A Review of Beth Moore’s So Long Insecurity Simulcast
Posted April 27th, 2010 @ 9:31 am by | | PrintFiled Under Latest News
Three cheers and praise the Lord for the outstanding success of Beth Moore’s So Long Insecurity Simulcast this past weekend. We’re so thrilled to celebrate the work God continues to do through Beth.
Our friend, April Pressley, was among the 300,000 women from 869 churches who participated, and she has been gracious to share a recap of what she experienced. I’ve also included an interview with Beth about the book.
My Reflections on the So Long Insecurity Simulcast
with Beth Moore
by April Pressley
Beth taught from Ephesians 4 to tell us that a secure woman is:
SAVED from herself
- Insecurity is not a weakness, but rather an unbelief that we are who God says we are.
- We are saved from our narcissistic tendencies by recognizing the power of the cross and the new identity we receive from our salvation experience.
ENTITLED to truth
- Victory and defeat lie in the recesses of our mind.
- We must be proactive in understanding, meditating, memorizing and applying the truth of God’s Word.
CLOTHED with intention
- Open your ears to our Father and recognize your individual, unique callings.
- We overcome insecurity by making a deliberate choice to embrace the new creation we have become through Christ.
UPENDED by grace
- Grace takes up space in a secure woman.
- We should grace people like God graces us.
- We have to be forgiving to be secure.
REBOUNDED by love
- Live like the dearly loved child of God you are.
- A heart that does not heal hardens.
- If we don’t love, we gain nothing.
EXCEPTIONAL in life
- We must remember what we have been taught by God.
- You can allow the culture to get to you or let Jesus take over you.
The event reminded me of 1Peter 1:6-7.
You rejoice in this, though for a short time you have to be distressed by various trials so that the genuineness of your faith – more valuable than gold, which perishes through refined by fire – may result in praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
I learned that being secure is a choice. God will use this struggle to refine us and make us more genuine in our faith. It may seem uncomfortable to deal with insecurity. This is especially true when it’s hard to identify where insecurity comes from, but working through the pain allows us to become women who are secure and righteously confident. It seems too simple really. But doesn’t salvation itself seem too simple? Yet, somehow the choice changes us forever. If we believe in Him, then we can also believe that we are capable of living without the burden of insecurity for the rest of our lives.
