Feed Your Faith; Starve Your Doubts 
We have many opportunities each day to worry and live in fear -- from being worried about the economy and our health, to our family and children -- the list could go on and on!
But did you know faith and fear have something in common? They both ask us to believe something is going to happen that we cannot see.
Fear says, "Business is terrible. You're going to go under." But faith says, "the blessing of the Lord is still out in front of you." When we give in to thoughts of fear, our perspective of God's favor and blessing becomes distorted. The spirit of fear will try to bring us down, and stress us out. It can make things "look" extremely intimidating, but we "walk by faith" not by sight.
Use your energy to believe and not worry. Our God is all-powerful. He has brought you through in the past, and He is going to bring you through in the future. Surround yourself with people of faith who will speak victory into your life. If you'll be disciplined in your thought life and learn to choose faith instead of fear, you're going be filled with a constant peace and confidence.
You were created for a life of victory. Choose to live by faith today. Remember, it takes the same amount of energy to worry as it does to have faith. Switch your gears to having faith and trusting God!
"The Lord is my strength and my song; He has given me victory" (Psalm 118:14, NLT). |
Set-up For A Comeback 
Life is full of things that try to push us down. We all face disappointments and setbacks. Maybe you got some bad news concerning your health or maybe a business opportunity didn't work out. Maybe you're depressed and stressed out about family issues, world economy, and bad news reports. These can set you back and take away your hope.
It's easy to get discouraged or lose your enthusiasm, or even be tempted to just settle for where you are. But if we're going to see God's best, we have to have a "bounce back" attitude. That means when you get knocked down, you don't stay down. You get back up again. You have to know that every time "the enemy" comes against you, the Lord will make a way for your comeback!
Remember, as a believer, the same power that raised Christ from the dead lives on the inside of you. There is no challenge too difficult, no obstacle too high, no sickness, no disappointment, no person, nothing that can keep you from your God-given destiny. If you stay in faith, then God will turn what was meant to be a defeat into a triumph -- and you'll move forward as a champion full of faith and victory!
"For though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again..." (Proverbs 24:16a, NIV).
"All things are possible to anyone who believes!" (Mark 9:23)
"Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ . . ."
(2 Corinthians 2:14) |
