Devotional
Sometimes in life, we’re trying to make a lump out of nothing. We would pick a mere fault about us and keep magnifying it until it becomes an issue and would begin to negatively affect us. But, beloved, the truth is, there is nothing wrong with you. That problem you see about yourself and count as an error in your life, doesn’t exist anywhere but in your mind. So, when you keep your mind away from it, it would go away. That’s why the apostle Paul wrote in 2 Timothy 1:7; and he said,
Key Scripture
God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.2 Timothy 1:7 NKJV
Refreshing for the Day
Again, what we focus on, we amplify. If we focus on our wrongs, they will amplify. And if we focus on what’s right about us, the right thing will increase and amplify in our lives. They don’t change in actual size; we’re simply making them bigger in our mind. So, we must learn to always guard our thoughts (Proverbs 4:23) and begin to focus on the great and wonderful things God said about us. Stay Refreshed!
Note This
What you focus on, you amplify. If you focus on your wrongs, they will amplify. And if you focus on what’s right about you, the right thing will increase and amplify in your life.
Responsibility
So, quit amplifying what’s wrong about you, and start focusing on what God said about you.
Pause in His presence
Prayer
O Lord, purge my mind, and give me the grace to focus on the right things about my life, in Jesus’ name, Amen!
Carry this with you
Prophetic Word
