthless compared to when we were successful. That is far from the truth. Even when man fails and misses the mark, God loves us and makes a way to build us up. In fact, it is His grace that makes us successful and not our own works, and even when we fail, God never fails. Failure is never final. It is a learning curve in the agenda of God for His children.
Lie No 4: Your sin has destroyed your identity.
Some people get caught up in their past and others are haunted by the struggles they presently face. Their numerous sins have degraded their identity. And, yes, sin can be destructive and it does have the power to steal and destroy our worth and even our lives, but God gives life. The Blood of Jesus has been made a propitiation for all our sins. Nevertheless, we are to sin no more (1 John 4:10). The second Book of Corinthians 5:17 (NIV) tells us, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here.”
Quote: Choose to think, talk & act the way Christ instructs.
Prophetic Word: May the Holy Ghost energize your inner man and give you a new mental picture, in Jesus name.
