You Have All You Need To Win Your Battles in Life. Stop Doubting and Start Believing.

Do you ever wonder how you will ever make it through your problems? Have you tried one thing after another and seem to fail each time. Do you sometimes believe that no one understands or really cares that you are suffering? Do you question if God is listening to your prayers?  If that is how you think and feel, today’s episode will give you hope and a new perspective on life.

In the difficulties of life, we sometimes focus more on our own pain and suffering than on the God who heals, delivers, and restores. In order to access the power you need to overcome your battles, this order must be reversed.  The focus should be more on  God who has the power to help you overcome than on yourself, the situation or your own lack and insufficiency.

Peter 5:6 instructs us to humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God and he will exalt us in due time. This means no matter what your situation or circumstance you are to trust God, be patient, and wait on his timing and his means of helping you through.

Zechariah 4:6 declares that it is.”Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit, says the Lord of hosts.” In other words there are limitations to our human efforts. Some things must be fought in the spiritual realm where God has the power to overcome the forces of darkness and you can be empowered to accomplish his purpose in your situation.

 The following Bible based affirmations will remind you that you have all you need to overcome your problems and achieve victory. Rehearse and recite them as often as you can. They will strengthen your faith and bring power to your walk with Christ. Tell yourself:

1.God knows me

“O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thoughts afar off.” Psalm 139:1-2 KJV

“Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; And in thy book all my members were written, Which in continuance were fashioned, When as yet there was none of them.”

Psalm 139:16 KJV

2.God loves me

“ But God demonstrates his own love towards us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Romans 5:8 NKJV

3.God hears me

“In my distress I called upon the Lord, And cried out to my God; He heard my voice from His temple, And my cry came before Him, even to His ears.”

Psalms 18:6 

John 5:14 says “Now this is the confidence that we have in him that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us and if we know that he hears us whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of him.”

4.God is with me

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.””

Joshua 1:9 NKJV

 2 Corinthians 1:20 states, for all the promises of God in him are yes and in him, amen to the glory of God through us.

5.God fights for me

“The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace.””

Exodus 14:14 NKJV

You know God fights for you because he has fought for his people from the beginning of time. He fought for the children  of Israel to release them from bondage in Egypt. He fought for king David when,as a child,  he confronted and killed a giant with a stone and a slingshot. He fought for Daniel in the Lion’s den. He fought for Paul and Silas when they were in prison, sang songs and prayed and were freed. He fought for you when you were in sin and he brought you to salvation. He is still fighting for you.

6.God will make a way for me

“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” Isaiah 43:19 KJV

Jeremiah 29:11  NIV says “ for I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord plans to prosper you and not to harm you plans to  give you hope and a future.” 

These six affirmations have the power to transform your mind and create a power shift to accomplish God‘s will for your life. Romans 12:2 states “And be not conformed to this world but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” They bring truth to the situation and allow you to place your faulty thoughts and negative emotions beneath  the truth of God‘s word and the power given you through the Holy Spirit. 

Therefore, you can trust God to see you through your hard times and confidently follow his lead.

“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”

Proverbs 3:5-6 

Matthew 16:24

“Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me
