Who told you that you’re not enough? So many people live their entire lives under labels that God never gave them. Somewhere along the way, words were spoken, doubts crept in, and confidence faded. The enemy’s greatest tactic is to whisper lies that distort your identity and distance you from the truth of who God says you are. In this powerful message, Craig Johnson from Lakewood Church reminds us that shame, fear, and insecurity were never part of God’s design. From the Garden of Eden to your life today, God continues to ask, “Who told you that?” Because His Word still speaks louder than any lie. You are not defined by what others have said, by what you’ve done, or by what you’ve lost—you are defined by the voice of your Creator. Craig shares his family’s own journey with their son, Connor, and the choice to believe God’s promises when circumstances said otherwise. It’s a story of faith, perseverance, and rediscovering what’s possible when you see yourself the way God does. When you let go of the false labels and start believing the truth, you’ll find new confidence, peace, and direction for your life. You are not what you feel. You are not what you fear. You are what God says you are: chosen, loved, and capable of great things. 🔍 In This Message, You’ll Learn -- How to recognize and silence the lies that keep you bound in fear or shame -- What it means to see yourself through the lens of God’s perfect love -- Why believing God’s Word over your emotions changes everything -- How daily time in Scripture reshapes your confidence and identity 🕊️ Key Scriptures • Genesis chapter three verse eleven – God’s question to Adam and Eve • First John chapter four verse four – Greater is He that is in you • First John chapter four verse eighteen – Perfect love casts out fear • Second Corinthians chapter twelve verse ten – When I am weak, then I am strong • Ephesians chapter two verse ten – You are His masterpiece • John chapter one verses twenty two through twenty three
