COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’ll be 50 this year and in true transparency I have been a bad man. I, like many, have made bad choices, done bad things and have regrets. The bad thing about that is I have let what I think about myself keep me from being all that God created me to be.
I have been reading a book by Pastor Steven Furtick called (Un)Qualified and it is changing how I see myself and more importantly what I say about myself. Get the book and read it, but the bottom line so far is that when God called Moses to save His children Moses didn’t feel qualified and spoke ill of himself. However, when He asked “Whom shall I say sent me?” The Lord responded “I Am.”  In other words, “You can do this because, I AM.” Think about how often we say, “I am____” it may be I am Cavalier, I am Dad, I am cold, I am weak, I am ashamed, I am redeemed… on and on.
The point is, the Lord is the “I am” but it is the 3rd word we say that defines us, shapes what we believe about ourselves, holds us back or leads us on. I have been telling myself for many years “I am ashamed. I am unable. I am fake. I am bad. Etc” but God is saying, “No Cavalier. I Am…your everything” He says, I am forgiven. I am free. I am redeemed. I am chosen. I am able. I am His!
I like His 3rd words about me A LOT better than what I’ve been saying about myself for soooo many years.
PAX, what’s your 3rd word? Is it what God says you are? Is it who He says you are?
If not, it’s time that changes.
MOLESKIN:
Pray for Tapout’s Brother-in-law and sister-in-law as they recently started their child of 11 months. Terrible situation but they are looking for God’s grace in it and believe He had a purpose and a plan. Even so times ahead may be tough so remember them in your prayers.
