List 10 things you know to be absolutely certain.
In our journey of faith, it is essential to anchor ourselves in the certainties that God has revealed to us through His Word. These certainties provide unwavering hope, strength, and encouragement. Let us delve into these ten powerful truths, supported by relevant Bible verses, that remind us of God’s infinite love, His unwavering presence, and the victorious life we have in Christ.
1. God loves me and will never leave nor forsake me:
“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:38-39)
2. Jesus died for me and rose again:
“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8)
3. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me:
“I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” (Philippians 4:13)
4. The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwells inside me:
“And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.” (Romans 8:11)
5. The Spirit of God is upon me, and I am anointed:
“But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth.” (1 John 2:20)
6. My name is written in the book of life:
“Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” (Luke 10:20)
7. I am forgiven and washed by the blood of Jesus:
“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.” (1 John 1:7)
8. I am a new creation in Christ:
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” (2 Corinthians 5:17)
9. God has a plan and purpose for my life:
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)
10. I am an heir of God and a co-heir with Christ:
“Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.” (Romans 8:17)
These ten certainties serve as a solid foundation for our faith in Christ. By embracing them, we can stand firm in the face of trials, knowing that God’s love never wavers and His promises are true. Let us continuously remind ourselves of these truths, allowing them to transform our lives, strengthen our faith, and inspire us to live victoriously for the glory of our Lord.
