Developing the Self Leader

In this week’s devotion, we will consider author Steve Brown’s (2015) next “bungee” from which we should unhook: believing lies. Have you ever heard this old schoolyard adage?

Sticks and Stones May Break My Bones But Words Will Never Hurt Me

If so, you eventually have recognized that this is an outright lie…typically only spoken by those who’ve been hurt out of some hope of self-protection. Maybe you were called “Stupid,” “Dork,” or “Loser,” or maybe something even more creatively negative. Author Brown points out that these are lies, a sort of modern-day curse. Intentional or not, they may inflict emotional stress or pain. Worse, when experienced repeatedly, they may be believed. When we accept or embrace lies about ourselves, we unintentionally corrupt our understanding of who we are. Not only do we create false images of ourselves, but we may also foster a misunderstanding of God’s view of us. We read in Psalm 139:13-16(new tab), “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. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.” Does that passage describe you in a way that even remotely resembles any of the lies that may have been hurled at you in your childhood, or even in adulthood? Of course not!

Recent research in the field of psychology has shown that “you are what you believe.” Unless we reject the lies we’ve internalized over the course of our lives and instead embrace our true identity as creations of God who are precious in His sight, then we permit those lies to determine what and who we become. Many people go through life failing to realize that their beliefs about themselves have very real effects on their future. Your income, success, health, and who you ultimately become are based entirely on what you believe will happen. Can you see how this also relates to how one would lead themselves, and then how they would lead others?
