Faith

Choose the Things that can Help you and not those that can Destroy you

There are times when you pray for breakthroughs to come into your life. You want to change and grow in whatever endeavor you are involved in. However, you seem to notice that you are doing your best, yet nothing is happening. Not all your efforts will pay off unless there are changes that you need to make. It may be changes in the way you do or think of things. Sometimes, there is something that is holding you back from accomplishing your goals and plans. You may notice that you have similar struggles with other people, but you use different weapons. It may be because they are facing their struggles with firm faithfulness, courage, and a victorious mind while you are listening to your fears. 

Fear is a normal feeling. It is where courage is built. But if it is not handled well, it could lead to something worse. Remember that you are not defined by it. Do not let fear be your lens when doing what God intended you to do. Fear only doubts, but courage leads to victory. Remember, what you feed in your mind and heart attracts either good or bad. So, rather than thinking of fear, stick to the idea of courage. Pull down the thoughts that won’t help you in any way. Consider the views that attract God’s favor, blessings, and wisdom. 

Your situation may be saying something opposite to what you are feeling. Maybe the people you are with right now pushed patience and ego. But remember, never let your feelings dictate your response. You cannot overcome problems with piles of fear and tears. Instead, choose the weapon that you need. Choose to follow  His ways of doing and solving things. Stay faithful, courageous and victorious. The God living in you is the God of great and mighty things. He is helping you with what you are facing. 

Your thoughts are powerful. They control and can dictate your action and response. You may not have control of everything, but you can always think of good thoughts. The human mind may be complicated, but there are great things that it can do. Think of the favor that He let you experience to learn the things that no one else can teach you. Think of what is pure. Remind yourself of His greatness and love. You are more significant than the enemies. You can overcome the fear and turn it into courage because the God of all strength is living within you. 

Be reminded of the love of God. Declare His greatness when doubt creeps in your way. Fight your war with courage and hope. Shake off the uncertainties. Attract positive energy and choose what to listen to. Feed yourself, your body, and your soul with the food it needs to grow. Choose the things that can help you and not those that can destroy you.
