TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
Have you ever considered the
power of the statement, “I am”? What follows these two simple words will
determine what kind of life you live. “I am blessed. I am strong. I am
healthy.” Or, “I am slow. I am unattractive. I am stupid.” The “I am’s” that
are coming out of your mouth will bring either success or failure. All
through the day the power of “I am” is at work in our minds. Many times we
use the power of “I am” against us. We don’t realize how it’s affecting our
future.
Here’s the principle. What
follows the “I am” will always come looking for you. The good news is that
you get to choose what follows the “I am.” When you go through the day
saying, “I am blessed,” blessings come looking for you. “I am talented.”
Talent comes looking for you. You may not feel up to par but when you say, “I
am healthy,” health starts heading your way. “I am strong.” Strength starts
tracking you down. You’re inviting that into your life. Get up in the morning
and invite good things into your life. Declare “I am blessed. I am strong. I
am talented. I am disciplined. I am focused. I am prosperous.” And always
make sure God’s truth follows “I am”!
