Today's Scripture
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God (Romans 12:2, NKJV)
Today's Word from Joel and Victoria
Living in victory means that sometimes you have to develop new habits. If youve been negative for a long time, youve got to re-train your thinking from I cant to I can; from It wont happen to It will happen; from Ill never get well to God is restoring health unto me; from I never get any good breaks to Gods favor surrounds me like a shield; from Ive made too many mistakes. Im all washed up to Im redeemed and forgiven. My best days are still out in front of me. Its like reprogramming a computer. Sometimes you have to wipe off the old, outdated, dysfunctional software and load in something new.
If youve spent your days focused on how things wont work, its time to focus on how things will work out! It doesnt matter how bad it looks, how many people have told you no, or how long its been that way, God has the final say. Its not over till God says its over. Shake off the self-pity. Shake off the disappointment. Let go of the old and choose to believe Him. Declare His promises over your life and see His blessing and victory as you align yourself with Him!
A Prayer for Today
Father God, thank You for the transformation power in Your Word! Thank You for giving me hope for my future. I choose to trust You, I choose to believe Your word, and I choose to declare Your truth and watch victory unfold in Jesus name! Amen.
