come!” (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Your old natural sin nature is supernaturally changed into a new divine nature (2 Peter 1:3-4). A consequence of this new identity is a new worth based on the abundant resources placed into your personal account. A second consequence is a new destination throughout eternity, where you will forever be secure in the presence of God.
Precious one, how God desires that you will receive all that He provides! The struggle with low-self-worth can be replaced with godly self-worth when you are in Christ. But in order for you to have the characteristics of Christ, you must be in a different family.
Has that change become a reality for you? If not, on the authority of the Word of God, you can become a child of God. The Bible says, “To all who received him [Jesus], to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God” (John 1:12).
If you desire this new relationship with God through Christ, you can pray this prayer:
God, I want a real relationship with You. I admit, many times I have chosen wrong. I know I’ve sinned, and I’m asking You to forgive me for my sins. I now want to become a child of God. Jesus, thank You for dying on the cross for my sins — for shedding Your blood on the cross to pay the price I should have paid.
Come into my life to be my Lord and my Savior. I yield my will to Your will. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for forgiving me. Thank You for giving me the free gift of eternal life. Lord, make me the person You created me to be. In Your holy name I pray, Amen.
If you sincerely prayed that prayer in true humility, you can thank God for His heart’s desire to move you into a new family— His family. How extraordinary—every child of God genuinely has a new worth, a new destination, and a new identity! Now you can begin to see yourself through God’s eyes!
