A Damaged Image Has to Go

November 6, 2024

Today’s Scripture

“But Lord,” Gideon replied, “how can I rescue Israel? My clan is the weakest in the whole tribe of Manasseh, and I am the least in my entire family!”

Judges 6:15, NLT

Today’s Word

Too often we don’t realize that our self-image has been damaged. We’ve been through hurts and disappointments and made mistakes, then we wonder why we can’t rise higher. It’s similar to what happened with Gideon. When an angel showed up and said, “Mighty hero, the Lord is with you,” he was afraid and hiding from the enemy. Gideon’s image was “least one, poorest, defeated, can’t do anything great.” God’s image was “mighty hero, fearless courage, history maker.” Here’s the key: You can’t keep your damaged image and have God’s, too. You have to give God your image. Let Him control how you see yourself—not the media, not your family, not your job, not your critics. God knows what’s in you. He will help you become what you want to be. Is a wrong image keeping you from your greatness? Have you believed lies such as, “You’re too old, too young, not smart enough, not gifted”? That’s okay. You’re right where Gideon was. You can still become a mighty hero. Give God your image. See yourself the way He sees you.

Prayer For Today

“Father, thank You for the call to get my hopes up, to start expecting things to change, to wake up what You put in me. Thank You that I am not limited by my past, by dysfunction passed down through my family, or by what others have said about me. I believe that You are going to help me rise up and be a mighty hero. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
