Just Another Day
Life brings many ups and downs and throughout this journey we have to remember that God said that we are more than conquerors! The Apostle, Paul left it on record in the new testament time and time again. He would always write to encourage the Gentiles that no matter how sour the situation looked, no matter how troubling it appeared, no matter what the outcome looked like, Paul chose to see the good instead of the bad!
Take your cue from Paul today and remember to look at your situation from a different perspective. Death and Life are in the power of the tongue so remember that we frame our world by the words we speak. Many of us have cursed ourselves and everything that we touch because we are so negative and the negativity breeds contempt, so on and so forth. This leads to many of the hurdles and obstacles that have manifested in front of you. It's amazing because sometimes we blame the devil on our situation when it's really us, oftentimes its the man in the mirror who has caused the road to get rocky, not the devil, not your enemy, not your family and not even your spouse or children. YOU!
Let that sink in today and remember, before you open your mouth, decide within yourself that you are going to speak words of life and be uplifting to others. Make a decision to change the atmosphere when you walk in a room. A thought to ask yourself for your personal provocation, "Does the conversation change when you walk in a room? If so, is it for the good or the bad?" This is a question to cause you to think because we have to be mindful of our authority as children of God. God made us the head and not the tail, He said we were to operate ABOVE and not beneath. He said that before we were formed in the womb, HE knew us, ordained us and sanctified us so my question to you is, "why are you tripping?"
It's just another day, go through it and learn from it, glean from it, mature and become who God ordained you to be. If not today, when?
Now this is real talk...
