For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. - Proverbs 23:7
Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king...And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, but not with a loyal heart. - 2 Chronicles 25:1-2
Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king...And he did what was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Uzziah had done . - 2 Chronicles 27:1-2
Whatever you think in your heart, that is what you are. Your actions were not sudden random acts. But your decision have come from what you have thought in your heart. All actions are derived from a choice. Everyday we are making decisions whether we think about it or not. Unconsciously we have led our lives to where we are if we have not been careful to think what our lives will be. So make a conscious decision to believe what you want to believe in your heart. Life is made up of decisions we have made in the past until we are where we are now. Your life is what you think it should be, whatever you believe about yourself, that is what you will be and always be. Remember that in the end, the LORD will judge you not for your accomplishments or your success, but by the intentions or motives of your heart and you can change the motives of your hearts by changing your thoughts.
So if you want to change yourself, you must first change the way you think about yourself. If you are unconsciously drifting through life, you will end up in a place where you don't want to be. Make a conscious decision everyday of who you are and who you want to be. Start with the core of who you are, your heart. Why do you chose to be this or that?
Who are you? Do you really know who you are?
We are not talking about reputation and character.
Reputation is what the public thinks or knows about you.
Character is the truth that you hide about you.
Who really are you?
1. You were created in the image of GOD. - Genesis 1:26
2. You are sons (male and female) of GOD. - John.1:12, Galatians 3:26.
3. Your citizenship is in Heaven. - Philippians 3:20
4. You are ambassadors of Yeshua (Jesus) here on earth. - 2 Corinthians 5:20
5. God created you for a specific purpose.
