I have self control because God said I do. (Numbers 23:19, 2 Timothy 3:16) God's Words always override my words and how I currently feel.
Independent of people and/or circumstances, I (me...myself...and I) always decide (choose) whether or not to operate in self control. (Deuteronomy 30:19)
The same is true for ALL God's promises. (2 Corinthians 1:20)
- Healing (Isaiah 53:5)
- Finances ((Luke 6:38, Malachi 3:10)
- Freedom (Galatians 5:1)
- Peace (John 14:27, Isaiah 26:3)
- Abundant life (John 10:10, 1 John 2:25, John 3:15)
- Love (John 3:16, Romans 5:8)
"LOOPHOLE"!
We must consume (and teach) our whole bible (not just the parts we like),
refusing to live in ignorance. (Revelation 22:19, 1 Corinthians 12:1)
You may currently be walking through the fire
(opposition to receiving God's promises).
That doesn't always mean you've done something wrong. (John 9:2-3)
Jesus told us we would have battles to fight
and
we would have temptations to overcome.
He also told us to be courageous and not be troubled because
nothing can separate us from His love,
He won't ever leave us,
and
He has already insured our victory!
(Romans 8:37-39, Deuteronomy 31:6, Luke 17:1,
Ephesians 6:12, John 16:33, 1 Corinthians 15:57)
If you are facing problems today...
- be strong and courageous because you are not alone,
- just believe,
- give Him is rightful place in your life,
- stay connected to Him,
- have faith God is on your side,
- don't waver,
- never-ever give up on what God has promised you,
- and allow your spirit (what you know that you know to be true...God's Word) to rule your mouth!
