How often do the little lies come to you? Maybe you feel like you’re not worth enough. Perhaps thoughts that you haven’t done enough or just that God is mad at you for some reason. Those thoughts come at times and we all struggle with them from time to time.
The goal is when you have any thought of any kind that is contrary to what the Bible says is to recognize it for what it is. It’s a lie. And know that even though your emotions might not line up right away, replace that lie with God’s truth.
Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. – Colossians 3:2-3 (NIV)
In today’s verse, we’re challenged to put our minds on things above. So when those lies come that tell us we’re not enough or get us to question God’s word, we just determine to not spend time thinking about those things.
Instead, begin to replace those with God’s truth. This is because of what Jesus did, sin no longer has any hold on you. And walk then in the freedom Jesus provided you. Walk free from fear, condemnation, and any other thing that would cause you to doubt your worth or value to God.
