���� Hello Divinity CITIZENS,Its a great Joy for me to write you today, I found out that some Christian folks complains a lot concerning their present state, maybe because they don't have help,they don't have parents, they don't have a job. But as a Christian all these things doesn't matter and is not worth complaining when you know who you are;the only thing that needs to be corrected is your mentality towards yourself,money,help,etc. A poor man is not poor because he doesn't have money but poverty is a mentality/mindset,being sick starts from your mind immediately you accept it in your mind you make it become real. So your mind is a great tool for your success in life,how you are today is not by accident it is the product of your mind. That is is why the lord says " Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].Romans 12:2.
So when you set your gaze on Jesus and take your eyes of your present condition ,using God's word as an agent of renewing your mind,study the word of God and get wisdom to direct you in the affairs of life.
➡I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth (Psalm 121:1-2).
➡How important it is for us tomorrow to take our eyes and attention away from ourselves—who we are, what we've done, where we've been, what we've got—and look to the Lord! It brings to mind the story of Abraham, a very important experience he had with the Lord. In Genesis 15:1, God said to him, "Fear not...I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward." ➡Nevertheless, Abraham complained, "Lord GOD..., what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless... Behold, to me thou hast given no seed..." (Genesis 15:2-3). God had promised him a son before now, but Abraham was still struggling to believe.
➡God then took Him out and said, "Look now toward heaven..., and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and He said unto him, So shall thy seed be. And he believed in the Lord; and He counted it to him for righteousness" (Genesis 15:5-6). With this, Abraham saw his offspring as innumerable as the stars in the sky, and he believed! Afterwards, Isaac was born.
➡God had to help Abraham's vision; He got him to look in the right direction and set his focus in the right place. The Lord helped him look away from his age and circumstances, toward heaven. Don't look into your house, or your bank account to find what you have. Don't say, "I'm so broke; there're so many things I want to do, but there's no money." No! Look to Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith. Look toward heaven, from where your help comes.
➡This is one of the benefits of prayer. In the place of prayer, we can really focus our attention on the Lord. When I pray, I don't see the impossibilities, limitation, or the problems. I only see the Lord, His blessings, greatness, and miracles! That's what happens each time you set your focus on Him—in prayer, meditation on the Word, and the Spirit: You see and experience the miraculous!
➡So, refuse to be anxious about who's going to help you! Look toward heaven! Lift up your eyes to the hills; your help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth. Glory to His Name forever!
��YOUR PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for bringing me into a place of excellence, success, victory, and abundance. I'm inspired by your Word to think the right thoughts, speak the right words and receive the results of the Word in my life today, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
�� Go Deeper:
��Isaiah 26:3
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
��Philippians 4:6-7
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
[7] And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
��Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Do have a Blessed Night.
