16-January     Seek Self Awareness

2 Corinthians 12:9  Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. (NLT)

What weakness can hold you back in the face of this promise? Do you think you are too old, young, unskilled, over-qualified, or shy? Imagine God noticing you and saying, “Oh no, I forgot about that college education (or age requirement or experience) and now the eternal destiny that I had planned, before the foundation of the earth, can’t happen. I blew it!” Don’t think so. There is nothing about you that can stop what God has planned from the beginning of time.

So change your mind about your  limitations” and let the power of Christ carry you through to the finish line. Never forget our God is able!

DECLARE THIS:
• I am not limited by my weaknesses. Christ is more than enough.
• I know that the God who made me will lead me to victory.
• By faith I receive from Christ all that I will ever need.

 

What stands between you and the promises of God? A bad habit? A hidden sin habit? A little resentment, unwillingness to forgive, or offense? Are you still procrastinating on some direction He’s given you? What are you waiting for? Throw down whatever is in the way!
Now is the time to really surrender all… let God have His way with you. He designed you and He has a perfect plan of blessing in mind for you. If you are clinging to anything He wants you to release, let it go. When we show up with empty hands and open hearts God fills us with blessings  beyond our wildest dreams. Abundant life is within your reach, in this life, and nothing you’re holding onto can compare to it!
DECLARE THIS:
• I receive whatever God has for me and know that it is good and only good.
• By faith I receive my inheritance in Christ and expect the blessing to manifest in my life.
• My treasure is in heaven and God’s promise is that I will receive abundant life now.
