Dont Look At Yourself Through Their Eyes PDF Download

“Do you see what I see?” is a book designed to reveal the principles of Godly wisdom needed to establish, maintain and guard our self esteem. We are made in the image of God; so male or female we are beautiful inside and out. The word of God say’s in Psalm 50:2, “From Zion, perfect in beauty God shines forth.” (KJV) This is a classic description of self esteem established from biblical principles. This does not come from a manual of intellectual rules. The book speaks to readers about our mind, our heart, the principles, and the foundation on which we build our self esteem. The book also explains the difference between authentic and camouflaged self esteem, men who suffer from low self esteem and walking in the beauty of godly self esteem. Believe it or not there are women in the Body of Christ who are suffering from low self esteem. They come to church Sunday after Sunday dressed up, flawless make-up, hair flowing or stacked and inside they have no idea who they really are because there is so much pain and torment. The outward appearance is dressed up to hide what is on the inside. But the devil is a liar, what is outside should just be an enhancement of the beauty that is on the inside of them. The two must link up; the inside and outside have to connect in order to walk in the truth of God given self esteem. Self esteem is the inner strength, confidence, and beauty that we possess as human beings. It is not arrogant or haughty it is powerful. The enemy wants to take this from you. The bible says, the thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). The enemy hates God’s children, and the self esteem that reflects the glory of Jesus Christ blinds him from seeing and getting a shot to destroy it. The building up of self esteem starts in the mind. When a woman looks into the mirror, if she likes what she sees then her thoughts register and it is displayed outwardly. If she doesn’t like what she sees, she first analyzes if it is something she can quickly fix; such as a small flaw. Anything beyond her immediate control causes her to develop a complex which begins to develop in her subconscious mind and travels to her heart. This is the plan of the enemy leading to the destruction of her self esteem. The enemy seeks to devour our self esteem. His mission is to attack us with low self esteem in order to entangle us and hold us captive. He plays tricks with our minds to try to make us believe his lies. It is imperative that we do not come into agreement with him. Our mind and our thoughts must be subject to the Lord Jesus Christ. We have the power to command every thought that comes in our mind to be subject to Jesus Christ. We have to guard our hearts. God tells us in His word to guard our hearts for out of it springs the issues of life. (Proverbs 4:23). In other words it is what is in our hearts that show people who we really are. This is why we must be hidden in Christ; our place of refuge. He will keep us in His care so that who He say’s we are, will reflect to those who see us. As long as we walk this earth we will have enemies. King David was a giant killer. He defeated his enemies because the confidence inside of him came from God. The more confident we become, the more the enemy will try to destroy our self esteem. However, we already have power over him and his tactics so there is no need to fear him. In order to be all that God has created us to be we must build our self esteem on His foundation, it is a sure and eternal foundation. Self Esteem established by God is authentic. There used to be a saying, “Is it live or is it Memorex?” Is the sound of what we hear live, real, is it recorded, or is it someone else’s voice? Camouflaged self esteem is derived from someone else’s voice. Authentic self esteem is eccentric. Its beauty is exuberant. The principles of godly self esteem are not gender specific. God created men in His image and beauty so that same truth applies to men
