Day 38 Reconciliation Fasting



Stop Taking Your Life for Granted



Today’s Scripture: I John 4:1-4

1Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 

 2Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 

 3And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 

 4Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.


Today’s Scripture Message:


“Why are we trying so hard to fit in when we were born to stand out?” – (from the motion picture What a Girl Want)  I am the greatness of my Father & so are you, my knowing is humbling so much so, I want to share with you, every day of my life, the magnitude of your placement. Nothing about your creation is average.  The simplicity of your make up is a PROMINENCE that is unmistaken.  You are made in the image of our Heavenly Father a provision of Grace by out Lord Jesus Christ…to know it is to OWN it.  Stop feeling as though you are less than who you TRULY are, your perception of yourself is the key to your success or failure.  You should not be swayed or dismayed; all that comes against you that is not of HIM is defeated, move in the faith that the blood covering has provided you.  Giving all glory and honor to God, in the name of Jesus Christ YOU HAVE VICTORY!!! 



Thought for the Day:

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in all of us. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” - Maryanne Williamson




Goal for the Day:

Trust in your PROMINENCE, the greatest gift you have received is a Lord who loved you so much, He laid down his life, that you may be spared. OWN your right as a child of the Father and live not another day taking for granted that which you received in love.

(From Pastor Gregory Dickow’s – Fast  From Wrong Thinking)

Today we’re fasting from the thought that says, “I’m okay with average.” What? NEVER!  You were meant to soar!  The idea that average is acceptable or ‘just getting by’ is enough, needs to be eradicated from our mindset and the core of our being.


Let's CHANGE IT TODAY:



  1. SEE average as your ENEMY.  You’ll merely tolerate life and ‘just get by’, until you decide that mediocrity and status quo: GOT TO GO. (2 Timothy 2:20-21)


  1. You are EXRAORDINARY! You are not an ‘average’, ‘everyday’ kind of person. You are made in the image of God to create, to build, to prosper. (Gen. 1:26, Jer.1:5, Jer. 29:11)

  1. There’s nothing in between ‘head’ and ‘tail’. You are the head ONLY. You are above ONLY and not beneath. (Deut. 28:13)

  1. Don’t bury. UN-BURY!!!!!  You have amazing treasures and talents. (Matt. 25:15) Everyone was given talent, but the ‘average’ guy buried his. DON’T bury the treasure in you. Excavate—by praying in the spirit, prophesying scriptures, and believing in what you have.

  1. Refuse to settle for the way things are. You have not reached your ceiling or your potential. You have greatness in you.

  1. Serve others. Listen---when you know there is greatness in you (2 Cor. 4:6, 1 John 4:4), it makes you secure and confident rather than boastful or arrogant. THEN, it’s easy to serve others to help make them better.

THINK IT & SAY IT:



I refuse to settle for mediocrity and an average existence. I’m not called to be average in my mind, body, finances or relationships. I am the head ONLY and not the tail. I call forth the treasure and talents in me, to produce and excel. I expect increase and believe I was created for excellence and supernatural achievement, in Jesus’ Name.

Some of the greatest challenges in life come from within your inner soul...remember today you arouse with a plan to change the world and others...stick to the idea of what you have and work with it...regardless of how you are debating the facts or situation...be head strong in your decision today…and the feeling of content will be displayed...don’t feel like you are by yourself in this puzzle...but realize we all have a connection in life...continuously remember the word humble today

 

Happy 91st Day of the New Year!!!

You Are Exactly Who You THINK You Are, Focus On the Unceasing Greatness in You!!!

Many Blessings!!!
