When I get dreams or thoughts about being the opposite sex, I have to cast those thoughts down.

Why?

Because that's not who I am. That's not who God created me to be.

I give it to God and let His words define me. Not my feelings or what I think God says about me but what He definitely and directly says about me.

Don't feel bad for me because I do that, I've had more freedom trusting God than I have trusting myself because I make mistakes all the time while He doesn't.

Not all the thoughts that you have are yours, this doesn't make you crazy since everyone gets them.

Despite God healing me and delivering me from gender dysphoria and the trans identity, I still get occasional thoughts and dreams to influence me to go back to that mindset and lifestyle.

I cast these thoughts down and renounce them in the name of Jesus, I don't want anything to do with it because when I had gender dysphoria, I was suffering horribly. It was a torment.

I always hated myself, I hated my body, I hated the thoughts I had. I wanted to run away but...you can't run away from yourself. You will always have you at the end of the day. I had to live with that truth but I didn't understand how to embrace that truth.

God didn't make a mistake when He created me. He created me with intention.

I had a problem with rejection since I was a kid to the point I rejected who God made me to be.

I'm just being honest here.

Most people who struggle with gender dysphoria or the trans identity have a rejection problem. Not everyone but definitely most. The sad thing is that it's considered natural desires. This is correct in the right context.

Natural desires of the flesh are full of every evil deed and it stems from mankind's hearts.

However, the original natural desires in the spiritual realm is according to God's standards and what He says is what it is.

So to God... natural desires are by His standards and to us natural standards are by our standards.

If people are supposed to be trans, why is there a conviction that something isn't right when it comes to embracing trans identities?

Deep down, that little voice saying..."this isn't right." Don't let the louder thoughts from people, you, or the devil cause you to ignore that one thought.

I've come across many people who said they were happy being trans but they have no fulfillment so they continue to bask in what they think will give satisfaction. But it's an endless loop of a high and a crash and it's very uh... sporadic.

But when really giving it to God by trusting Him regardless and surrendering to His love, He gives a firm foundation to stand on and you won't be knocked down by waves and practically drowning.

Getting to know God through Jesus and inviting Him into your life to save you from sin and lead you to do the right thing in His eyes is tough but possible with an end that reaches to a good eternity with no more pain and suffering.

Who we really are is found in God. Not our feelings, not our emotions...not people, not the devil...

Because the devil wants to steal, kill, and destroy everything about you and he will tell a lie regarding who you are. If you don't know the truth, you'll believe anything and go along with it. But we're warned in the Bible not to believe every spirit because not every spirit is from God.

If you don't know God, how can you differentiate the different thoughts that come to your mind or even what's said out loud? I always emphasize getting to know God because He wants us to know who He really is.

There's so many half truths going throughout the world right now but a half truth is still a lie.

Don't you know the devil quotes scriptures too? He just doesn't live accordingly. He tempted Jesus when Jesus was at His weakest and He used scripture out of context so Jesus would fall into temptation and sin. But Jesus knew God, He is God, and He counterattacked the devil with the real meaning of scriptures.

See, the devil cherry picks too and even lies about his own existence. But God wants to give us life more abundantly, He wants us to know Him.

I believe He can and will deliver people from rejection and bring healing into people's lives, especially when they trust Him. Whether you believe you're trans or not or even if you're questioning. Give it to God and stop making your own decisions based on how you feel.

The more you know, the more you can apply to your life. Instead of getting offended or feeling hurt ask questions.

I encourage that because the last thing the devil and people want are for you to ask meaningful questions that point to Jesus being the only way, the only truth, and the only life to get to God the Father. To know God and to know who God really created you to be.
