Focusing more on what you have and less on what you don’t
have can bring joy into your life. However, this kind of thinking doesn't
always come naturally. It requires a deliberate effort to engage in a mental
battle against triggers and negative thoughts that arise.
Maintaining a positive internal and spiritual atmosphere is important if you
want to attract the goodness and favour of Heaven and maintain a close
relationship with the Holy Spirit.
If you find that you have lost your peace of mind and joy, take a moment to
calm down and examine your thoughts. Check what you just heard or saw and how
you are handling sudden changes in your circumstances.
This is not to say that we should simplify events
that happen suddenly in our lives. It often takes a longer time to process such
events. However, as long as we are alive, we must continue to live, love,
believe, hope, and make the most of the time we have been given.
We may not always have control over the things that happen to us, but we can
always control our reactions to these situations and take personal
responsibility for how we handle them going forward.
The scripture says, “For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a
military campaign employing human weapons… We capture, like prisoners of war,
every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One.”
(2 Cor. 10:3-5 TPT)
We are just a couple of days into the new year and this message couldn't have
come at a better time. Wishing you an amazing year ahead!
