You Are Enough

You Are Enough

You are enoughDo you ever feel that you are not enough? Don’t let the enemy discourage you. He does not want you to believe that you are loved, you are enough just as you are. Because if you dare to believe that you are enough and dearly loved by God, the devil has lost. God’s love is so powerful that the enemy does not have any chance against it.

You are worthy of God’s love

Self-doubt and self-hate are the enemy’s methods to get you away from God. There’s nothing you can do or leave undone that could ever change God’s love for you. Hence don’t let the enemy fool you. Don’t believe his lies. Educate yourself of God’s love for you. You are enough. More than enough. You are sweetly cherished by God Almighty.

For the Lord your God is living among you.
    He is a mighty savior.
He will take delight in you with gladness.
    With his love, he will calm all your fears.
    He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.
(Zephaniah 3:14, NLT)

You are God’s handiwork, you are his. And he rejoices over you. How wonderful is that? We are enough because we are his children. Also, God’s love is not based on how lovable or fruitful we are. God’s love is based on who he is and he is love.

You are more than enough in Jesus

You are worthy because you are God’s own child. None of us is perfect on our own. But when we are in Christ, we are perfect because Christ is perfect. You see, it’s not about our qualifications but Christ’s. When we abide in Jesus, we have all that is his: wisdom, holiness, worthiness and so on. So if the enemy tries to convince you that you are not enough, tell him that you are more than enough in Jesus.

Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God. (2. Cor. 3:5, NIV)

God loves you unconditionally

So if the enemy tries to convince you that you are not enough, tell him that you are more than enough in Jesus. God loves you and knows you inside out. He knows your name and has a wonderful plan for you. There’s nothing God wouldn’t do for you. You are dearly loved.

You truly are enough. Believe me, you don’t need to earn God’s love, you have it as a gift. Revel in it and rejoice in it. You are loved as you are. And you are perfect in Christ because he is perfect.

 

Gracious God,
Help us to embrace your love.
Take away our doubts.
Help us to detect the lies of the enemy.
Thank you for loving us without hesitation
and delighting over us.
We love you, Lord.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen

  1. “You are more than enough in Jesus.” Beautifully said Mari-Anne. This is something I write and speak about often and my husband teaches on this topic. It’s amazing how these truths often fall upon deaf ears, ourselves included many days!

  2. So encouraging, Mari-Anna! Love the art and really needed to hear this today. I have been weary in spirit and this helps. Thanks for being faithful to share with us!
