We are created for life, love, power, prosperity, success and dignity.
Our heritage is to have God's best, to enjoy His companionship and to use His power for the good of ourselves and others.
We are valuable to God and to people because we are created in His class of being. We are vital because God's plan involves us.
When we recognize our value, we cause the seeds of greatness to germinate in us, Galatians 3:29;
1 Peter 1:23.
God's family is supposed to represent Him and reflect His lifestyle here on earth, because as he is, so are we in this world, 1 John 4:17.
We must begin to see and respect ourselves as members of royalty, Galatians 4:6-7.
God never created anything or anyone inferior, Psalm 8:4-6.
God never planned us for poverty, inferiority, sickness, depression, want or insecurity,
1 Peter 2:9.
God planned that whatever could be said about Him, could be said about us, 1 John 4:17,. . ."as He is, so are we in this world."
God created us humans as much like Himself as any child can be like its natural parents.
Self-value will cause us to stand tall, square our shoulders, to look into the future with a new confidence, to walk steady and rise to the level of importance for which God created us, Psalm 91.
Self-value will give us courage because we discover that with God at work in us, we become unconquerable, 1 John 4:4.
Self-value will eliminate fear of failure or defeat because nothing can stop us and God working together, Isaiah 41:10.
Self-value will wipe out inferiority because we are in God's class of being and He, in us, is greater than any person or any power outside of us,
1 John 4:4.
Self-value will rid us of all jealousy because we will never again want to be anyone else, John 15:15.
The bottom line of positive and stable self-esteem is when we can say: "I accept the value that God has put on me."
When we do that, we will then cooperate with God to develop the best possible "ME" in this world.
The man who wrote most of the Psalms was wonderstruck by how God made humans, The Lord made people a little lower than God [the original Hebrew word used for angel was 'Elohim' which is used as God in Genesis 1:1]and crowned them with glory and honor, Psalm 8:5.
The Bible says, You are God's workmanship, Ephesians 2:10
