Being Confident

Marvelous Monday to each of you

I hope all is well and that you had a great weekend. Getting right to the word today. The Lord dealt with me on Friday about this marvelous Monday word, so I started putting it together then. The word was established this past weekend, out of the mouths of two.  God is so wonderful in that he confirms His word to us.  Oh....how I love Him!  Getting right to it.......Being confident of this very thing, that he that hath begun a good work in me/us will perform until the day of Jesus Christ.  I am confident meaning,  certain, convinced, and in no doubt that God is true to His word.  He will continue to work on me and on us until His return. Because of this I am self-confident, and sure of who I am. It is only God that can give you this type of assurance.

Isn't it wonderful to know that God is working in us, and that He has not left us alone. He is very concerned about us especially in those moments when we don't feel He is there. The bible said, "the Lord will perfect that which concerns us," because his mercy and loving-kindness endure forever.  We are a work in progress.  We walk knowing that we are somebody in Him.  This is why we can walk in confidence.  Not because of anything that we have done ourselves.  Absolutely no good of our own selves.  We don’t walk around with our heads and noses up in the air, stuck up, and thinking more highly of ourselves than we ought to.   We maintain humility knowing that he/she that humbles themselves in the sight of God will be exalted in due season.  This applies to every area of your life. So, know who you are! You are the image and likeness of God, so that makes you somebody pretty special! That fact right there gives you all the confidence you need.     

Philippians 1:6 Amplified Bible (AMP)

6 And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ [right up to the time of His return], developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you.
