10 Truths God Says About His Children

How do you view yourself? Your perception of who you are affects your attitudes, thoughts, and actions around others. The greatest factor in how you view yourself is your perception of what the most important person in your life thinks of you.

That person’s perception of you can be faulty, of course, but that doesn’t immediately change your response to their words. The only way to let truth liberate you from lies that can cripple you is to embrace God as the most important Person in your life and listen to Him. He knows the truth. He created you.

Will you let Him speak truth to your spirit? Here are truths about you He declares in the Scriptures:

1. “I accept you” (Romans 15:7).
2. “You are a precious person to Me and I am continually thinking about you” (Psalm 139:17–18).
3. “I’m continually devoted to you and will provide all that you need to fulfill My purpose for you” (Romans 8:31–32, 38–39).
4. “I’ve adopted you into My family and will take care of you, lead you, discipline you, and develop you as your Father” (Galatians 4:5–6).
5. “I’ll live in you, and you’ll never have to be alone as My Son, Jesus Christ, had to be when He died on the cross for you” (Galatians 2:20; Hebrews 13:5b).
6. “I have a wonderful future for you, that you will know joy and satisfaction for all eternity” (Romans 8:18).
7. “I have a unique plan of good works for you to accomplish” (Ephesians 2:10).
8. “My plan is unique for you because no one else has your exact physical features, upbringing, talents, and abilities, and even your unique weaknesses” (Psalm 139:13–16).
9. “I’ll continue to work in you because My glory is at stake” (Philippians 2:13; Psalm 23:3).
10. “I’ll make you into a most attractive person in My eyes and allow you to fulfill My plan as you present your life to Me” (Romans 8:29; 12:1–2).

Let these truths from God uproot any lies that challenge His liberating truth. Use the shield of faith to knock down the lies that are thrown at you day by day.
