Extended Victory預覽
God still uses you
Do you know these thoughts: I failed again, I'll never be a good Christian, God can't use me, I’m a failure, God can't love me, I'm too weak...
All lies! Lies want to and will destroy your life - if you let them.
That is not the plan God has for you. Let's replace the lies with the truth and love of God:
The Apostle Paul writes in the 2nd letter to the Corinthians: But he said to me, “My grace is suffi-cient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. “ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” (2 Corinthians 12:9-10, NIV)
In the letter to the Romans, it says: For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:3-39, NIV)
You think you are a sinner? Welcome to the club! This is not a lie, this is the truth, and this is why Jesus, the Son of God came into this world: On hearing this, Jesus said to them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” (Mark 2:17, NIV).
John writes: If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteous-ness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word is not in us. (1 John 1:8-10, NIV).
Ok, these are just a few out of many Bible passages that I have spelled out for you. They are the path to true understanding of yourself and the truth will set you free (John 8:32, NIV).
No matter how small and unworthy you think you are, God wants to use you. You are part of His plan, that's why He called you and He will give you what you need to serve Him - don't wor-ry about that.
Next Step: Replace the lies in your life with God's truth - read the Bible regularly, share with a group of brothers and/or sisters in the Lord. Confess your sins and receive forgiveness, by your-self and also in the fellowship of your church.
