This is matter of fear and faith. Possibly, life and death! I was recently inspired by my boyfriend to make a list of 3 things I know for certain of God, and 3 things that I
don't. I've found this to be so helpful and I encourage you to do the same! Just make a list of 3 things you definitely
know about God and His character, and then jot down 3 things you are
unsure of. I would suggest you do it now before you read mine. :-)Personally, I think it's important to know the effect of the 3 things that you know for certain, and the 3 things you're unsure of. Knowing these things can help you either, reinforce the truth, or dismantle the lies, and knowing the TRUTH can help you spot lies! Ask yourself, what you must believe in order to do what you want to do and be who you want to be? Then ask yourself, what would happen if you continue to believe those uncertainties in your life? How damaging could they be to your physical and spiritual health?
With this list, I gathered a few verses to affirm whatever I know is true of God. I also got a few scriptures to combat WHATEVER lies I was or am believing, and I also ask myself, "In what ways do I KNOW the lies are lies in my own personal life?" Not just going off of what I may have heard or have been told by others. Believe it or not, God shows me things He has said or done that contradict the lies and He'll show you too! So in your thinking, make sure you take some time to remember what the LORD has done in your life! :^)
Here's my list:
3 Things I know
- God is faithful. Psalm 36:5; Psalm 33:4; Romans 3:3-4; 2Timothy2:13
- God is true & trustworthy. 2Samuel7:28; John 17:3; Proverbs 30:5; Psalm 20:7
- God is patient. 2 Peter 3:9; Psalm 86:15; Romans 2:4; Revelation 2:21
3 Things I'm unsure of
- God's sovereignty. Psalm 103:19; Philippians 1:6; Proverbs 16:33; Proverbs 16:9
- God's love FOR ME. John 3:16; Romans 5:8; 1John3:1; John 15:19-17
- Does God know me? Does He have a plan for me? Jeremiah 29:11-14; Psalm 139:1-4; Jeremiah 1:4-5; Psalm 37:23-24
