Do not allow your circumstances to overwhelm you. Remember that you live and move in Christ. You overcome by the blood of Jesus and by his victory over the enemy of our souls. God turns what has been hard and difficult and turns it into a place of upgrade. Expect to see things turn for your favor.
No weapon forged to be used against you will succeed; you will refute everyone who tries to accuse you. This is what the LORD will do for his servants–I will vindicate them,” says the LORD.(Isaiah 54:17 NET)
Bless your haters, pray for them that despitefully hate on you, overcome your haters with LOVE. Don’t rehearse the conversation of the hater, rather redirect them by the conversation of the Haterlover. Haters only hate because of insecurities, Haterlovers only love because of God’s security. Although there may exist a Haters’ Club against you, join the Love Your Haters’ Club, admission: Make sure you’re not hating on yourself.
Love yourself and LOVE THE HATE OUT OF YOUR HATERS!
How many times have we let pride, self exaltation, self absorption or arrogance consume us? We rely on ourselves and think we have to solve all our problems by ourselves, with our hard work. We use our own intellect, resources, and religious formulas. However, we fail to trust God and don’t have a close intimate relationship with him. We become self sufficient and do not depend on God. Worry and anxiety consume us because we forget God and his love. We want the credit when things go well and blame God, when things go poorly. All of this is pride.
Acknowledge God as your source and depend on him. Ask what he wants, listen and obey, rather than taking the glory for yourself. Take the lowest position rather than assuming you deserve all the attention. Trust God, rather than your own understanding and it will go well for you. It is wisdom to humble yourself and let God be God!
The greatest among you will be the one who always serves others. Remember this: If you have a lofty opinion of yourself and seek to be honored, you will be humbled. But if you have a modest opinion of yourself and choose to humble yourself, you will be honored. (Matthew 23:11-12 TPT)
God inhabits the praises of his people. When we are thankful and praise God, our attitude changes, and we have abiding joy! Praise him, before you see the manifestation of God’s answers.
Lift up a great shout of joy to the Lord! Go ahead and do it—everyone, everywhere! As you serve him, be glad and worship him. Sing your way into his presence with joy! And realize what this really means— we have the privilege of worshiping the Lord our God. For he is our Creator and we belong to him. We are the people of his pleasure.[a] You can pass through his open gates with the password of praise. Come right into his presence with thanksgiving. Come bring your thank offering to him and affectionately bless his beautiful name! For the Lord is always good and ready to receive you. He’s so loving that it will amaze you— so kind that it will astound you! And he is famous for his faithfulness toward all. Everyone knows our God can be trusted, for he keeps his promises to every generation! (Psalm 100;1-5 TPT)
Consistent Love doesn’t try to change people, its effects changes hearts Inconsistent love tries to change people, never considering their hearts.
To you who are ready for the truth, I say this: Love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the energies of prayer for that person. If someone slaps you in the face, stand there and take it. If someone grabs your shirt, gift wrap it your best coat and make a present of it. If someone takes unfair advantage of you, use the occasion to practice the servant life. No more tit-for-tat stuff. Live generously.
I tell you, love your enemies. Help and give without expecting a return. You’ll never—I promise—regret it. Live out this God-created identity the way our Father lives toward us, generously and graciously, even when we’re at our worst. Our Father is kind; you be kind. “Don’t pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults— unless, of course, you want the same treatment. Don’t condemn those who are down; that hardness can boomerang. Be easy on people; you’ll find life a lot easier. Give away your life; you’ll find life given back, but not merely given back—given back with bonus and blessing. Giving, not getting, is the way. Generosity begets generosity. (Luke 6:27-38 MSG)
Although many thoughts go through our minds, they are not all good. Some of them come from the flesh, other thoughts from God and some are evil. We do not need to let all thoughts make a nest,in our minds, and dominate our thoughts. Many times we believe lies, make excuses, find false security, and take refuge in them. Out of this faulty way of thinking, we repeat poor behaviors. We justify and want to argue our points.Instead use the powerful weapons of God, to tear down the strongholds or fortresses of negativity, such as worry, pride, and hatred that exalt themselves against God’s truth. We are to take prisoner every thought and make it obey Christ. Then we will live victoriously.
For though we live as human beings, we do not wage war according to human standards, for the weapons of our warfare are not human weapons, but are made powerful by God for tearing down strongholds. We tear down arguments and every arrogant obstacle that is raised up against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive to make it obey Christ. (2 Corinthians 10:3-5 NET)
