Generally, as women, we are faced with many problems. Sometimes we create our own problems. Other times, life hands us problems. Many times, we may allow these problems to escalate to the point that we never hand our problems over to God, but instead attempt to hold onto them until they become lies. Lies in which the enemy torments us and often speaks: condemning, shaming, mean, frightening, and hateful words to us. When we believe the lies and fears from the enemy; that we have nothing to offer, that we will never be forgiven for past mistakes, or whatever lie we tell ourselves, we become paralyzed by the enemy.
We must cling to God’s truth! We can ask the Holy Spirit to give us wisdom to discern what is true, to help us learn to distinguish between God’s words versus the enemies words to ensure that we are listening to the voice of God. “He is faithful and just to forgive us” John 1:9, (NIV). Give all the lies and fears to God! God loves us with an unconditional love. God speaks to us lovingly. His words are kind, convicting, encouraging, and comforting. We don’t need to earn God’s love through our actions, because His love is a gift that has already been given to us at the cross.
