James 1:23-25
For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. “But he who looks”into the “perfect law of liberty “ and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.
Your natural mirror will always reflect the image of the object that’s before you. In like manner when you take a look into the mirror of God’s Word,” you will undoubtedly see yourself.
If your natural mirror has a dent, you are likely to see a distorted image of yourself.
But the assurance of God’s mirror will always capture your perfect image as The Lord God sees you.
John 4:24
God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
The image you’re struggling with in the mirror is not the true reflection of you, because the real reflection of you is a Spirit and cannot be seen in a physical mirror. Only God’s Word can revealed that perfect and excellent abilities in Christ. God is a Spirit and you must worship Him with your Spirit.
The reason many are not growing in their faith is the fact that they live on their feelings. Babies in Christ are emotionally unstable, they’re controlled by their mood swings and external triggers or forces. What they see, hear, feel, etc. “They are not controlled by the word of God.”
I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the desires of the flesh. (Galatians 5:16)
The day you start taking the Word of God seriously, and start gazing into the mirror, and not forgetting who you are, all the fear of the unknown, inferiority and superiority complex will leave you for good.
It’s only in God’s mirror that your exact spiritual reflection, which looks exactly like Christ righteousness, that’s life without condemnation is revealed.
“The point is, People who feel condemned will always condemn others.”
From today, begin to walk in the liberty of your true identity, and don’t allow yourself to be entangled with any yoke of slavery again. Amen!
