- If you started this year with many of us on a 21 day fast, then let me encourage you to finish strong…this is the final week.
- I has been all about making God FIRST!
- Making your spiritual life a priority.
- If you are going to thrive spiritually, then it begins with your thoughts.
- What negative thoughts have you allowed?
- This verse says that we are to take every thought captive.
- Take captive thoughts of lack, thoughts that say, "Impossible", thoughts that say you are not good enough, thoughts of condemnation and guilt that dwell on past failures...
- Take them Captive ...Seize them...and throw them out!
- Get rid of every negative thought.
- Psalm 139:14 says that we are to Praise God "for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it."
- There is nothing about you that is an accident.
- There is no past they he cannot redeem.
- There is no failure so great that He cannot restore.
- We serve a Healing God, and a Transforming God.
- 2 Cor. 5:17 says, "that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!"
- He wants to take that Old and make it New!
- If you keep thinking of your past failure then you will become a failure.
- If you keep reminding yourself of your Past then you will live in your past and never get out of it.
- So, today, take every single negative and defeated thought and redeem it.
- Throw out the Old and Put on the New!
- Choose to dwell on Gods love for you!
- Choose to focus on being an Overcomer!
- Choose to dwell on being More than a Conqueror.
- Let me remind you that you have a God, "Who forgives [every one of] all your iniquities, Who heals [each one of] all your diseases, Who redeems your life from the pit and corruption, Who beautifies, dignifies, and crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercy! (Psalm 103:3, 4)
- Memorize those verses, dwell on those scriptures and internalize them.
- Take those thoughts captive and choose to dwell on Gods best!
- You have an exciting and blessed year ahead of you!
- Have a great Tuesday!
