If you have negative or fearful thoughts, it is time to have another thought. Too often, we fail to recognize, where the thoughts that go through our mind, originate. The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy but Jesus comes to give us life, more abundantly. (John 10:10)
Change your thoughts from negativity, to meditating on how Jesus has won the victory, for us, through his blood, death and resurrection. His victory is our victory. When fear, doubt and unbelief come knocking on your heart or your mind, will and emotions, recognize it and take all these thoughts captive, through Christ Jesus.
Humble yourself, under God’s authority. Tell negativity and fear to leave you. Praise Jesus, for his precious blood, that makes you right with God! Express thankfulness for his more abundant life.
Submit therefore to God and stand against Satan, and he will flee from you. (James 4:7 ABPE)
You are called and empowered, to live by FAITH, not by your circumstances, expectations of others, emotions, or your surroundings. Jesus has justified you and YOU LIVE BY FAITH! So by FAITH, YOU ALREADY HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED TODAY!
You can always trust that if Yahweh God gave you a promise, he will fulfill it. It does not matter how insurmountable the odds against you seem. If God has assured you that it will happen, it will. Think on these promises and rehearse them, with anticipation. Confidently, rest in Yahweh, as you wait!
“Now behold, today I am going the way of all the earth, and you know in all your hearts and in all your souls that not one word of all the good words which the LORD your God has promised concerning you has failed; all have been fulfilled for you, not one of them has failed. (Joshua 2314 AMP)
I AM fashioning you into my likeness. Do not resist the process. Although it may seem painful as my knife cuts off parts that impede my beauty in you, embrace it. I am chiseling, sanding, polishing and fashioning you, to uniquely show my light to others, who do not know me. Embrace the process because others will no longer see you but the Anointed One shining out of you. Enjoy my masterful touch on your life, as it is bringing rich beauty.
Yet, O Lord, You are our Father; we are the clay, and You our Potter, and we all are the work of Your hand. (Isaiah 64:8 AMPC)
We must be careful about the things we say because the enemy cannot act on it, until we speak it; giving him permission to bring it to pass. All this time he’s just been waiting for an entrance, an invitation to come in by our words, unless we keep worshiping and saying Yahweh directed words!
Do you ever limit God in your life? Many times we close ourselves to going to deeper in relationship to God because we base our opinion on our limited experience and how we interpret the Word of God.
Peter was one of the original disciples. He had many wonderful experiences with Jesus but was still limited by how he saw things. Jesus knew he was going to give up his life and got a basin of water and a towel to wash and dry his disciples’s feet. When Jesus came to Peter, he refused to have his feet washed because Jesus was his Lord. Then Jesus told Peter he would not be able to share life with him, unless he let him wash his feet. Peter then wanted to have his head and hands washed and allowed Jesus to wash his feet. He left pride behind and humbled himself. The same evening, Peter did not want Jesus to die and said he would take Jesus’ place. Jesus told Peter he would deny him three times before the rooster crowed. Peter went on his own strength and interpretation and denied Jesus three times. He later saw the truth of what Jesus said and repented.
God tells us to drop our preconceptions, our own ideas, and to listen to him. Holy Spirit lives inside of believers in Jesus and will lead us into all truth, as we yield to him. Let God give the truth to us no matter what it does to your preconceptions. Holy Spirit, show me the truth of the Word of God!
Now Jesus was fully aware that the Father had placed all things under his control, for he had come from God and was about to go back to be with him. So he got up from the meal and took off his outer robe, and took a towel and wrapped it around his waist. Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ dirty feet and dry them with his towel. But when Jesus got to Simon Peter, he objected and said, “I can’t let you wash my dirty feet—you’re my Lord!” Jesus replied, “You don’t understand yet the meaning of what I’m doing, but soon it will be clear to you.” Peter looked at Jesus and said, “You’ll never wash my dirty feet—never!”
“But Peter, if you don’t allow me to wash your feet,” Jesus responded, “then you will not be able to share life with me.” So Peter said, “Lord, in that case, don’t just wash my feet, wash my hands and my head too!” Jesus said to him, “You are already clean. You’ve been washed completely and you just need your feet to be cleansed—but that can’t be said of all of you.” For Jesus knew which one was about to betray him, and that’s why he told them that not all of them were clean. (John 13:3-10 TPT)
You are attracted to gold, created for the gold, because you are Gold. It’s worth it, going through the fire, because we come out as Pure Gold!
I loose the Holy Spirit in you, to highlight the gold in you. Live out of the treasure that’s within, not from the treasures of the world. You are God’s treasure, you are Gold!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ever felt like quitting? Weary and without strength? Wait, trust and depend on the LORD and he will renew your strength and help you continue. The race does not go to those who start quickly but to the one who finishes. Even if you fall down, get up in the power of God and keep going. Never give up! Your faith and trust in God brings great rewards.
So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. (Galatians 6:9 NLT)
But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. (Isaiah 40:31 NLT)
