Preparing for Victory

Now seek the Lord your God with all your heart and soul.
1 Chronicles 19:22 (NLT)

Every day presents its own set of obstacles that can cause us to lose our joy.
When this happens we find ourselves discouraged and just enduring life.
But God never intended for us to simply endure life.
You were created to enjoy life.

Every day you prepare yourself for either victory or defeat.
When you wake up each morning, you must choose to set your mind in the right direction.
You may arise one morning feeling discouraged.
You may be saying to yourself,
"I don't want to go to work today."
"I don't want to deal with these children."
"I've got so many problems."
If you dwell on these kinds of negative thoughts,
you are preparing yourself for a lousy day.

Instead...
you must turn your thought patterns around and say,
"This is going to be a great day!"
"Something good is coming my way today!"
"God has favor in my future and I'm expecting new opportunities!"

When you take on this attitude, you are preparing yourself for victory.
An attitude of faith paves the way for God to show up and show out in unique ways!
Your attitude opens the door for Him to work in your life and pour out His supernatural blessings on you!

Have a blessed & powerful day!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Heavenly Father, I choose to set my whole heart and mind on You today. I seek You with all that I am.
I know You have good things planned for me.
Use me to be a blessing to others.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
