War Room Actor Priscilla Shirer tells Christian Women to find Value in Jesus, not Social Media
Evangelist, author, and actress Priscilla Shirer is urging women to avoid seeking their value through their social media profiles and turn to Jesus instead.
โItโs so easy for us as humans to attach our significance and value into things that can so easily fade and are temporal, whether thatโs a job and upward mobility career-wise, or a certain demographic or group of people,โ Shirer toldย The Christian Post.
โWhen those things fade or no longer appreciate, applaud, celebrate, or include us, we can be decimated because weโve attached our significance to those things. So, itโs about re-centering our priority and rooting it in who we are in Christ in the same way.โShe says the first step towards realizing your true value is by knowing how much value God puts in you.
โWe have an inheritance, we are not rejected, we are chosen, we are not unforgivable, nothing weโve done is beyond the mercy and grace of God.
We are forgiven and we are redeemed. All of these things have been given to us, and so we can access them,โย
Shirer encourages people to renew their mind with biblical truth.
โThatโs why God says in the Scriptures, โMeditate on my Wordโ,โ โItโs not just so you can have it memorized; itโs so that your mind will be changed and youโll start living out of a place that is congruent with your identity in Christ instead of the erroneous identity that weโve been cementing, through either word that weโve said to ourselves or words that are being spoken to us from other people.โ
