Woody and Buzz

James 1
Verse 18 "And we, out of all creation, became his prized possession."

We are the prized possession of God. If you have ever seen the movie Toy Story, then you get a very simple picture of what God thinks about you. We are Woody and Buzz, God loves us more than all his creation, as a human being created in the likeness of God you are his prize possession, he cherishes you above all things. And like in the movie, God wants you with him everywhere he goes, your his favorite.

Many people however don't see them selves that way; condemnation and shame have caused many people to label themselves as black sheep in Gods family. They feel unwanted, unloved and very alone, like the forgotten toy lost under the bed or behind the dresser. But that is not true, You are Gods most prized possession and he longs to be with you, to love you and wrap his arms around you. The fact that you feel unwanted and unloved, have nothing to do with the reality of God's heart for you. Those feelings come from the lies of the enemy and the condemnation that Satan has placed upon you. Feelings are just a reflection of thought, I feel unloved because I think I am unloved. But those feelings of rejection, shame and condemnation are not from God. He said it in his word over and over again, I Love You, You Are My Prized Possession! So crawl out from under the bed, slip out from behind the dresser and watch what God will do. He will pick you up, dust you off and begin to smother you with his love. Renounce the lies of the enemy and embrace the truth of God's Word, you are his prize possession. Go ahead and say it, out loud; I Am God's Prize Possession, I Am His Favorite
