21 Days to Overcome Stress

DAY 10 OF 21

God Knows Best


God has a perfect plan and will for your life. But, the devil has a plan as well. His plan is to keep you so busy and distracted from the primary issues of life that you live a run-down, worn-out existence rather than an abundant life.

The devil is an expert in trickery and in distraction. He does not tempt you with blatant evil but with things that seem good. Perhaps he will use something that appears momentarily good to call you away from God’s best for your life. What good thing is distracting you from God’s best today? Good things may wear you down, but God’s best will always strengthen you and bring peace to your life.

Maybe it is time for you to make some much-needed changes in your life. You may need to reorder your daily schedule or reprioritize your time commitments. Ask a friend to help you reorganize your life so you live abundantly and not worn out and run-down.

Often when I am feeling overwhelmed, I declare to the devil and all of his wimpy nincompoops, “You are not going to wear me down…I am going to wear you down with worship and the Word of God!” I encourage you to give that declaration a try and then begin to re-evaluate your choices so that you break the cycle of weariness in your life.


Making Changes

You were not created to be a stress-filled woman whose life is being frittered away at the altar of busyness. You were created for joy, peace, and eternal impact, not temporary distractions. Choose to spend time with the Lord rather than spending your day talking on the phone or playing computer games.

Speak Psalms and hymns and spiritual songs over your life rather than spouting opinions, gossip, and frustration. Purpose today that you will no longer invest yourself in urgent demands, but that you will devote yourself to eternal, important disciplines.

Trust me, you will only need to make a few strategic changes to replace your weariness with God’s perfect peace.

For I know the plans and thoughts that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘plans for peace and well-being and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. - Jeremiah 29:11 AMP
