Lies and counter-truths

I was at the Kris Vallotton ' Spirit Wars' Conference tonight.
He talked about many things, basically outlining the first few chapters of his book, "Spirit Wars".

But what struck me today was his explanation of thoughts, lofty things and speculations. Particularly lofty things. A lofty thing is a a lie, usually a lie that makes us believe our circumstances are bigger than God, or that a lie that makes us feel powerless, helpless and oppressed.

I realized that I've been repeating so many lies to myself internally. No wonder I've been depressed most of the time.

1. Life is not worth living because of the pain of just living.
2. Being joyful is almost impossible 80%of the time because of burden of life
3. My body is not beautiful until it hits a certain percentage of body fat with no flab, and my face is not beautiful unless it has a certain bone structure
4. God is not going to provide my desires, only my basic needs (if that)
5. Something bad might happen to me anytime and God is not going to protect me because He can't be trusted (he can do whatever he wants, and he might not want to protect me)
6. My work visa situation is left to uncaring government officials and indifferent people who offer to help but not necessarily want to or are able to, and God is leaving me to struggle on my own
7. I am inadequate in my skills and motivations, and I am never going to be good enough for my career/calling
8. I'll never be totally satisfied emotionally in my life
9. A great marriage full of love and purpose (with a life partner that is your best friend and compatible with you in the area of calling, ministry, intelligence and social background) is almost impossible
10. I have to work all the time, if not I'm lazy and God will hold me accountable for 'wasting' time 
11. God has left me to blunder my way around
12. I am on my own and I am precious to no one, not even God, who seems to have left me on my own to struggle and blunder my way around. 

Well..the list goes on.  This is not the end.  I will spend some time these few days just challenging these lies with the truth head on. 

Life is worth living because God is good. And I am a precious daughter and He will always lead me and guide me along the path He has called me to.

*Update

I have decided to counter each lie individually.

1. Life is worth living. God gave me my life and He came to give me abundant life. 
2. Being joyful is a choice. I can choose to control my thoughts with the help of the Holy Spirit (joy is a fruit of the Spirit). His yoke is easy and light. Not heavy to the point of rank exhaustion.
3. God made everyone different, we all come in different shapes and sizes. As long as we are living a healthy lifestyle and treating our bodies with respect (because it is the temple of the Holy Spirit), we are beautiful just as we are. 
4. Desire fulfilled is a tree of life (Pro 13:12) Take delight in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart (Psalms 37:4)
5. He will cover you with His feathers. He will shelter you with his wings. His faithful promises are your armor and protection (Ps 91:4)
6. In this world you will have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world (John 16:33b)
7. His grace is sufficient for me. His strength is made perfect in my weaknesses.
8. He is the God who "satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's" (Psalms 103:5)
9. With man, this is impossible, but with God all things are possible
10. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light (Matt 11:30)
11. Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path (Ps 119:105)
12. Behold, I am with you always, till the end of the age (Matt 28:20)
