FRIDAY JUNE19
“The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God.” 2Co10:4 NKJV
YOU CAN CONQUER YOUR HANG-UPS
Today’s problem is not necessarily tomorrow’s problem. Don’t incarcerate yourself by assuming it is. Resist self-labeling: “I’m just a worrier.” “Gossip is my weakness.” “My dad was a drinker; I guess I’ll carry on the tradition.” Stop that! These words create alliances with the devil. They grant him access to your spirit. It’s not God’s will that you live a defeated, unhappy life. Turn a deaf ear to the old voices and make new choices. “The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; yes, I have a good inheritance” (Ps16:6 NKJV). Live out of your inheritance, not your circumstances. God has already promised you victory and provided you with weapons for the fight. “Though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds” (2Co 10:3-4 NKJV). How did Joshua conquer Jericho? By using God’s strategy: “Take up the ark of the covenant and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the Lord” (Jos 6:6 NKJV). The ark of the covenant was the symbol of God’s presence. Joshua placed it in the middle of the procession. Every activity orbited around God. The secret of victory is to keep God center stage in your life, using the weapons of worship, Scripture, and prayer. Employ every tool God offers: Scripture memorization and petition. Turn off the TV and open the Bible more. Worry less and pray more. You can conquer your hang-ups by drawing daily on the presence of God.
