Day 8 The Mind of a Warrior

The Mind of a Warrior Part 1

         Day 7 was your day of rest. Today I want to dispel some things that come against us believing that we are warriors. 1) you’ve been told your too small, your too young, too old, too small, not educated enough etc. There seems to be this measure that we always appear to fall short of. The devil is a liar!!! The measure is in the hands of the almighty!!! He has called you for your vision, purpose, business, ministry, etc.... Does he not qualify the called (Romans 8:30) ? So how is it you can fall short of what he created you for? 2) your fears- A warrior is to be fearless in most contexts. When we think of a warrior we think of bravery, courage, and war. We don’t associate fear with a warrior. Yet God chose Gideon. He was not absent of fear he asked for constant reassurance see Judges 7. Gideon placed faith in front of his fears. When we place faith in front of our fears that is what propels us into battle. To fight what comes against our vision and more importantly what comes against our minds! If you are waiting until you are free from fear altogether to start on what God has called you to do you have already lost the fight. You are a warrior in God’s sight already.

Day 16 Fighting the unbelief

Fighting the unbelief Day 13 was spent on reflecting on the days past and for my private group we focused on guided meditation and channeling our energy on the vision. It was an awesome two days. There are a couple of  people who asked about unbelief. Let's examine it together. I like to ask people who express some unbelief whether verbally or through their actions this question. What do you believe? We spend a lifetime fueling unbelief. Mark 9:24 " help my unbelief". God is not interested in the magnitude of your belief. He is looking for even the smallest traces of evidence of it. Matthew 17:20 If you have the faith of a mustard seed, you can say to a mountain move and it will move. When I ask what do you believe in, I'm really asking what have you placed your faith in. Is it your spouse, your children, your job, your friends, or your church. Before you hurry and answer no let me define faith. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary  faith is an allegiance

Day 11 A Timely Mindset

A Timely Mindset We have all heard the expression “why put off tomorrow what can be done today”. The Bible says in proverbs 6:4 “Don’t put it off; do it now! Don’t rest until you do. “ Do you realize you’ve had a lot of yesterdays in your lifetime. There seems to be a big misconception about time. We somehow whimsically say “I will do it tomorrow”. Have you began to notice  that tomorrow gets here faster than we expect. So our dreams, healing, businesses, ministries etc... sleep and wait for another tomorrow. The truth is what you sow today is what you reap tomorrow. So it’s already a promise that if you didn’t make a move today you will not see any results tomorrow. This week we have been discussing the mindset of a warrior. Joshua in the battle of Jericho was not just obedient but timely. The smallest details have the most impact in battle and in life. Your future successes are wrapped in your daily routines (Dr. Micheal Murdock). Joshua 6:10 Joshua had commanded the army, “Do n

Day 19 Start with Love Part 2

Start With Love part 2  The last 2 days have been about loving Jesus and being obedient. Yesterday the private group focused on “why I love Jesus”. One member said it’s like the song says “because he first loved me”. We are heading into the hardest part of the matter which is loving others. I’m not talking about just loving the people who love you. I mean loving the people who you know don’t like you or have your best interest in mind. You might ask why do we have to do that. Firstly, is it necessary to have that loving attitude and mindset because it drives your actions and your choices. Luke 6:27-36 “But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. If someone slaps you on one cheek, turn to them the other also. If someone takes your coat, do not withhold your shirt from them. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as
