YOUR GREATEST ENEMY

Do I deny the reality of evil? Not at all. I admit that there is an opposite to everything; even when we declare all the positive verses in the holy book we automatically acknowledge the alternative – negative thinking – evil.

So it is normal to run into enemies as we walk the journey of our lives. However, we need to know that God can give us victory over our enemies (2 Chr. 20:27).

What enemies have you encountered, so far, on the journey of your life?

In the journey of life we describe an enemy as anybody who diminishes your faith or confidence in yourself, in your career, in your dream(s), in your beliefs, and in almighty God!

A friend once told me that the people around me are not my enemy as I may have thought, but my strongest enemies are the negative thoughts that come into my mind. He admonished me to change my thoughts from negative to positive.

Therefore, who then is your greatest enemy? You may lament the fact that those closest to you do not give the encouragement you think they should. But nobody puts you down more than you do yourself. Nobody has rejected more of your best ideas than you have!

How many good ideas have come into your mind only to be discarded by you?

Feed your positive thoughts with some walk of faith. Believe in yourself and tell yourself that there is nothing impossible to accomplish in life. Fill your mind with beautiful affirmations and powerful promises that are abundant throughout the holy book. As a result, your journey of life will be productive, joyous, and worthwhile!

Think positive as you go into the New Year in the next 23 days.

Cheers
