Feeling unloved or unworthy doesn’t change the truth of who God says you are. 🖤

In Luke 15, we’re reminded that our worth isn’t defined by our failures, our past, rejection, or perfectionism. It’s defined by the Father.

We don’t have to earn God’s love. We don’t have to clean ourselves up first. We don’t have to perform, prove, or punish ourselves to be worthy of His grace. God doesn’t meet us with disappointment; He meets us with compassion. He runs toward us. He restores us. He robes us in honor and calls us His own.

When we live in thoughts of unworthiness, we live in defeat. But when we live in the truth of God’s love, we live in freedom.

You are more loved than you can imagine.

You are not lost; you are called.

You are not unworthy; you are His child. 🤍

People-pleasing may look harmless, but it slowly replaces obedience with approval. In Galatians 1:10, Paul reminds us that we can’t seek the approval of both God and man at the same time.

When our value is tied to being useful, liked, or not disappointing others, it leads to exhaustion, compromise, comparison, and fear. The fear of man becomes a trap, but trust in the Lord brings freedom (Proverbs 29:25).

The cure isn’t trying harder—it’s trusting deeper. Knowing we are fully known and fully loved by God allows us to let go of man’s approval and walk in obedience, even when it costs us.

Less approval. More obedience.

Less fear. More freedom. ✝️🤍

This week’s message reminded us that the greatest battles we face aren’t always external. Often, the battlefield is the mind.

Romans 12:1–2 calls us to resist conforming to the patterns of this world and instead be transformed by the renewing of our minds.

We were challenged to recognize that not every thought deserves agreement, that we are not defined by our strongest thoughts. Through Christ, we can take thoughts captive, identify lies, and replace them with truth. God desires dominion over every area of our lives, including how we think.

When we invite Him into the process, we begin to walk in clarity, freedom, and victory. Proving what is the good, acceptable, and the perfect will of God.

What’s the loudest thought in your head right now? And what does God say about that?

Living free from condemnation!

Romans 8 reminds us that God doesn’t label us by our past—only He gets to name us, and He calls us His. When we stop trying to live in our own strength and surrender our lives and minds to Christ, our focus shifts and our lives start to look different.

The evidence of a changed heart? A life being changed by Jesus. He lives in us, and He’s the one doing the transforming 🤍✨

Romans 7 teaches us that trying harder isn’t what changes us, Jesus does. Wise people hear God’s Word and run toward the only One who can transform them. Let's change the way we change.

We all serve something or someone in this life, but Jesus is the only One you can serve who actually sets you free.

So here’s the real question: Who’s your master? Christ or Satan?

Are you a slave to sin or a servant of righteousness?

Feeling stuck? You’re not alone — but you don’t have to stay there.

Sometimes it’s not clear, we’re not convinced, or we think we can’t change.

But Romans 6 reminds us:

➡️ God’s truth about you is real.

➡️ You’ve died to sin and get to live with Christ.

➡️ In Him, you have the power to get unstuck.

You don’t have to keep running the same route — Jesus already made a new way. ✨

Death is the most obvious reminder that something in our world isn’t right. We weren’t created to die — sin brought death into humanity through Adam. But just as death entered through one man, life and hope come through another — Jesus. 🙌

We don’t have to fear death because Jesus defeated it. He’s our victory, our forgiveness, and our meaning. The real question is… what’s your plan after death?

Because death is certain — but in Christ, so is life.

Romans 5:12–21 🤍

The Benefits of a Relationship with God ✨

When you have a relationship with God, everything changes. 💭

It puts your problems in perspective—because even your suffering has purpose. God uses it to build endurance, character, and hope that never disappoints. 🙌

Our relationship with God is rooted in His love—undeserved, unearned, and unshakable. ❤️ Through Jesus, we’ve been justified, reconciled, and given access to peace that the world can’t offer.

The best thing about Christianity isn’t what we get, but who we get. 🤍

This week we looked at Romans 4 and the incredible truth that we are saved by faith, not by our own works. Salvation isn’t something we can earn—it’s something that’s credited to us through Jesus. 💥

Before we ever do anything, our identity in Christ comes first. And when doubts creep in, we can rest in this: faith over feelings, focus over distractions, and trust over fear. ✝️
