What Are You Listening To?

Critical self-evaluation. Our Enemy's accusation. Others' critical speculation. God's Word about our justification.

There should only be one of these we listen to and agree with. The only measuring stick is God's Word. He said we are justified through faith through His Son, Jesus Christ. He said our sins are covered. He said we are His kids...a royal priesthood. He said we are His workmanship. He said He has a plan, a future, and a hope for us. He said we are more than conquerors. He said we can come boldly to His throne of grace.........oh ya! GRACE! That's something we forget to tell ourselves in our evaluation. That's something other's forget to mention in their speculation. That's something the enemy doesn't include in his accusation. God's GRACE.....greater than all our sin! "Where sin does abound, GRACE does much more abound." It's not about deserving His grace. It's His gift just because He loves us. You can't earn it. His grace just abounds...whether we believe it or not...His grace abounds toward us.

We have to stop beating ourselves up. We have to stop wasting time. We have to stop walking in agreement with our Enemy. We have to stop thinking on critical self-evaluation, our enemy's accusations, other's speculation and start thinking about what God says about our justification. As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. So think on whatsoever things that are pure, just, and of good report.....His Word about us is the "good report".
