Devotional: Self-Confidence and Self-Esteem

Believing in Your Worth

As children of God, we are fearfully and wonderfully made in His image. Our self-confidence and self-esteem should be rooted in the truth that we are loved and valued by our Creator.

Overcoming Doubt

When we face moments of self-doubt, we can turn to the Scriptures for encouragement. In Philippians 4:13, we are reminded that we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength. With Him, we can overcome the obstacles that try to shake our confidence.

Renewing Your Mind

As we navigate through life, it’s important to renew our minds with God’s truth. Romans 12:2 encourages us to not conform to the patterns of this world, but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. This transformation allows us to have a confident and healthy self-esteem based on God’s perspective.

Walking in God’s Promises

God’s promises are a source of hope and assurance for us. In Psalm 139:14, we are reminded that we are fearfully and wonderfully made. Remembering this truth can help us walk confidently in our identity as children of God.
