The devil loves to tell you that you’re no good, useless, weak. He tells you that you are a total failure and will never measure up to God’s standard. On top of that, he wants to convince you that God is angry with you.
These are all lies that come straight from the pit of hell! The enemy of your soul is determined to undermine your relationship with your heavenly Father and sidetrack you from the purpose for which you are called and anointed. Since you know Satan is a liar, let’s look at proof that Jesus has made you worthy by his sacrifice on the cross.
“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins” (Colossians 1:14).
The Father has made us fit, worthy, qualified in character “to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints.” What Jesus did on the cross qualifies you for eternal inheritance, and if God has qualified you for eternal life, he will make you fit in character as well.
You cannot obtain the righteousness of Christ by working for it, but you can obtain it by believing in it and trusting God for it. Not only are you saved by faith but you are sanctified by faith, justified by faith, healed by faith, kept by faith. It all happens by faith in what the Savior has done.
Don’t make the mistake of listening to Satan’s lies about your walk with Jesus. Truly, you are worthy because of his sacrifice; his love endures forever! You can stand before all of heaven and earth in full assurance and confidence.
