Who I Am - identity veeses

 The following is something I’ve been reading out loud at the start of each day to combat the enemy’s lies (I encourage any Christian to do the same!):


————————


I renounce the lie that I am rejected, unloved, or shameful. In Christ I am accepted.


God says:

* I am God's child (see John 1:12)

* I am Christ's friend (see John 15:15)

* I have been justified (see Romans 5:1)

* I am united with the Lord, and I am one spirit with Him (see 1 Corinthians 6:17)

* I have been bought with a price: I belong to God. (see 1 Corinthians 6:19-20)

* I am a member of Christ's Body (see 1 Corinthians 12:27)

* I am a saint, a holy one (see Ephesians 1:1)

* I have been adopted as God's child (see Ephesians 1:5)

* I have direct access to God through the Holy Spirit (see Ephesians 2:18)

* I have been forgiven of all my sins (see Colossians 1:14)

* I am complete in Christ (see Colossians 2:10)


———————————


I renounce the lie that I am guilty, unprotected, alone, or abandoned. In Christ I am secure.


God says:

* I am free from condemnation (see Romans 8:1-2)

* I am assured that all things work together for good (see Romans 8:28)

* I am free from all condemning charges against me (see Romans 8:31-34)

* I cannot be separated from the love of God (see Romans 8:35-39)

* I have been established, anointed and sealed by God (see 2 Corinthians 1:21-22)

* I am confident that the good work God has begun in me will be perfected (see Philippians 1:6)

* I am a citizen of heaven (see Philippians 3:20)

* I am hidden with Christ in God (see Colossians 3:3)

* I have not been given a spirit of fear, but of power, love and self-control (see 2 Timothy 1:7)

* I can find grace and mercy to help in time of need (see Hebrews 4:16)

* I am born of God and the evil one cannot touch me (see 1 John 5:18)


———————————


I renounce the lie that I am worthless, inadequate, helpless, or hopeless. In Christ I am significant.


God says:

* I am the salt of the earth and the light of the world (see Matthew 5:13-14)

* I am a branch of the true vine, Jesus, a channel of His life (see John 15:1-5)

* I have been chosen and appointed by God to bear fruit (see John 15:16)

* I am a personal, Spirit-empowered witness of Christ (see Acts 1:8)

* I am a temple of God (see 1 Corinthians 3:16)

* I am a minister of reconciliation for God (see 2 Corinthians 5:17-21)

* I am a fellow worker with God (see 2 Corinthians 6:1)

* I am seated with Christ in the heavenly realms (see Ephesians 2:6)

* I am God's workmanship, created for good works (see Ephesians 2:10)

* I may approach God with freedom and confidence (see Ephesians 3:12)

* I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me! (see Philippians 4:13)

* I am not the great "I Am", but by the grace of God I am what I am (see Exodus 3:14; John 8:24, 28, 58; 1 Corinthians 15:10)

 Do you find it hard to describe yourself as a clay pot?  I used to believe in the statement: “When life gets tough, the tough get tougher!’...
