The WORDS came flowing from my mind to my heart.
WORDS that were not from my own thinking,
because I was not thinking about them.
You know what I am talking about,
when you KNOW that GOD has WORDS for you
because they are not coming from you.
They are like an arrow shooting through your body
without an explanation,
except that
it is GOD!
God dropped WORDS
into my being, that I so needed to hear,
because it was a message that HE has been trying to get me
to not only HEAR,
but to BELIEVE FULLY.
WORDS that set me FREE from the roller coaster
of living between
BELIEVING and DOUBTING
who JESUS says I am.
Living in the middle is not living.
It is just surviving.
I have moved from surviving to thriving,
as I
TRULY INGESTED THE SPOKEN TRUTH
of
WHO I AM IN CHRIST!
I finally can speak TRUTH back
to all the LIES in my head
that tell me
I AM NOT GOOD ENOUGH,
because
so many have either told me that
or have treated me as such.
LIVING AS NOT GOOD ENOUGH
is LIVING A LIE.
For JESUS IS REAL AND SO ARE YOU.
Who DIES for someone who is
NOT GOOD ENOUGH to die for?
Why would JESUS RISK HIS LIFE for a
NOT GOOD ENOUGH?
Do you BELIEVE that the you IN CHRIST is
not only
GOOD ENOUGH,
but MORE THAN GOOD ENOUGH.
A GOOD ENOUGH
that is not based on
PERFECT PERFORMANCE
or
PERFECT APPEARANCE
or
PERFECT SUCCESS.
There is NOTHING
you or I can do
to achieve the
PERFECT STATUS
that others may place on you or I,
or the pressure you place on yourself to achieve.
No man or woman is PERFECT.
No child is PERFECT.
All are born with the sin nature of Adam.
We did nothing to inherit Adam's DNA ,except to be born.
And we did nothing and can do nothing
PERECT ENOUGH
to RECEIVE the PERFECT DNA of JESUS.
Actually, there is ONE PERFECT thing
that you can do,
and that is to
RECEIVE JESUS as your SAVIOR.
From Sinner to SAVIOR.
CASE CLOSED.
So the words that fell from heaven into my heart were,
"I AM NOT WHO 'YOU' SAY I AM".
And the "YOU" in the above statement represents
"the me"
who believes the WORDS I tell myself that makes me
NOT GOOD ENOUGH,
and the "you"
also represents the "yous" in my life who don't know the REAL ME,
as they BELIEVE WORDS about me that are untrue.
Am I claiming that I am PERFECT?
Oh not all, far from it.
But
the REAL IMPERFECT ME
is covered by the
PERFECTION OF CHRIST.
So I stand here
(well actually I am sitting, but my heart is standing),
in the TRUTH from the mouth of the GREAT SINNER SAUL,
after HE was GRACED BY THE TRANSFORMING LOVE OF JESUS
and became PAUL~
"Here’s a word you can take to heart and depend on:
JESUS CHRIST came into the world to save sinners.
I’m proof~Public Sinner Number One—
of someone who could never have made it apart from sheer mercy"
(I Timothy 1:15).
Are you living on the teeter totter of
NOT GOOD ENOUGH and GOOD ENOUGH?
Will you BOLDLY BELIEVE
who JESUS says you are,
so that you
LIVE BOLDLY
without
anger,
bitterness,
envy,
anxiety,
fear,
frustration,
and
condemnation.
Because LIVING IN CHRIST,
sets you FREE to SOAR above
IN HIS AMAZING GRACE.
Once again JESUS knocked on the door of my heart,
because HE wanted me to
FULLY BELIEVE HIS WORDS
about
WHO I AM IN HIM.
Wow.
JESUS never gives up on you or I,
as it is you and I who give up on HIM
when we are IN doubt.
Therefore,
since JESUS IS REAL AND SO ARE YOU,
LIVE as IF JESUS IS REAL IN YOUR LIFE,
because there is
nothing more
REAL
than HIS REAL THRUTH
that sets everyone free.
For I was dramatically changed this morning,
as GOD drew me closer into the bosom of HIS HEART
with the WORDS
"I AM NOT WHO 'YOU' SAY I AM"
because "I AM WHO 'YOU' ([GOD} SAY I AM".
RECEIVE and BELIEVE!
"I FOUND MY FREEDOM" *
and I hope you do too!
