Set Your Mind

-
" Now therefore thus says the Great Spirit: Consider your ways and set your mind on what has come to you." (Haggai 1:5 AMP)

Often times in order for us to see a miracle happen we need to first be the change. There are two types of faith, one is called delivering faith and the other is called sustaining faith. The first type of faith is when Great Spirit instantly changes your situation, you are healed, you get a sudden break. Delivering faith is when you do not have to go through the trial. A greater faith is sustaining faith, a faith that though you may go through a fire, a tough time, Great Spirt will make you fireproof and allow you to use power you never thought you had. 

One of the first things we need to do to see this come to pass is to consider our ways and then set our mind to achieve it. I like what Great Spirit told some men who had a vision to rebuild the temple in Israel along time ago. He told them to first consider their ways. In other words, look at where you are and what you are doing. Is this where you want to be ten years from now? What am I doing that needs to change in order for miracles to take place? After you take stock of where you are, you set your mind on the vision that was given to you and make plans to accomplish it. Isn't it interesting Great Spirit brought up the power of positive thinking? He knew that if these men did not get their mind going in the right direction they would not accomplish anything. 

The same is true for us, if we want to bring miracles to a lost world often times we need to take a look at our own situation and figure out what we need to do in order to make that happen. Once we do, we should begin to think like the Great Lion, "I am an overcomer, I will see this come to pass, no weapon formed against me will prosper."  When you set your mind on your vision from the Great Spirit, I believe and declare you will have a sustaining faith that will grow and allow you to see miracles come to pass you never imagined.

PRAYER FOR TODAY
GREAT SPIRIT, Thank you for guiding me and helping me to set my mind on higher things. Thank you for instructing me on how to change any bad habits in order that I may be disciplined to see your purpose prevail. In the name of the Great Lion, let this be so.

The True Sign of Maturity

[A Year with Aslan, Lewis, 2010] "Aslan, Aslan, dear Aslan," sobbed Lucy, "at last."     The GREAT LION rolled over on his side so that Lucy fell, half sitting and half lying between his paws. He [Aslan] bent forward and touched her nose with his tongue. His warm breath came around her. She gazed up into his large, wise face.    "Welcome, child," he said.    "Aslan," Lucy said, "you're bigger."    "That is because you are older, little one," answered he.    "Not because you are?"    "I am not. But every year you grow you will find me bigger." What does it mean to you that each year you grow, we discover the Great Lion to be bigger? A PRAYER FOR TODAY GREAT SPIRIT, thank you that each year we live you become bigger on the inside of us. Thank you that the Great Lion grows bigger and more powerful in and through us every year of our life. Thank you for giving us the wisdom to see your mysterie...

“A man’s gift makes room for him and brings him before great men.” (Proverbs 18:16, NASB) TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria When people hear the story of David and Goliath, sometimes they think, “That was all God.” And yes, in a sense, it was all God; but God didn’t sling the stone. David had a role to play, too. God gave David the skill that he had to develop in order to be prepared for that defining moment. Like David, God has put skills inside of you so that you can slay the giants in your life. You have the skills that can open new doors, skills that can lead to an abundant life, but the key is that the skills have to be developed. Every day that you spend growing, learning and improving, you’re getting prepared for that new level. Today, while you’re waiting for that new opportunity, start sharpening your skills. Study your boss. Study your manager. Learn that position. Be able to step into their shoes. When God sees that you are prepared, then He can ...

You Get What You Think

“The fears ….. will be fulfilled; the hopes of the godly will be granted.” (Proverbs 10:14 NLT) Our life will always move to what we think about most, which is why it is so important to guard your mind. If you are not careful you can think about only negative things and you become a negative person. Have you ever been around that person who only has the news channel on in their house? They are always talking about how bad things are, how things just seem to be getting worse, the world is coming to an end. That person over time, if you take notice, will become a very cynical, negative person. Why? They were moving toward what they were watching and thinking about.  We also know those people who let their fears take hold of their life, “My car is going to break down this week, and I just know it”or“I knew we wouldn’t be able to go on that vacation, I just knew I would get downsized.” What happened? Your fears were fulfilled. ...
