This material will have a powerful influence on your life... if you will allow it to minister to your spirit. It has been a source of healing and encouragement to us... and to our ministry. Exciting and beautiful changes began to happen when we took these truths and diligently applied them to our lives. We have never been the same.
We have seen how much our thoughts and words have an influence on our relationships and situations. You will reap what you sow. Expect good things to happen and they will be the things that start happening to you. Thoughts are the beginning of reality. Our words bring them to life... into existence.
The Bible says, in Genesis, that man was made in the image of God. If you remember, God spoke all of His creation into existence. That shows you how powerful the spoken word is. Since we are made in God's image, our words have power in our lives too. We become a mirror of what we speak. Speak death, as the majority of the world does today, and you live in a survival mode... full of fear and depression. Speak life, the truth in the Word of God, and you will live a victorious life, full of fruits of the spirit... Love, Joy, Peace. Whose report will you believe? The world's or God's?
Sow negative thoughts... and you will meet sour people and have uncomfortable and disappointing problems and situations. What do you do when you realize that something is bringing you down, and is keeping you from flowing with the Lord? What do you do when you keep seeing the same destructive patterns in your life? What about your attitudes? Do your thoughts lead you to a place of failure... or unhappiness? Do you let negativity bring you down?
Whether problems stem from negative attitudes, feelings and emotions or your circumstances and bad situations... many of us are often walking in fear and rejection. This is contrary to JESUS' plan for us... to be Free, Loving and Transparent... before Him and others.
"FINALLY, BROTHERS, WHATEVER IS TRUE, WHATEVER IS NOBLE, WHATEVER IS RIGHT, WHATEVER IS PURE, WHATEVER IS LOVELY, WHATEVER IS ADMIRABLE - IF ANYTHING IS EXCELLENT OR PRAISEWORTHY - THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS. ... AND THE GOD OF PEACE WILL BE WITH YOU." (Philippians 4:8-9).
You start by changing your way of thinking. Thoughts are the beginning of reality. The HOLY SPIRIT is here to love and guide you. He plants good thoughts into your mind. As you meditate upon these thoughts... life begins to grow! As you begin to receive these truths, you will see over and over, that your life is really controlled by the things you place in your spirit, by way of thought patterns. Start now...
