Unshakeable, Unbreakable In Christ

Some days, as Christians, can be very challenging. Yesterday was one of those days for me. I realized I was fighting a spiritual battle and it was not easy, but with prayer and even repentance, God saw me through.

“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” Ephesians 6:12

We don't have to be afraid of spiritual battles, but we do need to be on our guard. For that we need God, who is our help, our strength, and One we can go to for the truth.

Truth, because we cannot be listening to the lies of the devil, but find freedom in the truths of God. His truths always sets us free.

To get back on our spiritual track, God's Word reminds us that:

1. We need to embrace the unshakable truth of who we really are in Christ, so we can live a more empowered, peaceful, and purposeful life.

2. What you believe about yourself will shape your whole life… for better or worse.

3. Your self image and identity in Christ, will impact your relationships, your decisions, and determine whether you have the inner strength and resilience to overcome life's challenges.

Remember who you are in Christ:

Embrace your uniqueness: God designed you for a specific purpose that only you can fulfill.

"For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. Plans to help you, not hurt you; plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

Renew your mind: Replace negative thoughts with God’s truth, to transform your mind and heart.

"Think about the things of heaven, not the things of earth. For you died to this life, and your real life is with Christ." – Colossians 3:2-3

Boost your confidence: Understand your true worth and identity, empowering you to overcome life’s challenges.

"Through faith in Christ, we are adopted into God's family (Ephesians 1:5) and given a new identity as a child of God." (John 1:12-13).

Therefore, when we put our faith in Jesus, we become a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17). It is by God’s love and grace, that he has restored our identity, and made us new!

Build your resilience to withstand trials by grounding your worth in God’s love.

“I have told you these things, so that in Me, you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

Gain a deep sense of peace through the promises in God’s Word.

Hebrews 10:23 - "He Who promised is reliable and faithful to His word."

God is faithful. He is full of integrity. We can count on every word He says. He doesn’t say one thing and do another. What He says, He does! He is not “like the world.”

Who does God say you are?

Regardless of what others say or do, He says we are His beloved. He says we are cherished for who we are in His eyes, not because of something we've done or not done. We are precious in His sight, one-of-a-kind, created for a unique purpose.
