HOPE 365 Toolbox - Lenten Journey: Prayer Stations, Reflections

Lenten Journey:

Prayer Stations, Reflections

Take a moment to look at your reflection in the mirror. Who do you see? What words come to mind? Often, it is far easier to focus on lies that sneak into our thoughts. Take another look and this time reflect on who God says you are by reading the phrases and verses below. Then, write the phrase that means the most to you on a sticky and read it every day this week to remind yourself of God’s Word.

I am a child of God.
But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name. (John 1:12)

I am a friend of Jesus.
No longer do I call you slaves, for the slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard from My Father I have made known to you. (John 15:15)

I am redeemed and forgiven by the blood of Christ.
In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace. (Ephesians 1:7)

I am a new creature in Christ.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. (2 Corinthians 5:17)

I am chosen, holy, and blameless before God.
. . . just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and blameless before Him. (Ephesians 1:4)

God loves me and has chosen me.
. . . knowing, brethren beloved by God, His choice of you. (1 Thessalonians 1:4)

I am God’s workmanship.
For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them. (Ephesians 2:10)

My body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who dwells in me.
Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? . . . Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? (1 Corinthians 3:16; 6:19)

I have been set free in Christ.
It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery. (Galatians 5:1)

I was formerly darkness, but now I am light in the Lord.
. . . you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light. (Ephesians 5:8)

I am a citizen of heaven.
For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. (Philippians 3:20)
