Believing the lies can come easily at times, but I need to exercise my spiritual muscles in the Truth. Here is the tip of the iceberg:
God is bigger than my shortcomings
God loves me enough to have sent His Son to die for me (Matt 1:21, John 3:16)
People will fail me, but God will never fail me
God will never give me more than I can handle
I need not fear the future because God has it in control (1 Peter 3:12-14)
God has not left me comfortless (John 14:18)
The joy of the Lord is my strength (Nehemiah 8:10)
If I trust in the Lord, He will direct my steps (Proverbs 3:5-6)
If I repent, He will forgive (Luke 13:3-5)
There is rightful and wrongful suffering on this earth (1 Peter 2:20, Psalm 34:19)
Emotions will often lead me astray
I need to give up control so that God can be in control
Lord, please help me to continually ingest your Truth to crowd out the lies that try to entangle me. You are the only One that can change me on the inside so that I can be who you want me to be. I will lift mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help...
I'm already feeling stronger :)
