Beleiving who I am

Today I was feeling defeated at the thought of the work ahead of me. Changing habits and doing the work to change can be emotionally exhausting.
Then I read 1 John 5:5

"Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God."

I had to ask myself the obvious question. Do I know who I am? Why is it so difficult for me to live like the conqueror God has stated that I am, in Him?

My conclusion: Satan doesn't want me to believe what God has said is true. Just like Eve in the garden, Satan wants me to question God and be defeated.

I am so grateful that God is renewing my mind and finishing the work He has stared in me (Philippians 1:6). Once more time I am putting myself in His capable hands, I believe, and I want to live like the conqueror that I am, in Him.

Hope
