Single, Ready To Mingleनमूना

Identity, or self-image, is how you see yourself. Self-image is like a chain; it limits how far you can go. Like a wild dog on a leash that can’t go further than the chain allows him, so is low self-esteem; it limits a person’s potential. It affects their perspective and, many times, hinders them from being used by God. Insecure people often look to marriage to heal their inferiority complex. Romantic relationships are their last hope to cure their low self-esteem. No matter how much love, gifts, and attention you give them it’s never enough. Your identity must be anchored in God before getting into marriage. God revealed who Adam was before Eve showed up on the scene. God formed Adam. Unlike all other creation which God created by speaking into existence, God was physically involved in creating Adam from the dust. So also, God formed you. You were created from the touch of God; therefore, it is His touch that you will always crave. His presence becomes your hiding place. There will always be a deep longing in your heart for God’s touch, because He formed you with His hands. God created Adam in His image and likeness. Man bears the imprint of God. That’s why the devil hates you, because you remind him of God. When God made vegetation and animals, He made them all “after it’s/their kind,” the phrase occurs ten times in Genesis 1:11-25. When He created Adam, He made him after the God-kind. Stop determining your worth from how many likes your images on social media get. You carry the image of God in you; therefore, your value is set by Him. God blessed Adam and said he was good. Blessing is empowerment for expansion. It’s more than stuff; it’s power to increase. Just like God blessed Adam, when you discover your identity, you will realize it's already blessed by God. In your identity, you are blessed, not cursed. It means you are empowered to grow and expand. God saw all that He had made and said that it was very good. You need to hear that personally, right now, from God…you are VERY GOOD! God did not make a mistake creating you the way you are. You are His masterpiece, fearfully and wonderfully made. You are God’s best creation. He delights in you. If this is not enough to blow low self-esteem out of the water, then nothing will ever be enough to remove insecurity. Renew your mind today. Receive what God says about you - the truth will set you free. Everything else you see and feel are simply facts. Remember that facts change, but the truth is eternal.
