What is the Benefit of this List?
Satan is a liar and the father of it. He deceives the nations and 
deceives Christians into thinking his lies are true. He is the accuser 
of the brethren, who accuses us before the throne of God. Zechariah 3 
depicts the scene before the throne of God where the saint stands in 
tattered garments and Satan at his right hand making incessant 
accusations against him. The Lord steps in by commanding the angel of 
the Lord to clothe him in new garments clean and white, to put on him a 
turban. And the Lord declared: 

"I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you 
with change of raiment."

The Revelation of Jesus Christ declares (Revelation 3:5, Revelation 
3:18, Revelation 4:4) that the saints are clothed in white raiment that 
the shame of their nakedness does not appear. 

· Revelation 3:5  He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white 
raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I 
will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

· Revelation 3:18  I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, 
that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be 
clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint 
thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

· Revelation 4:4  And round about the throne were four and twenty seats: 
and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in 
white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.

· Revelation 12:10 declares that "the accuser of our brothers is cast 
down, who accused them before the throne day and night." 

· Romans 8 is even more emphatic when it says, "Who shall lay anything to 
the charge of God’s elect? It is God that justifies. Who is he that 
condemns? It is Christ who died, rose again, and sits at the right hand 
of God making intercession for us." 

Stop Believing Lies!
Too often believers believe the lies and accusations of the enemy. They 
either are ignorant of what God has said or they willingly disbelieve it 
based on their "feelings." We do not need to feel anything! God’s truth 
is God’s truth. "Let God be true and every man a liar." (Romans 3:4 ) 

Reckon It To Be So
We need to learn who we are in Christ and confess the same out loud. I 
am what God says I am regardless of how I feel about myself. My feelings 
cannot change the absolute truth of God’s word. We need to see ourselves 
in the light of God’s word. Once we have heard and seen God’s truth we 
are to RECKON it to be so. "Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be 
dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord." 
– Romans 6:11 The word reckon is  "logizomai" in Greek, which means to 
calculate, count it up, logically sum it up as so. Sum up what God says 
as true and leave the rest.

Therefore...
I am what God says I am, not what I feel, and not what others think. Let 
God be true and every man a liar. Use this list as a coach for your heart 
during your prayer times. It is especially helpful when you are putting on 
the whole armor of God. Read it out loud. Let the devil hear your declaration. 
(He cannot read your thoughts you know.) Jesus said out loud, "Get 
thee behind me Satan!" How much more should we say it out loud.

Practical Use
Make these lists into 3x5 cards. (I Am, I Am God's, I Have Been, I Can, I Have)
Put it into you pocket or purse for regular review and daily declaration. 
Make it so familiar that you eat, sleep and drink, the reality of who you 
are in Christ.
