I want to encourage people to start seeing themselves
through the eyes of Christ. I want this generation to start a revolution
founded on truth. We are so often crippled by and covered in our own
insecurities and the lies of Satan. The lies he so cleverly whispers into our
ear about who we are. We walk through different seasons throughout our
lifetime… sometimes with confidence as we can see a glimpse of how Jesus sees
us; while in other seasons we muddle through and all we can hear is Satan
whispering, sometimes it is as if he is screaming completely drowning out the
truth. The lies penetrate our lives, you
are not enough, you are unforgiveable, you are ugly, untalented, unwanted,
insignificant, things that are just unimaginable, things that Jesus never says
of us. He says that you are chosen, that you are loved, accepted, desired, His,
that you are created in His image.
And so whether it be the season of singleness, or a loss of a job, a disagreement
with a loved one, being bullied in school, or whatever that season is that
makes those lies so real, I would just encourage you. I would encourage you to
dig into the word, to dig into scripture and allow yourself to be wrapped into
the arms of Jesus and hear what He is whispering in your ear. To hear what He
is saying to your face as he embraces you, and hear who He sees you as. If we
begin to see ourselves as Jesus sees us, we can change this world because we
will have a confidence that only Jesus can give us. We will have a boldness
that can speak the truth into others. We will be covered by His love as we
begin to live our lives as His hands and feet. So my prayer is that we would
begin to walk as the children of God that Jesus knows us as, rather than
walking as a person defined by Satan. So let us look through the eyes of
Christ, and see who He created us to be. So let us see with the eyes of Jesus
and begin to live the life He has called us to live. Let us start this
revolution founded on truth.
