REPROGRAM YOUR MIND

NEGATIVE THOUGHTS?-HIT THE DELETE BUTTON



Hello everyone,how have you been?I decided to take a month's break from blogging and ended up taking more than planned...haha! I really missed you!

While I was away,I listened to a lot of sermons (all wonderful),had photo-shoots &toured.Trust me it was all fun.I will be sharing the highlights of my holiday,and today,I'll start with a wonderful sermon from Joel Osteen (he is one of my favorite preachers) about reprogramming one's mind.

"Our mind is like a computer,how we program it is very important,if we put the wrong software in it,it will not function as it is designed to",he started.He also added that the reason we don't experience this abundant life is because we've abandoned our software to viruses.

We should dwell on what our creator says about us (our original software) and use the delete button(get rid of) to erase all contaminating thoughts like "I'm not good enough","I can't do this job",most of which the comes from people that the enemy uses.

KEY POINTS

  • God gives you grace for every season,arms you with strength for every battle.
  • You can become what God planned you to be, all you have to do is get rid of negative thoughts.
  • Let people say what they want,you control your own soil;water good seeds and delete bad ones(i.e don't dwell on them)
  • God didn't make you faulty,sub par,he created a master piece (moreover in his image)

HABITS FOR A HEALTHY SPIRIT,BODY AND SOUL

THE GOD HABITS


Hello there,I believe you all had a wonderful week!I did.

Ever imagined if your thoughts and actions had any effect to your body,soul or even spirit?Yes they do!While listening to Joyce Meyer's sermon this week,I landed on this particular topic,"THE GOD HABITS"

Habits are made through reputation and can be broken by reputation. Distinguished characteristics that one possesses may affect their decisions and therefore their habits for example people pleasers, proud people,they are always bothered about what others may say about or think of them!

The habit of being decisive.The best is to make a good decision,second best is to make a bad decision and the worst is to make no decision at all.Always remember people who stay in the middle of the road are always run over..Make a decision for we make good decision from experience which comes from making bad decisions.

The habit of thinking right and speaking right.Your thoughts always precede your actions.One can't maintain good habits if they have bad thinking.Usually what is on our mind is what we do.Often when someone has idle talk,they have idle action, for example,if someone always says,"I will never get better",they always don't work hard to get out of their uncomfortable situations.

I encourage us to always think ,speak and act good.

Have a blessed Sunday and thank you for reading.

THE GREATEST TEST IN LIFE

HOW DO YOU USE YOUR POWER?



Hello there,I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend.I came across a great sermon by Bishop T.D Jakes and I would like to share it with you.

It's about power.One of the greatest tests in life is how to handle power. It increases our options and hence our tests.People with abusive power can take all your freedom and sometimes your life.

It's best you listen to his(Jakes') exact words.Watch Sermon

STAY OPEN TO CHANGE

CHANGE IS INEVITABLE


"The  only person that is ready for a change is a wet baby",said Joel Osteen. I'm so inspired by his sermons that choosing which one to share is hard for me sometimes.His messages are so powerful that I could relate to almost each of his sermons.I wonder if he ever runs out of topics!

We usually don't like change because we are usually comfortable where we are.We often get stuck into what God used to do instead of moving into what God is about to do.We should always remember that God works in seasons,what worked five years ago may not work today.

If one needs to be successful,one ought to be open to change .Always stay open to advice,suggestions especially those from family members,because these people love us and are very significant in our lives.These are people that God placed directly into our lives.

Often.we get used to temporary provision,the good news is that God loves us to keep us just there.He has got an abundance of blessings for us.

Highlights


  • A minor adjustment leads to a major improvement.
  • If you don't get rid of your old friends,you will never meet the right ones.
  • If something seems more than a burden than a blessing,that is a sign that God has something better for you in future.
  • God will take certain things away because He's creating space for what He has in stock for you.
  • What was meant for your harm,God will use for your opportunity.

IT'S NOT OVER

IT'S NOT OVER



Hello there! Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend.I'm a big fan of Joel Osteen (preacher) and his sermons.I could spend the whole day listening to him without getting distracted.The previous sermon I listened to was so powerful and I would like to share it with you.

Your mind will tell you all the time,"It's late,you're not going to make it,you have failed",but it's not over,God makes the final decision.
The doctor's report can say,"you will never be healed",God has a different report.

God has not brought you this far to abandon you.Just because you don't see a way doesn't mean there's no way.He is about to breath new life into your dreams,health,relationship and life.
If you are still sick,it's not over,God has set health on your way.Start believing,expecting and dreaming again.

You may not be able to beat the competition ,God may remove the competition.He has all ways to take you to destiny.All set backs are not meant to defeat us,they are to promote us.

Always remember that you are full of resurrection power and no obstacle is too large for you.No matter what happens in your life,have this attitude;it's not over.

Have a great Sunday and week a head.Xo

DETOXING YOUR MIND

CLEANSE YOUR MIND



Just like detoxing a body;ridding one's body of all toxins and waste,one needs to cleanse up their mind of all worrying thoughts,thinking what you can't do,what you've failed to achieve. These toxic thoughts contaminate our lives and affect our confidence,self esteem and attitude.

Just like in proverbs 4:23 (above all,be careful what you think because your thoughts control your life),those negative thoughts become strongholds that poison our future.

How to get rid of negative thoughts.

  • Make a decision you are not going to dwell on negative pasts anymore.For example,I missed so many good opportunities,condemnation,bitterness.
  • Keep your mind with thoughts of victory and faith.
  • Always remember what God blesses,no man an curse,before any man put a curse on you,God had put a blessing on you before.You are not what people say,you are what God says.
Have a blessed Sunday.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR VALUE

WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR SELF WORTH  FROM?


Deep down we need to know that we are important,that our life matters and that we have something great to offer.So often we base our sense of value on our looks,what we've achieved,occupation;which reduce our sense of worth because sometimes these aspects make us feel we are not good enough!

And so many times we base our value on how someone treats us and how they make us feel, and when they hurt or disappoint us,we turn the blame to ourselves.This is because we are getting our self worth from the wrong places.

Our value should come solely from the fact that we are children of the most high God.The value that God put in us is permanent.Nothing that we do or anyone does can or will ever change that value.

Someone might have hurt you;don't internalize it because you aren't the problem,they are.The good news is that they might have rejected you but God accepts you.He has already approved you.

Base your sense of value on what God says about you.He looks at us like his great masterpieces and to him we are each uniquely special.

Always remember,the one thing that creates value is who the owner is.Remember that you are so valuable because of who your owner is-God.The greatest enemy of value is rejection.Accept yourself,know your attached value because you were wonderfully created.

Great inspiration from one of Joel Osteen's sermons.

Happy new month.Xo
