We will have problems in our lives.
When you focus only on the problems and struggles you are giving the devil the victory. Your focus turns to worry, anxiousness, sadness and bitterness.
Over the last week I have really had to work on pulling my thoughts and what ifs back into God. Reminding myself when I focus on Jesus and his promises I find a balance and peace. Telling myself to STOP, REFOCUS and KNOW God does not want me to sit and worry.
Lean into Jesus and find peace
When leaning into God’s word and your relationship with Him you will find strength, support and be restored. He will give the joy, peace and eternal life.
Your heart and thoughts determine your walk in life. Find your heart of Jesus, he will pull you through. 1 Peter 5:10 NLT In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support and strengthen you and he will place you on a firm foundation.
Start Listening to Your Thoughts
The only quit secure place in a noisy world…. God holds my head and shoulders above those who try to pull me down. Psalms 27:5-6 MSG. This my friend also means listen to how you speak or think to yourself. Are your thoughts positive or do you sit in negative and complaining mind?
Let’s start listening to ourselves and surround yourself with people who will lift you up and bring some joy and happiness into your life. Start diving into God’s word and find your strength in scriptures and promises that He will never leave or forsake you.
This week memorize Deuteronomy 31:6 Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or terrified. Do not give them a second thought because God, your God, is striding ahead of you. He’s right there with you. He won’t let you down; he won’t leave you.
Now start believing and leaning into Jesus with your faith.
