Your Worth!


Revelation 1:5-6 “All praise to him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by shedding his blood for us. He has made us his kingdom and his priests who serve before God his Father. Give to him everlasting glory! He rules forever and ever! Amen!”


We need to come to the place where we are secure enough in who we are in Christ that we will not allow our sense of worth to be based on the opinions or actions of others.

Don't try to find your worth in how you look. Don't try to find your worth in what you do or what you’ve done in the past. Worth does not come from the amount of money you make, the performances you render, or the number of lovers you embrace. Don't try to find your worth in how other people treat you.

You are worth something because Jesus shed His blood for you.

You may have faults, and there may be things about you that need to be changed, but God is working on you the same as He is on everybody else. Don't let somebody else dump their problems off on you and allow them to re-entangle you in the web of worry, doubt, doom, gloom, shame & sin.

Don't allow someone else to make you feel worthless or useless just because they don't know how to treat you right and love you as you deserve to be loved… as a blood -bought child of God.

Don't spend all your life trying to win somebody else's acceptance or approval. Just do unto others as Jesus commands us to do and if that isn’t good enough…that’s HIS problem. Remember that you have already been accepted and approved by God. Make sure that your affirmation, your validation, your sense of self-worth come from Him and what He says about you in His Word.

  • You are an heir of God…a Joint Heir with Jesus Christ.

  • You are a Son OR Daughter of God.You are the Apple of God’s Eye.

  • You are the Righteousness of God in Christ. (That means you stand in the presence of God as though sin has NEVER touched your life.)

  • You are Made in the Image & Likeness of God.

  • You possess a Soul which is greater than all the value the world has to offer.

  • You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people.

  • Angels minister unto us , and rejoice in our obedience.

  • Jesus is preparing a place for you to live with Him in Heaven forever.

  • You can do all things thru Christ Who strengthens you!

  • You are fearfully & wonderfully made.You have the favor of God & of man.

  • You are Free to live in Christ.

Need I say More?


Peace in Jesus!
