Simplify Life
You can speak out of your mouth what you have every day because that is what you are seeing in front of you it looks factual it looks real however if you are a child of God then we are to be led by the word of God in the Holy Spirit quite simply because that is Gods intended plan for us and its why He sent Jesus His only son to live here on earth to teach and show us how to live from our spiritual inner man rather than from the flesh man.
When we believe what Gods, word says then use the word according to what you want to have and begin to speak it out in faith in line to what God has promised you in His word, in other words come into agreement with what God says.
Romans 10:16
For they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah has said “Lord who has believed our report”.
If we are constantly saying or doing things contrary to what you want to change then you are training your heart for deceit.
It’s the word of God that changes our circumstances.
Mark 4: 18-19
The ones sown among thorns they are the ones who hear the word; then the cares and anxieties of the world and distractions of age, and the pleasure and delight of false glamour and the desires of other things creep in and choke it and it becomes fruitless.
If you let them, then those trivial pursuits will hold you down and keep you back from soaring with God in the eternal things. They will choke out the word that are planted in your heart and leave you without faith and without power this is what Mark 4 is talking about.
We can spend so much time doing or caring what others think of us and all father God wants us to do is mature in our faith and enjoy the journey and we seem to fill our lives with other stuff. Remember the lockdown I believe part of that was for us to reassess our lives for the biggest majority did not know what to do with themselves we are a people who need to be occupied we do not know how to sit still.
Mathew 6: 25-33
Therefore, I say to you, do not worry about your life what you will eat or what you will drink
Take no thought.
There is nothing more important than spending time with Father and in the word remember what he said to Joshua meditate on my word day and night and God is the same today as he was yesterday, he does not change.
James 3 Read whole chapter.
Teaches us to control our tongue.
How do we do that by lining up the circumstance we are in with the word of God and speaking it out in faith.
By spending time with Him.
Hebrews 11:1
Faith is the substance and the evidence of things not yet seen.
Whenever you are asked to take on a new project count the cost before making the commitment.
Is it from God, can I afford this spiritually can I spare the hours for this is it costing me time I could spend with God or my family.
Your aim is not to please you or the church or other people it’s to first of all please your creator that’s your way through life He is your mainstay, yet He seems to be placed as a last resort in many a person’s life.
Hebrews 12:1
I lay aside every weight which so easily besets me.
Walking in obedience and fellowship with God is the good life.
Psalm 89:34
My covenant I will not break, nor alter the word that has gone from my lips.
Psalm 138:2
I will worship toward your Holy Temple and praise your name. for your loving kindness and your truth. For you have magnified your word above your name.
