Discover Your True Self: Session 4 – Shame – You Are Competent

In this sermon from Ephesians 1, the focus is on finding freedom from shame and embracing your true identity in Christ. Shame often causes people to define themselves by past failures or painful experiences, leading them to believe they are worthless or beyond hope. This message confronts that lie with three powerful truths from Scripture. First, believers are reminded of their calling—they belong to God and are secure in Him. Second, they are encouraged to receive their inheritance as joint heirs with Christ, possessing spiritual riches far greater than they often realize. Third, the sermon emphasizes relying on the power of the Holy Spirit, who enables real transformation and victory over sin. Ultimately, the message calls listeners to stop living in shame and instead walk confidently in their identity, worth, and freedom found in Jesus Christ.
