You were created to live in truth—because truth is what makes you free. When you don’t know who you truly are as a child of God, it becomes easy for the enemy to whisper lies that steal your confidence, your peace, and your hope. That’s exactly how identity theft works in the spiritual realm. If you’re unsure of your identity, the enemy can easily slip in with counterfeit versions of who you are and what you’re worth. But when you stay grounded in God’s truth, those lies become obvious—just like a fake bill in the hands of a trained teller. The more familiar you are with God’s Word, the quicker you’ll recognize what doesn’t belong. If most of your intake is coming from the world instead of from Scripture, you’re setting yourself up for confusion and discouragement. But when you renew your mind daily with the truth of who God says you are, you grow strong, discerning, and unshakeable. Here’s what God says is true about you: You were planned before the world was created. You are a child of the King. You are adopted, accepted, and righteous through Christ. You are an heir with access to every spiritual blessing. You lack no good thing. You have abundance for every good work. You were predestined for success in God’s Kingdom. This is who you really are. So stand tall. Be bold. And live like the King’s child you are—because that’s exactly what you are in Christ.

You were never designed to live in fear. Just like a little child who leaps into their father’s arms without hesitation, you can trust your Heavenly Father to catch you every single time. Children don’t worry about provision or protection—they simply rest in their father’s love. That’s the kind of confidence God wants you to walk in. I know the world gives us plenty of reasons to feel afraid—violence, corruption, storms, uncertainty. But God still says, “Fear not.” Why? Because fear empowers the enemy, but love empowers you. Perfect love—His love—casts out every trace of fear. You are alive in this exact moment of history for a reason. God placed gifts and assignments inside you that the world needs right now. And yes, stepping into those assignments may feel intimidating. But the Father is whispering, “Jump. Trust Me. I won’t let you fall.” You are no longer a slave to fear. You are a child of God, equipped, chosen, and covered by perfect love. So when fear rises, stop and grab hold of a promise. Let His love wash over you. Daddy’s got you—and together, you can do the impossible. Question to Ponder: Where in your life is fear holding you back from stepping into something God has asked you to do—and what promise from His Word can you speak over that fear today?

When you look at the story of Job, it’s important to remember that Job didn’t have what you have today. He wasn’t born again. He didn’t have the covenant promises, the authority in Christ, or the spiritual weapons that belong to every child of God. You, on the other hand, have already been given everything you need for a powerful, godly, victorious life because you belong to Jesus. God has already supplied you with protection, provision, healing, restoration, and authority over the enemy. So instead of letting the enemy push you around—as Job did at first—you get to stand firm, resist him, and watch him run. And just like Job eventually discovered, God is good all the time. He restores, He multiplies, and He loves you extravagantly. You don’t have to settle for less than what Jesus paid for. You can step boldly into your full salvation benefits package—your promises, your authority, and your identity as a born-again child of God. Question to Ponder Where in your life have you been accepting less than what God has promised you—and what step can you take today to start claiming the fullness of your covenant benefits?

As you go through your day, I want you to remember something powerful: you are privileged to know the truth about who God really is. Job didn’t have that advantage. Yes, he worshipped God, but he didn’t understand God’s character. Because he didn’t know that Adam and Eve had handed over their earthly authority to the enemy, Job blamed God for the devil’s attacks. In fact, he wrongly accused God seventy-four different times! And honestly? The enemy still uses the same tactic today. He whispers lies hoping you’ll think God is the One hurting you or withholding from you. That’s why it’s so important to keep reminding yourself of what the Word really says. Unlike Job, you have the full, completed Word of God. You can see God’s goodness, His justice, His protection, and His faithfulness with absolute clarity. God hears you. He is for you. He calls you His friend. And because of Jesus, you have the authority to stand your ground when the enemy tries to steal from you. So today, walk in the confidence of a beloved, favored child of God. God is good. The devil is bad. And truth always exposes the lie. Question to Ponder: Where have I unknowingly believed something about God that doesn’t line up with His true character—and what truth from His Word do I need to replace it with today?

Job admitted it himself: “I uttered what I did not understand.” For much of the book, he spoke about God from a place of confusion and limited revelation—and many believers still build their theology from those confused statements. One of the most repeated is, “The Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away,” which has slipped into our songs, our language, and even how we process tragedy. But Job later repents for those words after encountering God face to face. You now have something Job didn’t: a clear picture of God through Jesus. In John 10:10, Jesus draws the line in the sand—Satan comes to steal, kill, and destroy; Jesus comes to give life, and life more abundantly. If you believe God is the One “taking away,” you won’t resist the enemy or reach out in faith for what God has promised—healing, provision, restoration, protection, and wisdom. You are invited to be wiser than Job: to let go of wrong beliefs about God’s character and anchor your heart in this unshakable truth—God is good, all the time, and He is always for you, never against you. Question to Ponder: Is there an area in your life where you’ve believed “God took this from me”—and how would your faith and prayers change if you saw clearly that God is for you and the enemy is the one who steals?
