"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Matthew 6:33 |
In life, we have to become determined that regardless of the circumstances, we will win! That mindset will make even the biggest problems subject to your faith. Don't get me wrong; thinking like a winner will be harder said than done. But, consider the scripture Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 8:38-39. Paul's mindset was made up, and neither life nor death would separate him from God's love.
Romans 8:38-39 says, "For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." We all need to think like Paul. Let's become determined to win and persuaded that no matter what comes our way the love of God is still ours. If God's love through Jesus Christ is still ours than we know we can win. We are bound to be victorious because the God we serve, who loves us, he is a winner.

Ephesians 1:16-18 Today's devotion doesn't come with bells and whistles. I simply want to ask you if you have been thankful for the trials, experiences and circumstances that you are in? This morning I woke up and God's voice spoke very clearly, "In all things, be thankful." When God voice speaks so audibly, I listen. And I think you should too. Whatever you are facing thank God for it and watch how your gratitude helps your mind.
Life is life. Even the word declares that it is hell. But if you go through this Earth angry at the hand you were dealt, you will never access the things of God. Decide today to be grateful, even for your hardships. Be glad that you are in a place where God can show up and show out. This is your opportunity of faith; your chance for a grace experience. Don't ruin it by failing to be thankful. Paul wrote to the church of Ephesus and in Ephesians 1:16-18, he makes a bold statement. He said that he never ceased to thank God for the church. And then, he said something awesome. That he prayed that God would give them wisdom and revelation of him. Today, my heart is like Paul's. I am grateful for every battle that each of the #excellentchallengers are facing. And I thank God in advance for revealing unto you the things that he wills. Take a moment to stare at your problems and be grateful. Praise God for you problems. He may not answer right away but he will give you wisdom and revelation concerning the things you war against. He has riches in glory for you and your gratitude is the best way to get them. Check out today's prayer! And be sure to Tweet, Facebook and Instagram us using the hashtag #100DaysofExcellence.
God knew that we would face the enemy on the battlefield of our thoughts. He knew that we would have to choose whether to let defeat or anger or anxiety take us off our course. His infinite knowledge led him to instruct us in Philippians 2. The word implores us to think like Jesus did as he walked the earth.
God can use you once you decide to think like Christ. As you become resolute on shaking the devil off, think of ways in your life that the enemy has attached negativity to you. Give God the sources of your negative thoughts. He will be faithful to deliver you and to carry you into the peace that surpasses understanding. Listen to today's prayer and ask God to help you find the sources of your negativity. "Let this mind be in you,
