Let God be your source of validation.

It is important to let God be your validation. Seeking man for validation or allowing man to become your sole and primary source of validation can kill you. Yes, either way you may be thinking about it spiritually or naturally.

To Validate something means to make valid, substantiate to confirm. How can a person or an object be completely considered validated or confirmed by someone or something that did not make it. It would be pointless and make their validation vain because man did not make you. God, Jehovah Jireh, Yahweh has made you so therefore He can be your only true source of validation.

People can change all the time, one minute they love you and the next they hate you. If you place your validation and who you are and how you feel about yourself in people, you will become  unstable. Instability breeds instability.
But God is the same yesterday and today and forever (Hebrews 13: 8). God is not like man. He validates you through Him, who is constant and loving. 

I would rather a foundation like that so that when the enemy comes to attack, with insecurities and doubt, about yourself and your future. You already know what God said and everything that is contrary is a lie.
There is a reason why God shares everything in His word that He did. He knew what would apply to every and, any situation, season or time because He is just that awesome. He did not have to make a 1,001 volume series to the Bible to suffice the needs of man in relation to the Bible. He placed everything there, all the answers just for us, via Him.


Seek God with your whole heart and you will find him (Jeremiah 29:13). If we fervently seek God to find Him, to be close to Him and in His presence, we will not waste are energy on seeking approval from others. Lean on God. He is the answer to everything.


Galatians 1: 10 " For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ" 

2 Timothy 2: 15 " Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."
