Born to Thrive
Psalm 139:143-14 For you formed my inward parts; you covered
me in my mother’s womb. I will praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully
made;
Growing up, our house was always full,
with cousins, friends, uncles, aunties, 9siblings basically we were an extended
family. I was inward focused, very reserved, introverted and hated crowds. As a
young girl I was lost and lonely, rarely played and always found myself living
under other people’s spot light.
One of those days I landed on this verse!!!!!!!!! My frame was not hidden from God when I was
made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. He
says His eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. Shaped my delicate inside
and my intricate outside and wove them all together in my mother’s womb. All
the days of my life which I didn’t know about were all written in his book.
With this knowledge the choice is mine to walk with my head
up high. My past no longer matters, what matters right now is that the most
High is on my side. He saw substance in me being yet unformed. He knows me by
name and holds me in high esteem.
He saw who He created
you to be before you became you.
For you, O lord, will bless the righteous. With favor you
will surround him as with a shield. This is one of the promises we should always
remind ourselves about. As a Christian you should
be confident that you are highly favored and this should be your expectation in
every space you step. So when faced with scares of rejection, declare that you
are surrounded by God’s shield of love. So no need to fear, no need to worry,
no need to carry around a cast down soul. Let’s hope in God and be assured that
God rescues us from every hidden trap of the enemy, from false accusations and
every mountain that seems to want to exalt itself.
God is your glory and the one who lifts up your head. Do not
rely on your circumstances, your environment, job, career, friends, family, and
experiences to define how you will carry yourself. The doctor’s report will not
determine your status. Shame has no
entrance in your life, it doesn’t matter what my bank account says or what I
have done or not done. What matters right now is that the King of Kings is my
Glory, therefore I live knowing I’m pleasant and magnificent, a royal
Priesthood a Holy Nation God’s special person.
