Are You Speaking Against Yourself? 😲
Are You Speaking Against Yourself? 😲
Whoever is speaking against you today, know this:
God is for you!
Now that’s a powerful way to start the day! 🔥
It doesn’t even have to be other people speaking against us. Unfortunately, we’re pretty good at doing it ourselves…
We might think, “ugh, how am I supposed to get everything done today?” first thing in the morning. Or, “man, I’m so tired of my job”. Or we might take a look in the mirror and think negatively about how we look.
Do you realize that you’re actually feeding your own frustration?
But the Bible says, “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” (Isaiah 26:3)
This is a complete, all-encompassing peace. Not just for “one little area” of your life, but for all of them—even as you are hoping for a solution to the conflict in your family, or waiting for a health issue to get better.
“You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” (Isaiah 26:3)
God wants us to focus on TODAY, because He has given us an assignment for TODAY.
Don’t let the enemy take that away from you…
The enemy wants to make us feel like we’ve already lost. Because if he can get us to give up, he has taken out someone through whom Christ could have worked.
And when we feed our frustration, it multiplies very quickly. I’m sure I don’t need to explain that any further, because we’ve all been there…
The harder, and much more important, thing is learning to speak this over every frustration:
“You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” (Isaiah 26:3)
Peace is not the absence of problems, but the presence of trust. ❤️
Peace is when your thoughts no longer control you.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to finally get there?
Ask God for it:
“Lord, please give me Your peace. I’m putting up a stop sign in front of my thoughts. I want to hold firmly to You and trust in You alone.”
Whoever is speaking against you today—even if it’s YOU(!)—God is for you!
You are a miracle!
