Congratulations, you are about to read a lesson that is going to revolutionize
your way of thinking. It is going to give you an attitude of victory, to live
the victorious life that God had in mind for you.
Open
your heart, and get ready to receive some victorious thoughts.
Victory
is ours. God has made us more than conquerors, Romans
8:37, “Nay, in all
these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us,”
in Christ. You’ve
just begun to embark upon a journey that is going to renew your way of seeing
things, to see them in the light of the victory of God’s Word.
Victory in Jesus is what we have.
Before we get started with this study, let's enter into some praise and
worship. Prepare your spirit to receive this wonderful concept of thinking.
Begin to think of who you are, in Christ, instead of who you were in yourself
without Him.
Worship God now, and lift Him up. Jesus, we love you, we worship you. Jesus,
we praise you. How great you are, Lord. All glory to you, Lord.
Praise the Lord. He is worthy. He is worthy to receive power, honor, glory
and praise. Jesus we give you all the praise. Let’s pray.
Right now, Father, we are asking you to anoint what we are about to read, by
Your Spirit. That you would bless these words, that you would enrich these
words to the heart of the person reading this study, right now. We praise
you, Jesus, we give you the glory and the honor, right now, and we lift up
your name above all things. Hallelujah! Amen!
God's Plan
God
wants you to begin to see yourself the way He sees you. You are complete in
Him and you can become everything that God wants you to be simply by
internalizing the things that God has said about you and understanding who
you already are in Christ. Philemon 1:6 says that your faith
becomes effective through the acknowledging of every good thing that is in you
in Christ Jesus.
Not
through acknowledging the bad. Not through an I can’t mentality, but through
an I can mentality. The Word of God says in Philippians 4:13, “I can do
all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” He strengthens you
to do that which you think is impossible.
Jesus said in Mark 4:26-27, “And He said, So is the kingdom of God, as
if a man should cast seed into the ground; And should sleep, and rise night
and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how,”
that the Word of God is a seed. Seeds, as you know, must be planted. And if
they are to grow they must be planted in soil. If they are to grow properly
they must be planted in fertile soil. A seed cannot germinate in the wrong
environment. A seed cannot germinate in an environment that it was not meant
to germinate in. Jesus said that the words He spoke are spirit and life.
John 6:63, “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the
words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.” His
words are spirit and life.
Therefore, the Word of God being spirit must enter into the human spirit
before it can germinate. It cannot and will not germinate in the mind. But
the mind is the place at which it begins its journey to your spirit. Entering
in through your eyes by reading, Luke 11:34, “The light
of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body
also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of
darkness,” or through the ears by hearing, Romans 10:17, "So
then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."
The
process begins in the mind through the revelation of the Holy Spirit and a
repentance begins to occur. A 180°
turnaround is set in motion through a continual fortifying and nurturing. The
Word bores a hole through your soul as you are converted to Christ in a given
area, leaving a clear conduit through which Christ-life can flow. It
transfers to your spirit where the Holy Spirit waters the Word in your spirit
through prayer. The Word will germinate and become life to you after its
kind. The Word of God talks about the seed of the serpent or the seed of the
devil in, Genesis 3:15, “And I will put enmity between
thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy
head, and thou shalt bruise his heel,” and that seed, in that
particular reference, is the thought or the word of the devil. Jesus said it
contains a lie, John 8:44, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the
lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and
abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a
lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”
Hence the term
corruptible seed. 1 Peter 1:23, “Being born again, not of
corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and
abideth for ever.”
Many people have an image
in their mind that was not put there by the Word of God. It is a bad image,
it is a wrong thought. Not only do they have a bad image of themselves, but
they have a bad image of God as well. Yet, we were originally created in the
image of God. Satan has warped mankind's view of himself, his view of his
fellow man, and his view toward God.
You
are about to read and study qualities from God’s Word that you can release
through putting your faith in the work of Christ through confessing to
yourself, and meditating, therein. This will change the image that you have
of yourself and the image that you have of God into the image that God
intended, to help you build faith and confidence to face the encounters of
life. Jesus Christ is in your heart, if you have accepted Him as your Lord
and Savior. HE IS THE GREAT I AM. He is everything to you that you need.
The
Word of God must germinate in you that it might bare fruit after its kind.
Each natural seed on the earth bares fruit after its kind. An apple seed
produces an apple tree which produces apples. Each one of the qualities
listed in this study are supported the Holy Scriptures and will enable you to
release fruit through you. If it is planted in your spirit through regular
meditation it will activate that virtue that is in you in Christ Jesus,
Psalms 1:2, “But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he
meditate day and night,” and whatever you do will prosper.
People build physical muscle through physical exercise, they build
intelligence through intellectual exercise, now we must come to the
realization that we can build our faith through a labor to enter into rest
that consists of a general, consistent, profession of our faith and the
internalizing of the Word of Faith. When the disciples asked Jesus Christ to
increase their faith, He told them to have faith as a grain of a mustard
seed. Matthew 17:20, “And Jesus said unto them, Because of your
unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard
seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it
shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.”
In
essence what He was saying was that you must plant the seed into the soil of
your spirit, and wait for it to grow. Therefore, my friend, you may begin to
build your faith with these qualities through the reading and internalizing of
the I AM’s and by speaking them out loud to yourself during your daily prayer
and devotional time. You will activate them and they will manifest through
you.
It
is very important to remember that it is only by the mercy and grace of God,
and the sacrifice through Jesus Christ on the cross, that these gifts and
qualities are rightfully obtained. John 15:5, “I am the vine, ye are the
branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much
fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.” On that basis alone you
have the right, by the Word of God as a joint heir, to take hold of and
receive all of the promises of God. 2 Corinthians 1:20, “For all the
promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen.”
May
God bless you in your endeavors to incubate and internalize His Word in your
spirit.
Now, turn on your internal cameras and begin to focus in on the pictures you
are about to read and see about yourself. When the Hebrew people of the Old
Testament spoke in Hebrew, their language was pictorial, so that they could
see exactly what was being said and conveyed. Begin to see with your heart
and mind, as best you can, all of the qualities you are about to read, as
being inside you so as to renew your way of seeing and believing.
__________________________
I
am a witness,
Acts 1:8, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is
come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in
Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of
the earth.”
See yourself as a witness for Christ, having many opportunities to share the
Gospel.
I
am gracious,
Luke
4:22, “And all bare Him witness, and wondered at the gracious words
which proceeded out of His mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?”
The
Word of God says that Jesus spoke gracious words and He obviously was
gracious. You are gracious, in Him. Say it to yourself and think it, "I am
gracious, in Christ."
I
am thankful,
Colossians
3:15, “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are
called in one body; and be ye thankful.”
Consider yourself a grateful individual, thankful to be alive, happy to be
alive. Happy to receive all the benefits of the work of Christ for your life,
knowing that it is finished, in Him. Amen.
I
am a vessel of honor,
2 Timothy 2:21, “If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall
be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and
prepared unto every good work.” I am a vessel of honor through which
God's gifts and fruit can pour.
I
am anointed
by His Spirit, 1 John 2:27, “But the anointing which ye have
received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as
the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no
lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.” Know
that you are anointed by the Spirit of God,
even as God would have you to know as a result of the work Christ. God has
placed the anointing of His Spirit in you. That anointing teaches you and
others around you. It is through the anointing that the gifts and fruits are
dispensed. Amen.
I
am made in God’s image,
Genesis
1:27, “So God created man in His own image, in the image of God created
He him; male and female created He them.”
God
made you in his very image. God is beautiful. God is intelligent. God is
creative, and He made you in His image. Jesus came to restore that image to
you. Receive it. Accept it. Don’t be afraid. It’s O.K. to see yourself
made in the image, the very image of God Almighty.
I
am visionary,
Proverbs 29:18, “Where there is no vision, the people perish: but
he that keepeth the law, happy is he.” I have a vision, from God.
Say it with your own heart and mind, I have a vision, from God. He gives me
insight. He shows me the way He wants me to go. He gives me goals that my
life might be enhanced and full of vitality and refreshing times. Thank you,
Lord, for vision from your Spirit.
I
am healthy,
3 John 1:2, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and
be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” The Word of God says
above all things that God would have you to be in health, to be prospering,
even as your soul prospers.
Count yourself healthy. Say these things to yourself, I am healthy, my heart
is strong, my organs are healthy and clean, my metabolism is balanced, my
blood sugar is balanced, my thinking is clear, God desires health for my body
and I receive health.
Physically I am healthy. Physically I receive only the exact proper weight
for my body that God ordained it to carry. I am delivered from excess
pounds. I see myself in shape, fit, physically ready, physically sound to
carry out God’s vision in my life. I am delivered from toxins in my body and
I am translated into total health for God’s plan in my life, for service and
enjoyment. Thank you, Lord, that I am in shape, by your grace. I watch what
I eat and I exercise properly to keep my body in top condition for you.
By
His stripes I was healed, 1 Peter
2:24, “Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we,
being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye
were healed.”
From the very core of my bone marrow to the exterior of my being, my skin
tissue is healthy, my eyesight is clear as well as my hearing. I am healthy.
Thank you, Lord. Just thank Him for your health. Thank Him for wholeness.
I am whole,
1 Thessalonians
5:23, “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God
your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ.”
I am complete in Christ, Colossians
2:10, “And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all
principality and power.”
I
am dead and hid
in Him to my old life, Colossians 3:3, “For ye are
dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God,” and
Ephesians 2:6, " And hath raised us up together, and made us sit
together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus." The devil can't find me
because I am dead and hid in Christ. He is my protector. I am in the shadow
of His wings. I am in the cleft of the Rock. I'm hid, in Him and nothing can
come nigh unto my dwelling. Read also Psalms 91.
I
am a new creation, 2 Corinthians
5:17,
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old
things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” I am a
new creation, old things are past away and all
things have become new.
I am resurrected in Him,
Romans 6:5, “For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his
death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.”
Praise
God. My spirit, my soul, my body and me endeavors, my material world, my
family, it is all complete. My perspective is right. I have the right
perspective and I am confident of that fact, by God's grace.
I am
risen,
Colossians
2:12,
“Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through
the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.”
I have
resurrection power in my being. Jesus Christ is in me and He has resurrected
me from the dead and defeated death itself.
I
am prosperous,
3 John 1:2, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest
prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” I am a
prosperous individual because the Word of God says that I am, in Christ. It
permits me and encourages me to prosper. That everything I do will prosper if
I will meditate on the Word of God. My life is prosperous and I don’t feel
guilty about it because it is God’s good pleasure to give to me the kingdom.
I
am successful,
Joshua 1:8, “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou
shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according
to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous,
and then thou shalt have good success.” I am a success
because the successful one dwells in me, and greater is He who is in me than
he who is in the world. I am successful. I am dead to failure. Failure
simply means to give up. When I seemingly fail, I am one who gets back up and
I win.
I
am a star, 2 Peter 1:19, “We have also a more sure word of
prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth
in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your
hearts.” I don’t envy the world, the people in the world or their
vain glories. The Day Star is arising in my heart and makes me a star and
shares His glory with me. Thank you, Jesus, for sharing your kingdom with me
and your inheritance with me.
I
am favored,
Proverbs 22:1, “A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches,
and loving favour rather than silver and gold.” God has
favored me because of Jesus. He doesn’t reject me. He is pleased in Jesus
and I have received Jesus and through His shed blood I am favored by God.
He
loves me for I am loved, John 17:23, “I in them, and thou
in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that
thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.”
I receive the love of God. There is nothing that can separate me from
the love of my God. For it says in Romans 8:37-39, “Nay, in all these
things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am
persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor
powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any
other creature shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in
Christ Jesus our Lord.”
I
am loving,
Romans 5:5, “And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is
shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.”
The love of God is in my heart shed abroad and loving others through me.
I
am kind,
Romans 12:10, “Be kindly affectioned one to another with
brotherly love; in honour preferring one another.” I have the fruits
of the spirit in my life. They are manifesting in my life.
I
am gentle,
Galatians
5:22, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith.”
I
am meek,
Galatians
5:23, “Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.”
I
am fearless,
1 John
4:18, “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear:
because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.”
Perfect love casteth out all fear. I have nothing to fear because I am secure
in the love of God. God’s love anchors me, it secures me and displaces all
fear from me.
I
am popular,
Acts
2:47, “Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added
to the church daily such as should be saved.”
I
am growing in favor with man and with God. I am popular in the sense that
people see the goodness of God in me and love to see the goodness of God and
feel the goodness of God in me.
I
am wealthy,
Deuteronomy 8:18, “But thou shalt remember the Lord thy God: for it is
He that giveth thee power to get wealth, that He may establish His
covenant which He sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.” I am
wealthy through the eyes of faith. All my needs have been supplied for God
has given me the power to get wealth. I receive it. It is a tool from God to
be used in His kingdom.
I
am Holy Spirit controlled,
Ephesians
5:18, “And be
not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit.”
I allow the Holy Spirit to rule in my heart, reign in my heart, guide my
heart, and lead me. Holy Spirit of God I see you leading me, I see you
guiding me. I receive your guidance. Thank you Holy Spirit for comforting
me. I receive your comfort. Praise you, Jesus, for comfort through the Holy
Spirit.
I
am a winner and a conqueror,
Romans 8:37-39, “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors
through Him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life,
nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to
come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate
us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” God has
made me victorious, even over death itself, the greatest enemy of all
mankind. If, through Christ, I have defeated death the greatest foe, than I
am altogether victorious over all things.
I
am Spirit led,
Romans
8:14, “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons
of God.”
God guides my path, He lights my path, He shows me what to do. I receive the
leading of the Spirit of God.
I
am a giver,
2 Corinthians 9:7, “Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so
let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful
giver.” I am a giving individual because God loveth a cheerful
giver and I give cheerfully because I know that I will reap what I sow. I
accept my harvest that I have planted through my giving. I am not going to
reject it, nor belittle it, I receive the harvest of my giving.
I
am a receiver,
Mark
11:24, “Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray,
believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.”
I
receive that harvest. Thank you, Jesus. See your harvest as a corn field on
a farm. You have planted your seed and the corn is growing and you have a
right to harvest the corn that you have labored to plant, so receive. Receive
from God and receive your harvest for it is harvest time for those who sow
seed. Psalms 126:5, "They that sow in tears shall reap in joy."
I
am uplifting,
Philippians 2:3, “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in
lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.” I am
a person who lifts up others through the Word. I encourage them to see God’s
best for their life. This helps me to see God’s best for my life (sowing
seeds to others to help them see). Thank you, Lord, for sending somebody to
me to lift up. I want to be a builder. I want to build your church, Lord.
Jesus, I don’t want to be one who tears down through speaking negative things
about others or myself. I desire your church to be built up. Jesus, I desire
to obey you when you say, Feed my sheep. I desire to be a feeder and an
uplifter. Thank you, Lord.
I am
chosen,
1 Peter 2:9, “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood,
an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of
him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.” I
am chosen by God and I am ready to go.
I am
delivered,
Colossians
1:13,
“Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated
us into the kingdom of his dear Son."
I am
delivered
from the power of darkness and I am translated into the kingdom of
God’s dear Son. I am delivered from every single thing that has to do with
the fall and I am translated into everything that has to do with redemption.
I rest in Christ and I receive total deliverance in every dimension of my
life.
I am
above problems,
Ephesians 2:6, “And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together
in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” Because I sit in heavenly places
with Christ, by grace through faith, problems don't bother me. And that puts
me above the thoughts of this world. I am an overcomer because of it, now.
I am
the head, not the tail,
I am above only, not beneath, Deuteronomy 28:13, “And the
Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be
above only, and thou shalt not be beneath.” Though, sometimes on the
exterior, it looks like my life is failing, in another dimension I have
already succeeded – because God’s Word says to me I am “above only, not
beneath; I am the head, not the tail.” Hebrews 4:1, “Let us therefore
fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you
should seem to come short of it.” Sometimes it seems
like things are not the way God would want them but it is a lie because God’s
Word is true – above all other truths, above all other thoughts, above all
other laws, above all other things. God’s truth reigns in my heart. It is so,
so be it.
I am
worthy,
2 Corinthians
5:21,
"For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made
the righteousness of God in him."
I have
been made worthy. I am worthy by the blood of the Lamb of God. The devil is
overcome in my life because God had made me worthy and when he (the devil)
accuses me I just plead the blood. I stand before the Judge of Heaven and
plea the blood. I enter my plea. I am worthy. I am worthy because the
righteousness of Christ clothes me. He has imputed it to me.
I am
righteous,
1 Corinthians 1:30, “But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is
made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and
redemption,” and Romans 5:17, “For if by one
man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of
grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one,
Jesus Christ.”
I am
clean,
John 15:3, “Now ye are clean through the word which I have
spoken unto you.” I am clean. I don’t receive the
feelings of uncleanness. I am clean, by faith in the Word of God. God has
declared me clean and what He has called clean, do not call it unclean. Say
to yourself, I am clean. Acts 10:15, "And the voice spake unto him again
the second time, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common."
I am
powerful,
Ephesians 3:20, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in
us.” I am powerful because the dunamis power of God dwells in my
spirit richly.
I am
knowledgeable,
2 Peter 1:2, “Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the
knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord.” I receive the knowledge
of the Lord that I have Christ Jesus through His living Word. It increases my
ability to see, know and understand who I am, where I am, what I have, and
what's been done in the Son.
I am
wise,
2 Timothy 3:15, "And that from a child thou hast known the holy
scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through
faith which is in Christ Jesus," and 1 Corinthians 1:30,
“But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom,
and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption.” God’s wisdom
is in me and resting upon me. Thank you, Lord, for your wisdom. All glory to
you.
I am a
prayer person,
Ephesians 6:18, “Praying always with all prayer and supplication
in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication
for all saints.” I am a person that likes to pray. I thank God for
the opportunity to pray. I thank God for the privilege of praying. What a
wonderful opportunity and privilege to intercede and to bring my requests
before the throne of grace. According to Ephesians 3:20,
“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or
think, according to the power that worketh in us,” mountains move
through my prayer. I have mountain moving ability through my prayer and it is
released from me through Him who dwells within me.
I am
consistent,
1 Peter
1:10,
“Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and searched diligently, who
prophesied of the grace that should come unto you.”
I do on a daily basis those things that are of a good profession. I am a doer
of the work for I am consistent, in Christ.
I am
balanced,
Colossians
3:15,
“And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called
in one body; and be ye thankful.”
I walk
in a position of grace through the work of Christ that brings complete balance
and stability in all dimensions of my life.
I don’t
start a project and quit, I see a project through to the end because it is
finished in Christ. After that, I continue on to the next assignment God has
for me. I am dead in Christ, to moving in any tangential way that is out of
the way. Thank you Lord, for balance in my life.
I am
charismatic,
Romans 12:6, “Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is
given to us, whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of
faith,"
and I John 2:27, “But
the anointing which ye have received of Him abideth in you, and ye need not
that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things,
and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in
Him.” I have an anointing in me, that abides in me, that flows
through me. The Holy Spirit has anointed me.
I am
saved,
Romans 10:9, That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the
dead, thou shalt be saved.” I am saved from death and
everything that has to do with death - sickness, poverty, disease, depression,
confusion, etc. I am saved daily, and I shall be saved, for my mortal body
shall put on immortality. 1 Corinthians 15:53, "For this corruptible
must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality."
I am
sound minded,
2 Timothy 1:7, “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of
power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” God has given me
power, He’s given me love, He’s given me a sound mind. Through the work of
Christ, I am dead to fear and resurrected to a sound mind. My mind radiates
soundness. My mind is brilliant with soundness and clarity. See yourself
facing your day with clarity of mind. You are dead in Christ to confusion and
you are resurrected in Christ to soundness of mind. You are dead to dullness
and numbness of mind and resurrected to sharpness and clarity. Thank Him now,
with your all your heart for a sound mind. Thank Him by praising Him for
soundness in this world that tries to fill us with confusion.
I am
secure,
John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten
Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting
life.” I am secure because God loved me so much that he sent His only
begotten Son that if I would believe on Him I should not perish but have
eternal life, everlasting life. I am as secure as one can be. Say and accept
that in Christ Jesus you are saved and secure as long as you continue to trust
Him, you are saved and will be saved.
I am
liberated,
Galatians 5:1, “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ
hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.”
I have
been set free by the power of God, through the work of Christ and I receive my
liberation. Jesus said I shall know the truth and the truth shall make me
free.
I am
blessed,
Psalms 115:15, “Ye are blessed of the Lord which made heaven and
earth.”
Deuteronomy 28:3-6, "Blessed shalt thou be in the city, and blessed
shalt thou be in the field. Blessed shall be the fruit of thy
body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase
of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep. Blessed shall be thy basket
and thy store. Blessed shalt thou be when thou comest in, and
blessed shalt thou be when thou goest out."
I am
blessed coming in and I am blessed going out. When I leave my house I am
blessed. When I come back to my house I am blessed. I am blessed in my
house. I am blessed outside my house. I am blessed when I leave my city. I
am blessed when I return. I am blessed when I leave my place of employment.
I am blessed when I return to my place of employment. I am blessed when I go
on vacation. I am blessed when I return from my vacation. Thank you, Lord, I
am blessed wherever I go. Praise God for blessing my life.
I am
your temple,
1 Corinthians
3:16,
“Know ye not that ye are the
temple
of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?”
You,
Lord, dwell in me.
I am
organized,
1 Corinthians
14:40,
“Let all things be done decently and in order.”
I am
organized. There is order in my life because God is orderly and has put the
entire universe in order. He has put nature in order and given great balance
to all things. Therefore, that order is flooding me and flowing through me
into my world, into the surroundings in which God has made me overseer and
given me authority. Thank you Father, for order.
I am
confident,
1 John
5:14,
“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any
thing according to his will, he heareth us.”
I am
able to look a person in the eye with complete confidence. I am calm. I am
dead to being afraid and nervous. Therefore, I can be confident in everything
that I think, say and do.
I am
faith filled,
Romans 12:3, “For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man
that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think;
but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of
faith.” God has given me enough faith to start my journey
toward abundant living. I receive abundant life, through the work of Christ.
I place my total trust in His work of redemption to replace mine.
I am
skillful in the Word,
Matthew 7:28-29, “And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these
sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: For he taught them as one
having authority, and not as the scribes.” God has given me skill in
His Word, for Jesus Christ is the Word made flesh and He dwells in
me.
I am
happy and full of joy,
1 Peter 1:8. Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom,
though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy
unspeakable and full of glory. I have joy unspeakable and am full of
glory and it gives me strength, for the joy of the Lord is my strength.
I am
redeemed,
Galatians
3:13,
“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse
for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree.”
I
was sold into slavery when Adam fell and Satan was my master. Jesus
came, redeemed me out of slavery and paid the price to set me free
I am
creative,
Genesis 1:1-26, I see myself with creative ability according to
Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heaven and the
earth.” God created the heaven and earth, He made me in His image and
He dwells in me. Therefore, a creative ability is in me and flows through
me. I receive my creative abilities.
I am
occupying,
Luke 19:13, “And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds,
and said unto them, Occupy till I come.”
I am occupying my ground and I am much like a soldier who has great victory in
the army he is serving which is holding that ground that has been taken.
Therefore,
I am
standing,
Ephesians
6:13,14, “And having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, ..”
I am
standing my ground. I am dead to giving in to the enemy. Thank you, Jesus,
for what I have and I am not letting it go. Praise you, Jesus, for it. I
hold my ground, and what I have that God has given me, cannot be taken away.
Praise God for everything that God has given me, in Christ. I take my stand,
now.
I am
faithful,
Colossians 1:2, “To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ
which are at Colosse: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father and
the Lord Jesus Christ.” I continue to serve the Lord Jesus, by His
grace.
I am
obedient,
1 Peter 1:2, “Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father,
through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of
the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.”
Through Christ who is in me I have the strength to obey Him. I see myself as
an obedient and faithful servant of God. He that is faithful over little
shall be given much.
I am
prudent,
1 Samuel
16:18,
“Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in
playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in
matters, and a comely person, and the Lord is with him.”
I am
prudent and wise with my finances and with the things I own. I know how to
generate more from what I have. I know how to deal with social situations
with poise because of the wisdom and prudence God has given to me.
I am a
champion,
Hebrews, Chapter 11, I am a champion of faith. Great faith is
in me, the faith of Christ, and it makes me a champion. I do step out and do
great feats in His name.
I am
vibrant,
Ephesians 3:20, “Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in
us.” The dunamis power of God inside of me radiates from me and it
makes me brilliant.
I am
brilliant,
Hebrews 1:7, “And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and
his ministers a flame of fire.” The light of Christ shines
from me and makes me brilliant and that brilliance enables me to understand.
I am
resilient,
Proverbs 24:16, “For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up
again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.” If I fall I
bounce back. I have resiliency in my spirit and that keeps me moving
forward.
I am
gifted,
Ephesians 4:8, "Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led
captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men," and 1
Corinthians 12:1, “Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would
not have you ignorant.” I have gifts in my life and I release them
through resurrection life in Christ. I receive the gifts of the spirit. The
gifts of the Spirit operate in me. I seek them and desire them. By God’s
grace I know they flow through me. I am a seeker and releaser of the gifts
of God.
I am an
encourager,
Proverbs 25:11, “A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in
pictures of silver.” When others are down, I am encouraging to
them. I seek to lift and inspire others through the Word of faith.
I am
truthful,
Ephesians
4:25,
“Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor;
for we are members one of another.”
I
speak the truth in love.
I am
miraculous,
Mark 16:17-18, “And these signs shall follow them that believe;
In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They
shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt
them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.” I am
miraculous. The miraculous power of God is released through my faith.
I am
observant,
Ephesians
5:14-15, “Wherefore He saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the
dead, and Christ shall give thee light. See then that ye walk
circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise.”
I walk circumspectly and look about me through the eyes of the Spirit and I
observe things beyond the surface.
I am
perceptive,
Matthew
22:18,
“But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, Why tempt ye me, ye
hypocrites?”
I
perceive and discern because Christ is in me seeing beyond the surface of the
situation.
I am
eternal,
John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten
Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not die, but have everlasting
life.” I have everlasting life.
I am
productive,
Romans
12:11,
“Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord.”
My life is very productive and full of activities that produce bountiful
things.
I am
equipped,
2 Timothy
3:17,
“That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good
works.”
I am fully equipped to do all of the things that I must do for the Lord Jesus
Christ, for my family, for my brothers and sisters and my country.
I am
fruitful,
John
15:16,
“Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye
should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should
remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it
you.”
I have
the fruit of the spirit flowing through me.
I am
consecrated,
Hebrews
7:28,
“For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the
oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for
evermore.”
I am separated and dedicated unto God.
I am
sanctified,
1 Corinthians
1:30,
"But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and
righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption."
I have
been cleansed and purged by Jesus and made ready for His work. He has made
sanctification for me, in Him I am separated from the world. I do not try to
separate myself from the world, I enter rest in Christ wherein I am separated
and sanctified.
I am
devoted,
Psalms 119:33, “Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes; and I shall
keep it unto the end.” I am devoted to everything that God
would have me be devoted to and in the priority He would have me be devoted to
them.
I am
special,
Ephesians 2:10, “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ
Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in
them.” I am a special individual because God has created me unique.
There is no one else in the whole universe like me.
I am
encouraged,
1 Samuel 30:6, “And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake
of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for
his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the
Lord his God.” I am dead to discouragement. I am encouraged at every
point and stage of any situation for Jesus Christ is in me and greater is He
who is in me than he who is in the world. 1 John 4:4, “Ye are of God,
little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you,
than he that is in the world.”
I am
courageous,
2 Chronicles 32:7, “Be strong and courageous, be not afraid nor
dismayed for the king of
Assyria, nor for all the multitude that is with him: for there be more with us
than with him.”
I am
courageous. I have great courage to face any situation for the Lion of the
Tribe of Judah, himself, dwells in me and flows through me.
I am
jubilant,
Nehemiah 8:10, “Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and
drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for
this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the
Lord is your strength.” I have joy in life, I’m jubilant and
happy. My days flow with joy. I will rejoice in the Lord each and every
day. Thank you, Lord, for my jubilant attitude about life. I see myself
going through this day with a jubilant spirit. “This is the day that
the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it,” Psalms
118:24. Philippians 4:4, "Rejoice in the Lord alway: and
again I say, Rejoice."
I am
galvanized,
1 John
2:14,
“I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the
beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the
word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.”
I have been fortified and alerted by the Word of God.
I am
reigning,
Romans 5:17, “For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much
more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness
shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.” In Christ I am made
a king and a priest. I am reigning. and I have total victory in Him.
I am
dynamic,
Revelation 21:6, “And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha
and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of
the fountain of the water of life freely.” The generating power of
God radiates from me. God holds the power of the atom together and He is in
me with the kind of power that it takes to do mighty miracles.
I am
fervent,
James
5:16,
“The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.”
I have
a fervent prayer life and it is effective.
I am
effective,
Philemon 1:6, “That the communication of thy faith may become
effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in
Christ Jesus.” I am effectively affecting the world around me in
tangible ways for the good.
I am
fulfilled,
Psalms 91:16, “With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my
salvation.” I see myself fulfilled in my life. My life is
fulfilling. God leads and guides me up every path, through every situation,
and fulfills me. For I am filled full and my life is complete.
I am
free,
Romans 8:2, “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made
me free from the law of sin and death.” Even if I were in
prison I would still be free. I would be free as one could be, for I am free
from my sins and I am free from death. What should it profit a man if he
should gain the whole world and lose his soul? (Mark
8:36)
Because my soul is delivered from the power of darkness, I am free in Christ.
I am
renewed,
Romans 6:4, "Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death:
that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the
Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life," Ephesians 4:23, "And
be renewed in the spirit of your mind.," I walk in
resurrection life. The Word of God is renewing my thinking
every day and my faith is fully developed in Christ.
I am
bold,
Proverbs 28:1, “The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous
are bold as a lion.” I speak out when I know that I should,
and do the things that I am supposed to do even if I am opposed.
I am a
believer,
Mark 9:23, “Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all
things are possible to him that believeth.” I am a believer and a
receiver, not a doubter and a pouter. I believe I’ve received, therefore I
shall have.
I am
persistent,
Ephesians
6:18,
"Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching
thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints."
I see
myself persisting in the things of God and all good endeavors that God has
granted me to do.
I am
triumphant,
2 Corinthians
2:14,
“Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ,
and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.”
Therefore, I am a winner.
I am
forthright,
Psalms 51:6, “Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts:
and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.” I am
direct, clear and honest in presenting God's word.
I am
tenacious,
Hebrews
10:23,
“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he
is faithful that promised).”
I
will not let go until I see all I am believing for come to pass.
I am a
soul winner,
Proverbs 11:30, “The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he
that winneth souls is wise.” The greatest privilege of all is to
win a soul. If I could but win one soul to Christ and save them from eternal
damnation I have done more than the greatest of feats or exploits that man has
ever accomplished. Thank you, Father, for the privilege and wisdom to be a
soul winner.
_______________________
As we
close this study of God’s words, lets take a moment and pray.
Father, I give you the glory, right now, the honor and the praise. I am
assured of my salvation. May your Holy Spirit touch me right now and bless my
spirit as I pray. Father, that you would anoint me with your presence, right
now. Fill me and seal all of the I AM’s, in my soul. Drive them deep into my
spirit, that I might be profitable and successful in all that I think, say and
do. That I would grow and prosper and be in health even as my soul prospers.
I thank you for doing it, in Jesus' name. It is done, in the Son. It is so,
so be it. Amen.
