272 || [Solo] The Two Must-Have Truths You Need to Shut Down Imposter Syndrome || Merritt Onsa

Is there a “cure” for imposter syndrome?

It’s easy to recognize the impact of imposter syndrome on a dream you haven’t had the courage to step into. The voice of imposter syndrome will suggest to you that it’s not the right time, you’re not the right person, you’re not ready to do this, or that it’s already been done. Obviously, without any intervention, thoughts like these would keep anyone stuck and their dream hidden.  

IF IMPOSTER SYNDROME HAS THREATENED YOUR DREAM, THIS IS THE EPISODE FOR YOU!

You might be surprised to learn that imposter syndrome also threatens dreamers who have already launched their dreams. From the outside looking in, she appears successful, confident and like she knows what she’s doing! But her experience with imposter syndrome could be even worse than a dreamer who’s just starting out.

Just because you took a step doesn’t mean you won’t face discouragement. Imposter syndrome will sabotage your motivation, convince you that you’re unqualified for this, especially if it’s going slower than expected or there’s a rocky path on the journey.

Taking a step toward your dream puts a bullseye on your back that the enemy cannot ignore. That’s why is so important to equip yourself with the truth of God’s Word and implement supportive action that will help you prepare to fight back when imposter syndrome comes again.

In this solo episode you’ll learn:

  • How to identify imposter syndrome in yourself,

  • That imposter syndrome is far more common than you realize, even in people who are further ahead than you, and

  • About the transformation that’s possible once you establish your imposter syndrome defense firmly in Scripture.

Scripture:

For you created my inmost being;
    you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,
    I know that full well.

~ Psalm 139:13-14 (NIV)

 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
~ Matthew 7:11 (NIV)

A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other. To one person the Spirit gives the ability to give wise advice; to another the same Spirit gives a message of special knowledge. The same Spirit gives great faith to another, and to someone else the one Spirit gives the gift of healing. He gives one person the power to perform miracles, and another the ability to prophesy. He gives someone else the ability to discern whether a message is from the Spirit of God or from another spirit. Still another person is given the ability to speak in unknown languages, while another is given the ability to interpret what is being said. It is the one and only Spirit who distributes all these gifts. He alone decides which gift each person should have.
~ 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 (NLT)

God’s marvelous grace imparts to each one of us varying gifts. So if God has given you the grace-gift of prophecy, activate your gift by using the proportion of faith you have to prophesy. If your grace-gift is serving, then thrive in serving others well. If you have the grace-gift of teaching, then be actively teaching and training others. If you have the grace-gift of encouragement, then use it often to encourage others. If you have the grace-gift of giving to meet the needs of others, then may you prosper in your generosity without any fanfare. If you have the gift of leadership, be passionate about your leadership. And if you have the gift of showing compassion, then flourish in your cheerful display of compassion.
~ Romans 12:6-8 (TPT)

For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
~ Hebrews 4:12 (ESV)
