Ok-here comes my heart
Current mood: depressed
Category: but hopeful Life
Well, it has been a hectic last couple of weeks. It seems like the enemy is attacking me in everyway possible. I've learned that whatever strengths you have-the enemy will attack you in the opposite way. For example, I feel I have a soft heart full of compassion at times and the devil knows that therefore he throws anger and hurtfulness and the desire to be critical of others in my face. I really struggle with being angry and critical of myself and others and I've always been that way. It's a constant daily struggle to not get angry and just want to rip someone's head off for just saying the wrong thing to me. Part of that I think is just negative things about my past and part of it is just me not being as strong in God's Word as I should be. It is something I pray about everyday and am looking forward to being free'd from. I was flipping throught the channels last night while trying to fall asleep and I came across Joel Osteen preaching on TBN. Something just pressed me to stay on that channel and listen to him speak even though I would rather shoot myself than watch TBN. So, I watched and his message was something I needed to hear. I've always struggled with low self-esteem and just really not loving myself the way I should. In turn, being dissatisfied with myself, I took that out on other people. If you don't love yourself, how can you love others??? Well, he said, and this sounds kinda crazy to me but its worth a try, that your words are powerful. You can begin to prophesie (spelling) things into your own life just by your words. Speak good things into your life continually and it will come to pass. SPEAK- I am skinny-I am prosperous-I love people-They love me...etc etc... It won't happen overnight but after months and months of doing that it will begin to settle in your spirit and it WILL happen. God wants all the best for us in our lives so if we just speak it and CLAIM IT in Jesus name-IT WILL BE DONE. Believe it!!!! Now, I've never actually tried this for myself and I have to admit at this moment I am very spectical but I'm going to give it a shot. Joel gave many scripture references to back up his message and the Word of God is true-so believe it and claim it.. I am starting this today and I challenge anyone that reads this to try it with me. Please leave me comments on how it has worked for you and lets pray for each other. I need some lifting up right now as I feel so depressed for some reason and I believe God's Word last night was meant for me!! J
