CHRISTIAN’S SELF-ESTEEM AND CONFIDENCE

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

Then Adonai put out his hand and touched my mouth, and Adonai said to me, ‘There! I have put my words in your mouth. Today I have placed you over nations and kingdoms…….’” (Jeremiah 1:9-10).

Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth. And the Lord said to me, Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have this day appointed you to the oversight of the nations and of the kingdoms to root out and pull down, to destroy and to overthrow, to build and to plant.

CHRISTIAN’S SELF-ESTEEM AND CONFIDENCE
Look back with gratitude and forward with confidence. Prophet Isaiah declared: In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength.

Confidence is moving on a firm foundation.
Confidence is a plant of slow growth.
What is self-esteem? Self-esteem is the same as self-respect, faith in oneself, self-assurance or self-regard. What is self-confidence? Self-confidence is the same as aplomb, nerve and poise.

Self-esteem and self-confidence belong to one family and both have the same parents.
A Christian’s self-esteem must be based on God and His infallible word. God’s word has characteristics and our self-esteem must be based on the characteristics of God’s word.

Psalm 19:7-9, declares some of the characteristics of God’s word. God’s word is perfect, converting the soul.
The Testimony Of The Lord Is Sure
God’s word is right.
God’s word is pure.
God’s word is clean.
God’s word is true and righteous.
God’s word is sweeter than honey.

A Christian’s self-confidence must be based on God’s attributes. In Psalm 145:8-11, the attributes of God are as follows:

  • The Lord is gracious
  • Full of compassion
  • Slow to anger
  • Great in mercy
  • Good to all
  • Abundant in love
  • Glorious in holiness
  • Righteous in all His ways

 

Self-esteem and self-confidence is yours in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!

Somebody shout, “PRAISE THE LORD!

Shalom and good morning.
