There’s a big difference between “knowing” someone from afar and knowing them intimately, right?
You have the ability to know your spouse, children, family, and friends because you have spent time in their actual presence, not just seeing a pic of them on the red carpet.
You have spent time cultivating a relationship with them by listening intently to their words.
They have made vows to you or declarations of love or friendship and if someone were to make statements about that person you would know if those statements were true or not because you know them intimately.
It’s the same with God. It is impossible to be in a close relationship with Him apart from His Word because God’s Word IS God!
Thus it is vital to become better acquainted with His Word every single day and to feed on it like FAITH FOOD (or simply what we BELIEVE) in order to get it built up on the inside of us.
If someone were to tell you something about your friend or loved one that you knew wasn’t true you would easily reject that lie. And sometimes our own brains like to look for relationship issues and perceive some trouble that may not even be there.
The best thing to do is to go to that person and ask for clarification, right?
That’s what we are doing when we go to the Word. We are learning more about God’s character AND what HE says about US! Because no matter what our minds or others tell us, His thoughts about us are the MOST important because they have the power to set us FREE!
Whatever issue you may be struggling with in your life, it will ALWAYS go back to THREE IMPORTANT TRUTHS; who God is, who you now are IN HIM, and what His Word says about YOU!
Whenever we are feeling upset about ourselves or a situation we are facing, we have either not heard what God said about us, or we heard it and laid it down to pick up a lie instead.
❤ Recognizing this is the first step to changing it and bringing our hearts and minds back in line with God’s truth. ❤
As a coach I LOVE to help my clients remember God’s truth for their lives. Because when we are dealing with pain and find ourselves in survival mode, it’s difficult to decipher which thoughts are true and which aren’t. We can become so overwhelmed with what we FEEL, we often don’t stop to figure out what we’ve been THINKING. But every FEELING comes from a THOUGHT and if we want to FEEL DIFFERENTLY we must begin to THINK DIFFERENTLY.
If you’re ready to FEEL BETTER, reach out today and let’s set up a time to chat about how I help women get FREE! God’s best ALREADY belongs to you! ~Be Blessed, Jenny xoxo
