If you are a Christian, I'll take some advice.?

How can I break through the bondage of my own insecurities and self-perceptions? I know in my head that God loves me through all, that I am a child of His, and that in Him I have His unending strength, but how do I let that actually manifest itself in my life?





I struggle with minor addictions, a negative self-image, and feeling unworthy.If you are a Christian, I'll take some advice.?
I am a Christian, and yet, I do too struggle with feeling like I am someone of worth. I just have to remind myself, Jesus died for ';mankind'; so we can be with Him. If he was willing to bring himself into human form, to live, to die so young, and such a horrible death, for me, I am someone. I have to try my best daily to say that. We all have our own talents and abiliities, and as long as we do as God wants us to, then it helps. My calling is to teach and martial arts. If I do those, and for God, I feel better. Bind the devil from such words that are not of God. Dig deeper into faith, and find those who will lift you up.If you are a Christian, I'll take some advice.?
Learn more about God and Jesus through reading the Bible.


Moses felt unworthy


Paul had to pummel his body and lead it as a slave. ( no real harm). 1 cor. 9:27


Mary of Magdalene was thought to be a prostitute. she probably had some image problems.


They all have one thing in common they keep doing Gods will. It will be work to stop doing bad things but god will send you holy spirit to help you.


You should find a Jehovah's Witness
Depending on the degree of your negative self-image, you might need professional counseling. But regardless of other things, you need to systematically and religiously read your Bible. I suggest the book of Proverbs because it is full of wisdom and having 31 chapters, you can read a chapter each day of the month. Also, you might read some of Joel Osteen's books........this is his specialty and I'm sure it would help you. God bless you.
Well, first thing to know is that you don't have to be worthy to approach our God. He'll meet you where you are.





Second thing, with addictions, well, they're tough. Trust me, I know. All you can do is remember it is a choice. We choose to give in or not. The more we choose not to give in the less we do it.





Third thing is - when you tell yourself people are talking about you, thinking negative things about you, etc. They're not.

35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36As it is written:


';For your sake we face death all day long;


we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.';[a] 37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.





Jesus IS there for you, no matter what.





Surrender to Him by admitting your problems to Him, %26amp; leave it at the foot of the cross, knowing that God WILL help you.
You let the devil run your life, with minor addictions, negativity. That makes you unworthy. Pray, repent, and stand firm on the Word of God, the Bible. Read it and study it, everyday. Then you will change, because God will change you.
Get some Good Teaching CD's from a GODly Teacher.


Then, Learn Who You Are In-Christ by Studying those CD's.

No, I don't work for him.


The Authority of the Believer is a good start!
This will blow you away.


your image should be of Christ, not yourself.


When you learn to be Christlike, people will see Jesus, not you.





2 Corinthians 10';4-6
There is a time for everything under the sun, and it is time for you to just have faith that Jesus is who he says he is and that He will do what He says He will do. In the name of Jesus Amen
well, considering that you've been a Christian your entire life you might consider, just for a moment, that your religious indoctrination might play at least some part in the cultivation of your negative self image. i mean, the basic dogma of your religion is that you are born of sin, sin that caused the often graphically described suffering and death of your god's son and that you must believe in his human blood sacrifice in order not to be damned to eternal torture. if you have internalized these very negative concepts, relate them to yourself, then add that your parents likely re enforced these dreadful concepts daily it's no wonder you have such a poor self image.
I believe in the saying, ';give your best and God will take care of the rest.'; God is not a dispenser of goodies. He is also not a babysitter at our beck and call. Like a good Father he does not want to spoil us. He wants us to be what we can be with as little help from him as much as possible. There is a divine plan for your life. The main objective of that plan is to get you to heaven. Ask God to help you discern what is best for you every step of the way.
If you haven't accepted Christ as your savior. Accept Christ as your savior, admit your a sinner and ask for forgiveness of you sins. If you have then pray.
