Combat Low Self-Esteem

Negative experiences in life do cause Christians to suffer low self-esteem. Dealing with trauma, loss – loss of a child, loss of a job, loss of a family, negative thought patterns, previous bad choices, unrealistic goals, body image are a few of those negative experiences. This may be harder even on matured Christians. You may begin to wander and wonder; has God forgotten about me? You may even begin to ask God some questions, God why? Why did this happen to me? Why me and not somebody else? etc.

At times when you are feeling low and inferior to others, you need to dig deep in the word, source out the truth and declare the word of God over your mind. To overcome low self-esteem, fear, anxiety and insecurity, here are some of the best scriptural declarations you need to declare over yourself.
