Smack Em’ Down

Jun6

Every day we are bombarded with thoughts. They can be either positive or negative. When we find ourselves drained of energy or circling the same issues over and over again, we are focusing on the wrong side of the equation and leaving God out of it.

We live in a fallen world tainted by sin, lust, evil, sickness, disease, anger and greed. The world wants what others have. They want their cake and eat it too. And many are willing to do whatever it takes to acquire success or fame.

Those of us in Christ need to focus on Him and Him alone. He is always with us whether we see Him or not. He is always fighting our battles even when we don’t see the circumstances change. When we get anxious or fearful it’s usually because our focus is on our wants and needs; on future things. But today is a gift. A gift from our Heavenly Father. It’s a day where we get to worship Him while unwrapping the day He’s giving us. Each day we get to see it unfold into something new.

See Him in every situation and every moment. It might be a bird, a song, a smile, a person or an unexpected present. Whatever God places into your life today, see the little things in a new light. His light!

Be focused today. Smack down the negative thoughts and keep your focus on Him. He has an amazing future for you and each day that unfolds will become more amazing when you see the little gifts along the way. He has you covered and you’re never alone. He will fulfill all your needs and desires. Keep believing and you will become all God wishes you to become, in His perfect way and His perfect timing!

Shake Off The Doubt

May14

Breaking ChainesToday’s powerful word that coincides with today’s major Biblical event!

It’s time to shake off all doubt!

Are you doubting that your circumstances won’t change, or your family won’t turn back to God, or your finances won’t grow, or your health won’t be restored?

All of us have found ourselves going through a very long drought season. Well today kicks off our changing season and it’s time to kick the doubt habit to the curb.

Whatever situation or circumstance you find yourself in today…TODAY IS A NEW DAY and GOD’S MIGHTY HAND IS SHOWING IN A BIG WAY!

God is very specific about letting our problems get a hold of us to the point of doubting Him. There are two ways to live our lives. One in the “doubting Thomas” mindset or one in the “all things are possible to those who believe” mindset. When we doubt, we are being double minded. God said he gives us the power to choose life or death; therefore choose life. (Deuteronomy 30:19-20) He also has made it quite clear that when we doubt, we are setting ourselves up for failure.

James 1:6-7: “But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord.”

Basically when we doubt, we are telling God that our problems are larger than He is. He’s the creator of the universe and you are in the palm of His mighty hand. There’s absolutely no way our problems are ever larger than He is!

Today God showed us that His word is truth. Therefore all of the Bible is true! We must become more childlike, stop analyzing everything to death and stop all the doubting thoughts that plague our mind. Replace your thoughts with the Word of God and make it a daily habit to thank Him every morning with praise!

  • When your pain won’t subside … say “by His stripes I am healed!”
  • When you think your circumstances won’t change … say “I am more than a conqueror through Christ!”
  • When your finances dry up and you don’t have enough … say “My God shall supply all my needs according to His riches and glory!”

Things might have taken longer than expected and you might find yourself frustrated right now. But that’s okay! God completely understands. Right now, ask Him for His forgiveness and choose life and life more abundantly over every doubt, over every fear, over every pain.

You are not going to stay where you are right now in life. Capture this amazing moment in time. You have a tremendous life ahead of you and nothing, and I do mean nothing, can hold God’s promises back from being completed in your life! God is in control and your victory is being released in mighty ways! Stay the course and become a doubt buster today!

VICTORY IS YOURS ~ JUST BELIEVE!

You Can and Will

Jun20

Everyday people are tormenting themselves by thinking:

I Can’t change
I Can’t believe
I Can’t get over this sickness
I Can’t go on
I Can’t forgive
I Can’t pay my bills
I Can’t get a job and so on.

What we must realize is that this mentality and attitude sets you up to fail, to quit, and to live a negative, defeated life.  It is a very poisonous mindset that we must overcome in order to see victory within our lives.

The Bible has so many wonderful scriptures that deal with this mindset.  When you start thinking “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13) or “Oh Lord my God, I cried to You and You healed me.” (Psalm 30:2); you will begin to notice changes in your life.

The most important thing we can do, is stand firm in His word and have faith that he will change our circumstances.  For in Ephesians 3:20 it says “He is able to do exceedingly abundantly above and beyond all we can ask or think“, so why in the world we would allow the dreaded “I Can’t” Syndrome rule in our lives.  “I Can’t” should not be in our vocabulary.

We serve a BIG GOD and he wants us to have more than enough to spare and share.  Why do you think one of God’s names in the Bible is El Shaddai?  It means more than enough!  I don’t think that would be coincidental, do you?

The best thing we can do to over come this negative mindset is set our eyes above.  “For my God shall supply ALL your needs according to His riches.” (Philippians 4:19)  There is absolutely no question that God has you covered, no matter what the circumstance looks like.  You may not be in an ideal situation right now but you have an amazing God who guarantees that you are VICTORIOUS and A CONQUEROR through Christ!

So, Stand Up and Shake It Off

SAY…I CAN!  Watch Me!
