Abundant Thinking – Will You Be Wealthy if You Win the Lottery This Week?

Abundant Thinking – Will You Be Wealthy if You Win the Lottery This Week?

Discover the Key to True Wealth!

abundance_of_god_wealthAbundance is something we can all tap into.

The prosperous, wealthy life is about money and finances, but, and make that a big but, it does not start or stop there.

So the question is: If you were to win the lottery today, or come into some great unexpected inheritance, of say five million dollars, would you be wealthy?

It is commonly known that the majority of lottery winners end up right back where they started or sometimes in even worst conditions.

A large sum of money, suddenly deposited into your bank account does not make you wealthy. It only adds some extra zeros to your account balance for a certain amount of time.

Money Is Not All It Takes To Be Wealthy

Are you saying about now “Just show me the money and I’ll be happy.”?

Money is a critical part of wealth and we all need it to live on. I agree. Nobody likes to be broke. However, as important as money is, it is only a part of wealth.

Money is just money.

True prosperity and wealth is the abundance of God. And as His child, God wants you to live in abundance and get out of the “poverty” mentality. God wants you to seek wisdom and be blessed with abundance in all areas of your life; spiritually, physically, and financially.

Deep down I’m sure you know this to be true. Now, unless you change some things in your life, you will stay in a cycle and always ends up right back where you started; before you came into money or any other blessing.

True Wealth Requires Wisdom and the Right Mindset

There are numerous stories of people that have prospered financially and then for one reason or another lost all they had. Yet they also had something else in their lives that allowed them to turn back around and become financially prosperous once again.

What set these successful people apart? They had wisdom and maintained the right mindset.

Wisdom and the right abundant, prosperous, and wealthy mindset allow you to manifest amazing results in your life!

No secret about it: Being wealthy requires filling your mind with the right thoughts. If you find yourself over and over in a position you do not want to be in, then it is about time you have an overhaul on your thought life.

Renew Your Mind

Renewing your mind is a process and requires work.

There are no magic thoughts or words that bring instant wealth. It is a growing process that changes you from the inside out and eventually becomes manifested in your life.

Are you with me still? The sooner you start the sooner you’ll experience the positive changes you desire.

Discover what the truly wealthy think about. Find out what the Word of God has to say about true riches. Then begin to activate your faith in these areas by speaking these things out loud to yourself and over your life. Put the law of attraction into motion.

A sample daily confession:

“Because I diligently seek the wisdom of God, riches and honor are with me, enduring riches and righteousness, my fruit is better than gold, and wisdom causes me to inherit wealth and my bank accounts to be full.”
(Proverbs 8:17-19, 21)

Get started today: Take control of your thought life and elevate your level of success. Be all that God intends you to be and be blessed to be a blessing. Watch your life transform as you seek wisdom and choose to think and speak abundance.

May you seek wisdom and renew your mind daily and continue to experience growing prosperity!

God bless you –

Cheers,
Brenda

Spiritual Warfare – How Does The Shield of Faith Help When the Attacks Come?

Spiritual Warfare – How Does The Shield of Faith Help When the Attacks Come?

Discover How to Take the Power Out of the Attacks by Putting on
the Shield of Faith!

Spiritual warfare requires responding to attacks with the Shield of Faith.

Sometimes the attacks come at our thoughts with the power of suggestion. Other times it may be in the form of sickness, accidents, poverty, or tragedy.

In all cases, we must react immediately to the attack with faith.

A Battle to Fight: The Enemy

Spiritual Warfare Shield of FaithDon’t be fooled, lest satan should get an advantage on you.

Throughout the Bible, in verses such as 2 Corinthians 2:11, we are told not to be fooled of his devices. This is important to be aware of, because if we are not conscious of the true source of trouble, we may fall guilty to blaming God.

“Enemy-occupied territory—that is what this world is.”
– C.S. Lewis

Attacks are going to come. That is part of life on earth regardless who you are. Whether you choose to acknowledge it or not, the enemy is regularly throwing his fiery darts at us.

Do we really see the enemy hand behind the attacks?

There is a whole lot more going on behind the scenes of our lives than the majority of us have been led to believe.

Keep in mind: As believers we have the image of God reflected in a us. This does not please the enemy. My greatest battles in life have come after purposing to step out in some way for God.

A Battle to Fight: Power to Overcome

The Lord wants to protect us from attacks. That is why He provided us His Word and tells us to put on the whole armor of God.

The Shield of Faith is part of the armor and designed to render harmless the fiery darts that come our way. Be aware that we cannot stop the attacks from coming, but we can stop them from having a lasting effect.

Regardless of the type of attack, we must stand ready to repel the enemy plan with the Word of God spoken in faith. Remember, we are to live by faith.

Stand in the Battle: You are Not Alone

Jesus is a great example of how to stand against the enemy and overcome.

He was tempted by satan through the power of suggestion. Notice that He was not passive about the attacks in His thoughts. He always took immediate action and repelled the suggestions with the Word of God. This caused satan’s darts to quickly become extinguished. Christ aggressively answered each barrage with faith.

“If we would endeavor, like men of courage, to stand in the battle, surely we would feel the favorable assistance of God from Heaven.” – Thomas A Kempis

Shield your heart, mind, and body. Our faith should be in every promise God made to us. We all have different levels of faith in different areas.

If your faith is weak in an area build it up by listening to the Word of God on that subject. Meditate on verses that will help your faith in that area.

Examples of Responding to Attacks in Faith:

For bad thoughts, fear, and negative suggestions:
Resist by saying God has given me a spirit of power, and love, and a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7)

For sickness and physical attacks:
Resist by saying Jesus took my infirmities and bore my sickness, and by His stripes I am healed. (Matthew 8:17, 1 Peter 2:24)

For poverty attacks:
Resist by saying my God shall supply all my need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)

For persecution attacks:
Resist by saying no weapon formed against me shall prosper. (Isaiah 54:17)

Case in Point: The Shield of Faith repels not only attacks on our minds, but circumstances as well. Stand strong and have courage knowing that all the attacks are rendered harmless when we rise to meet them in faith.

May you walk by faith and continue to experience a life of growing prosperity!

God bless you –

Snap, Crackle, and Prosper – How to Manifest Your Bowl of Abundance!

Snap, Crackle, and Prosper – How to Manifest Your Bowl of Abundance!

Discover Some Tips to Help You Enjoy Your Own Manifested
Bowl of Abundance

Bowl of AbundanceAbundance: Have you decided it is time to make a change and pour yourself a bowl of abundance?

Well, before anything can manifest in your world on the outside –

 before you feel better, look better, or fatten up your bank account

– the image inside you must change.

Why not start today and get busy putting on a new image?

SNAP TO IT

It’s only a matter of time until what you think about and how you see yourself on the inside is what your life will look like on the outside. Begin to see yourself and your life the way God sees you.

Your finances may be a mess, and your health a wreck, but you need to take on God’s image of you. He sees you prospering and in health, even as your soul prospers.

CRACKLE AND MAKE A LITTLE NOISE

Start speaking the new vision that is on the inside of you.

One of the major keys to confession and faith is that what you hear yourself speak produces faith inside you. The confession of God’s Word is necessary to build faith to prosper in all areas.

The words you speak get into your spirit and then they come back out your mouth. Every time they go through this process, they increase in power and you get stronger and closer to manifesting your desires.

Jesus told us that out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth Speaks. And if you believe what you Say, you’ll have it.  (Matt. 12:34, Mark 11:23)

PROSPER AND KEEP PROSPERING

Prepare yourself for abundance. Use your faith on the front end before the need arises. Confess God’s Word concerning prosperity daily and have His system in motion before a major crisis ever comes along.

Mark my words: It takes longer to work these principles if you’re already in the midst of a problem, because you have to combat negative thoughts and feelings. So speak out your confession of faith when you have no sickness or financial lack and you’ll be better prepared for when you do.

Bowl of ProsperityFeast your eyes on a prosperous life and make it a way of life to speak abundance.

May you continue growing in prosperity daily and enjoy your manifested bowl of abundance!

Be blessed to be a blessing –

Cheers,

Wisdom Stability of the Lord – Isaiah 33:6 Video

Wisdom Stability of the Lord – Isaiah 33:6

The Stability of Your Times is Found in the Lord!

“And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of your times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.” 
— Isaiah 33:6

This video didn’t turn out like I intended, but the verse is still a good one! 🙂

It is also interesting, because at our mid-week service tonight, my Pastor taught some on how salvation includes not only our eternal spiritual salvation, but also the other benefits of God including spiritual, physical, and materially blessings.

He also pointed out that we need to be knowledgeable about what is available to us so we can claim it. When I look at this verse it relates…

If we want true stability we have to look to God’s Word and get it through the salvation He provided. And further wisdom and knowledge of His Word will help us tap into the great inheritance provided us. A healthy fear of the Lord, that causes us to obey His Word is a treasure greater than we can receive in this lifetime!

God bless you –

Self-Esteem – How Can Meditation and Affirmations Increase Your Confidence?

Self-Esteem – How Can Meditation and Affirmations Increase Your Confidence?

Boldy Affirm the Power of Who You Are In Him!

Self-esteem is a powerful driving force in our lives. Are you a victim of low self-confidence? Do you avoid taking on responsibilities and asserting your individuality? Do you shrink from everything that draws attention to yourself and have no faith in your abilities?

Self-Esteem Biblical Meditation Affirmations If this describes you, then you’ll want to begin immediately putting the power of meditation and affirmations to work in your life.

Persistently meditating and confessing positive affirmations over yourself will result in strengthening your weak qualities, building character, and making your life more favorable and noble.

The truth is, as a child of God you should be victory minded. 🙂

You should give great importance to building up your confidence and self-esteem. A lack of confidence in yourself is a poor reflection on the Creator who pronounced everything He made as good.

Lack of faith in yourself is nothing but lack of faith in Him.

Meditation and affirmations should be a daily routine. Think and speak what you desire to be. When you confess what God says about you, you will begin to see a new self-image.

It’s only a matter of time until what you think about and how you see yourself on the inside is what your life will look like on the outside. If you will get the image of God’s Word in you, you will raise your self-esteem.

The following strong, positive affirmations are very suggestive and will help get you started in boosting your personal image by meditating and confessing them daily:

  • I am a child of God and I am made in His image and likeness.
  • I prosper in God’s good plan for my life.
  • I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
  • I have a spirit of power, and love, and a sound mind.
  • I have the mind of Christ.
  • I have the ability to do what my Creator sent me here to do.
  • I wait on the Lord and He renews my strength.

Truth be told: There’s no limit to the confidence you can build with powerful affirmations and meditation. Let the spirit of you, the real you, constantly affirm the power of who you are in Him. You are somebody special. God has a purpose and plan for your life, just waiting to unfold. Dare to boldly confess who you are and boost your self-esteem.

May your positive meditations and affirmations bring you growing prosperity!

God bless you –
Cheers,
Brenda

Joy Comes in the Morning – Psalm 30

Joy Comes in the Morning – Dance with Gladness – Sing Praise to God

“I WILL extol you, O Lord; for You have lifted me up…
and you have healed me… you have kept me alive…
in His favor is life: weeping may endure for a night,
but joy comes in the morning…
You have turned my mourning into dancing…and
girded me with gladness;
To the end that my glory may sing praise to You,
and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks
unto You forever.” 
— Psalm 30

These are just excerpts and I would recommend reading the whole chapter…

Prosperity – Can I Show You 4 Keys to Attract the Abundant Life?

Prosperity – Can I Show You 4 Keys to Attract the Abundant Life?

Apply These 4 Keys to Attract ‘More Than Enough’ Prosperity!

God is Key to Prosperous Life!Prosperity and abundance follow laws as exact as that of the law of mathematics.

It will not act unless all the necessary conditions are met.

If we obey the law, we get the desired results. If we don’t follow the law, things don’t equate to the correct outcome.

Are you with me still?

Attracting prosperity and abundance simply requires following its law.

The following four keys will help guide you on your journey.

#1 – Acknowledge the Source:

God is the creator and source of all supply. No doubt about it. Nothing is impossible when God is your partner. God wants you to prosper and He is the one who gives you the ability to gain wealth. He will direct your paths when you acknowledge him.

“God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19

 

#2 – Get the Vision:

Our thoughts become reality. We are told in Proverbs 23:7 that we are what we think in our hearts.

What we think about is what we attract. That’s why it is so important to get a clear vision of the goal we want to prosper in. Make your mind a magnet that will attract your desired outcome. Do this by meditating, living and feeling the reality of your goal in your mind.

#3 – Take Action:

Make a plan of action and then put some physical energy into attracting your desire. Faith is backing up what you believe with action. Speak and confess your vision daily.

Remember, God’s Word is His will for you, so make sure you speak the same thing God says about you. 3 John 1:2 tells us that God wants us to prosper and be in health even as our soul prospers.

Start being a generous giver. You have to give to receive. God multiplies seed sown.

Psalm 1:3 says whatever we DO will prosper. So make sure you’re doing something.

#4 – Never Quit:

Don’t give up! Run to win.

Some things take time. Results don’t always happen overnight.

Don’t let doubts come in and short circuit the connection to your goal and attract the opposite. Poor thinkers are poor. Prosperous thinkers prosper.

Continue to speak only the desired results for your life and fight discouragement with positive affirmations daily. Speak success.

So there you have it: Develop yourself in these four key areas, then watch as prosperity and abundance is drawn to you and manifested in your life. With God as your partner, you have access to an unlimited creative power to have an abundant overflow onto you and those around you.

May you be blessed to be a blessing and have growing prosperity!

Soar higher,
Brenda
