What God's Word Says About You

There's a voice that speaks louder than your worst day, your biggest mistake, and your deepest insecurity — and it's found in Scripture.

We live in a world that is constantly telling us who we are. Social media has an opinion. Our past has an opinion. The critic in our own head definitely has an opinion. And on the hard days, those voices can feel deafening.

But what if we started each morning by anchoring ourselves to something truer? What if, before the noise of the day could get a word in, we let God's Word speak first?

That's the heartbeat behind our newest Bible reading plan and devotional, Women in the Word — a resource designed to help women dig deeper into Scripture, grow in faith, and walk through their days rooted in the truth of who God says they are.

One of the most powerful sections of Women in the Word is a collection of biblical affirmations drawn straight from Scripture. Not feel-good phrases. Not motivational mantras. Real, living, breathing truth from God's Word — the kind that changes how you see yourself when you read it long enough to believe it.

Here's a glimpse at what God's Word actually says about you:

 

I am perfectly loved by God, and nothing can separate me from His love. 

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 NIV

I am chosen by God, and He has great plans for my life.

You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you.

-John 15:16 NIV

I am forgiven, and saved by grace. 

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.

-Ephesians 2:8-9 NIV

I am never alone or abandoned. God is always with me.

So do not fear, for I am with you;

    do not be dismayed, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you and help you;

    I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

-Isaiah 41:10  NIV

I am free from the power of sin, dysfunction, and addiction.

It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

-Galatians 5:1 NIV

I am provided for and taken care of by my heavenly Father.

If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

-Matthew 6:30-33 NIV

I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

For you created my inmost being;

    you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;

    your works are wonderful,

    I know that full well.

-Psalm 139:13-14 NIV

I can endure difficulties, and experience joy in the hardships I face.

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

-James 1:2-4 NIV

I am filled with an unwavering peace that surpasses understanding, and guards my heart and mind. 

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

-Philippians 4:6-7 NIV

I am led by God’s Spirit and empowered by the wisdom of God. 

But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.

-John 16:13 NIV

I am capable of great acts of service, and empowered by God’s Spirit, today I will make a positive impact in someone else’s day. 

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

-Matthew 5:14-16 NIV

I am a part of the family of God, and am a valued part of the Body of Christ. 

From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.

-Ephesians 4:16 NIV
