What do you see when you look in the mirror?
Is it something that disgusts you? Causes you pain and frustration?
Do you wish you saw something other than what is reflected back at you?
We see what we CHOOSE to see.
God gives us the choice. We can either allow our eyes to see what the world tells us we are or we can trust in the truth of who Jesus says we are.
To whom we look, so shall we follow.
Matthew 6:22-23 " The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are unhealthy, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
The enemy is a liar. He wants to tempt us to find discontent with our bodies so that we then can be discontent with God.
When you find yourself faced with temptation, the best way to avoid falling into sin is by going to God's word. Using scripture to fight off the devil just as Jesus did when he was tempted in the desert.
The next time you find yourself unhappy with your body, remember that is the devil trying to bring darkness into your body and your life. he wants you to feel shame, pain, hurt by using lies against you.
Use this scripture or any other you find that relates to his lies to remind both Satan and yourself who you serve and who your master says you are.
Refuse to see with eyes of the world and be changed in your mind to see through the eyes of God.
Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.
