The enemy is so crafty that he will get people who are being deceived by the media and other influencers - he will get the deceived to stand up and defend the right of those who are deceiving them!

 

Everyone likes affirmation, but what we need is validation. You can be told your a good driver (wether you are or are not) (maybe they are just manipulating you to get a ride to the mall… oh I don’t trust David to drive me… but you’re a great driver) but validation comes from authority. You get a drivers license and you are now validated. Every movement outside of being a Christ follower - in todays world clamors for validation (BLM, LGBQT, Feminism, global warming pick a topic etc…) But they will never get the fathers validation UNTIL THEY KNOW HIM.. so they will forever be mad at those who do not affirm them… because once you have the fathers validation you don’t care who affirms you. 

HERES A T SHIRT IDEA: God loves me… I don’t care if you do.

 

So know that wether someone loves you or not… don’t fall to the lie, do not allow the enemy to deceive you… and don’t clamor for the worlds validation… they can’t give you the real thing. Remember its from the authority… the ultimate authority.

Does it mean something to you when the your enemy says you are no good and of no value… what about if your Mom says you are good… what if Michael Jordan says you are good at something….

What am I getting at? If someone on the opposite team tells you that your jump shot is lacking and you need to try harder… he’s just getting in your head. If your mom says you are such a good basketball shooter… your shooting is so basket bally… ok, its nice but it still does not mean much. If you coach says nice shot… ok now were talking, but if Michael Jordan comes down from the stands after the game and says… I have seen a million jump shots in my lifetime, but you have one of the smoothest strokes, one of the cleanest shots… its fantastic. NOW THATS VALIDATION… I DON’T CARE WHAT ANYONE AFTER THAT SAYS… MJ JUST GAVE ME THE ULTIMATE AUTHORITATIVE COMPLIMENT.

 

Someone once asked me What is your GPA? I was a little embarrassed it wasn’t good - not because Im not smart, but more because I just didn’t care or try in high school… B UT THEN HE ASKED what is your GPA in life? The goal is to be able to answer that honestly… every day and then push harder! AND I GET WHAT HE IS SAYING… AND I AGREE TO THAT POINT… but what if are GPA stood for Gods Passion Applied

Meaning how much he gave to forgive us and how much he loved us.

Once we understand that - and its depth, we stand approved, confident and unmoved by the worlds opinion. 

Eph. 3:16-20 seek to understand Gods unfathomable love for us.
