In the morning before you go anywhere
You get up and you make a decision I belong to God, I don't belong to myself and when I go
Out when I go out of this bedroom
I start dealing with my family when I go out the front door and I start dealing with society
I am a personal representative of the Lord Jesus Christ, and I need to put on behavior
That's going to represent him
I have the mind of Christ I have the Spirit of God in me.
I don't have the privilege or the rights, which is not really a privilege to go out and just act like everybody else
And my real purpose in being here is not to please myself it's to represent God
and draw other people to him
through my godly
behavior
If you get up every morning and do nothing
but think about all your mistakes and all your problems and how you messed up yesterday and
how bad you feel
And about everything you don't have in life
I can almost promise you that you will not be able to go out and be nice to anybody
You've got to wake up in the morning and you got to think some things on purpose
Don't just think and meditate on everything that the devil tries to drop in your head
You begin to think like God wants you to think and you can do your own thinking
you don't have to just think whatever the devil offers you you can do your own thinking
And one of the things that will help you is to talk out loud
Get up every morning drop down on your knees by the side of your bed right away and just say Jesus
Jesus Jesus Jesus help me today behave the way you want me to behave
You know you work for God you're on his payroll
If you go out and do what you're supposed to everyday, you'll get your paycheck. God will take care of you
Come on, I'm talking to you
God will take care of you
We all work for God
But let me tell you something. You're not going to defeat the devil laying on your couch watching soap operas and eating doughnuts
We need to learn how to live with intentionality
That needs to be one of the first laws
Of our living and we need to realize it's one of the first rules of success intentionality
We have to do things on purpose
We can't just wait and see what falls on us
We need to do it on purpose. You do what you can do
You do what you know to do that. That God has taught you to do
And then God will always do what you cannot do
Do you hear me?
You do something to sow some seed so God can do the part that you cannot do
What you're facing maybe bigger stronger more powerful
But when you refuse to worry when you refuse to live stressed out
Instead you stay in peace
Thanking God that he's fighting your battles knowing that he's in control
You are showing God by your actions that you're trusting him
David said though I walk through
The valley of the shadow of death. I will fear no evil
God is not just with you on the mountaintops
He's with you in the valleys when you're going through things
He knows what you're up against the scripture says God is concerned about what concerns you
A sparrow doesn't fall to the ground without God knowing about it
How much more is God concerned about what's happening in your life
Trust him live from a place of peace
This is a decision
We have to make on a daily basis because every day there's something to worry about there's some reason to get upset
All through the day keep this phrase close to your heart God's got this
He's concerned about me. He's working in my life. He's bigger than my enemies. He's lining up the right people
He's arranging things in my favor
That attitude of faith is what allows God to do amazing things
