It's a Bad Day to Believe a Lie


I CHOOSE TO WORSHIP ~ Rend Collective

Fear not [there is nothing to fear], for I am with you; do not look around you in terror and be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen and harden you to difficulties, yes, I will help you; yes, I will hold you up and retain you with My [victorious] right hand of rightness and justice. [Acts 18:10.] ~ Isaiah 41:10 AMPC

Over the past two weeks, the counselor at the girls’ school has been sharing insights with the staff about what’s going on—emotionally—so we’re better equipped to help ourselves and our community. She said, due to the changes that are coming at us so quickly, we’re struggling to adjust, causing anger and anxiety to both be on the rise. But she gave an antidote: “Anxiety loses its footing when certainty, or truth, steps in.”

It might be slow at first, but the more truth you feed your brain, the more you’ll believe it, and it will affect your life. She said to focus on Truths from God’s Word. Below, I’ve listed several. This isn’t a magic trick, but a brain shift. What you feed your brain will affect what it believes and cause your life to shift.

Here are some Truths to help, (from Experiencing Father’s Embrace by Jack Frost):
·         God is not ashamed to be my Father. ~ Hebrews 11:16
·         Father wants me to overflow with His love. ~ Ephesians 3:19
·         Even when I am wounded, Father sees me as beautiful and takes pleasure in me. ~ Psalm 149:4
·         My Father is so pleased with my being His child that He will never leave me.  He wants to meet all my needs. ~ Luke 15:31
·         I have been adopted and placed in my Father’s presence. ~ Ephesians 1:5
·         In God’s love, I am complete. ~ Colossians 2:10
·         In God’s love, I find grace and mercy. ~ Hebrews 4:16
·         Father’s perfect love for me displaces my fears. ~ 1 John 4:18
What lies have you been believing? There’s no good day to believe a lie, but today’s a great day to dispel one with the Truth. If your brain believes—and your life shifts towards—what you tell it, isn’t it better to tell it Truth?
