Live Unimpressed With The Enemy!

I think if I could say ONE thing to you today it would be this: STOP.

Please stop.

STOP staying stuck in your cycle of negative speech.
STOP staying chained to the very things that are breaking you.
STOP repeating lies from the enemy.

STOP.

I believe the reason for so much stunting of our spiritual growth stems from what we say and how we choose to live.

I see it all around me.
And one look on Facebook this morning I see it again.
"I am so depressed."
"I am feeling so frustrated."
"I am sick and tired of being sick and tired."

And yet the main reason we're there is because we can't stop talking about being there.

Did you know that YOU and I were CREATED to live with Divine Health?
And yet day after day, for many of us, all we can do is talk about our aches and pains.

Jesus Christ gave us His very life so that you can I could live in freedom.
Freedom from depression.
Freedom from disease.
Freedom from stress and anxiety.
Freedom from discouragement.

And when you and I maintain a lifestyle where the best we can communicate to the world involves negativity and complaining and words of defeat and failure, all we're really doing is revealing the world we're most consciously aware of. All we're really demonstrating is a lifestyle impressed with the devil's work.

Paul warns us in Ephesians, chapter 5, to not even DISCUSS the works of evil.
Because when we do, we become more influenced by things Jesus never said and behavior patterns we were never meant to possess!

I must live unimpressed with the work of the enemy and begin speaking OPPOSITE of circumstances if I desire... truly desire... breakthrough in my life.

And I don't have this down-pat either... but I am working on it every day. For 4 weeks now I have suffered through an almost debilitating illness. And on the surface it couldn't have come at a more inconvenient time.

But I KNOW my God is bigger.
And I KNOW that what has been happening, although not assigned by the Creator, has been allowed by Him, and not without great purpose to prosper me!

And so it's a shift in mindset.
I've been declaring it over my life daily.
Divine Health is mine!
Goodness and mercy follow after me!
I am strong in Jesus' name!

My prayer has become - thank you God for all the glory You are going to get out of this!

That which we declare with our mouths changes everything!
Absolutely everything!!
