21 Days to Overcome StressSample

God's Strategy

I use my words, specifically from God’s Word, as strategic weapons of warfare that display my faith in an all-powerful God.

Worry is always a waste of time and of valuable energy. There are prayers to be prayed and people who need to be loved…there are books to be written and kindness that needs to be shown.

When you worry, Satan grins. I refuse to make Satan grin! Instead, I am determined to make Satan worry. He better be worried about the women who live today because we are one powerful fighting force and we will stand toe to toe and nose to nose with the accuser of the sistern and declare, “You are going down!”

YOU’VE GOT THE POWER!

Your mind needs to receive the message that you are one powerful chick! Did you know that the devil knows that you are powerful? He just doesn’t want you to know that you are powerful!

Declare it today…out loud…and unafraid: “I am a woman of power! I will not run scared! I will press forward into all that God has for me!” There…didn’t that feel good?

Most of us are not afraid of the big, bad wolf or of the dark or even of sudden and widespread disaster, but what truly frightens us - rejection, failure, and people.

As women who love and trust God, we must not make decisions based on fear but based on faith in a mighty big God who is well able to take care of every detail. Let’s choose to never again begin a sentence with the words, “I’m afraid…”

Knowing that you have not been given a spirit of fear from God, what has God given to you? He has given you a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind.

If you desire healthy, vital relationships and a vibrant, faith-filled life, you will abide and not be stressed out! If your heart’s desire is a delightful smorgasbord of friendships, then you will trust the Lord wholeheartedly and refuse to choose worry over what the Word says. Remember, YOU’VE GOT THE POWER!
