The Excellent Understand Their Present Perspective Is An Expression Of Their Self?image.

Numbers 13:33

“There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight.”


Let me ask you what is more important: how others see you, how you see yourself, or how God sees you? At first guess you may say, how God sees me, of course! Although how God views us is important, it doesn’t override the inner image we have of ourselves. Let me clarify. While you were living in sin, distant from God, did God view you any different than He does right now? Not at all. His Word is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Psalms says, “How precious also are your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them.” God has always thought only good about you.

In His eyes you are righteous. You are pure, holy, and just. But how do you see yourself? Do you see yourself as righteous, holy, pure, and just? Or do you see yourself unworthy and undeserving of God’s grace and His mercy? Do you like yourself? Do you see yourself victorious? Solomon said it like this, “As a man thinks in his heart, so he will be.” How God thinks about you is not the issue; the issue is how you think about you. Begin today to implant God’s thoughts into your internal hard drive and cultivate the self-image of Christ Himself.
