Many people strive to do the will of God, only to be frustrated, and often confused. Can we ever be SURE of the will of God? We can. And I believe this will help…

Ever heard that one? You haven’t sinned if you have said it or thought it; but it’s a mentality that needs to be eliminated. “You just have to accept IT the way IT is.” NO, NO, NO.

Accompanying thoughts include: “Things just might not turn around for me.” “They’re not going to get much better.”

With all that’s going on in our lives and our world, we often wish it would all just stop. We need to look at pressure, trials and problems in a WHOLE NEW WAY…

I don’t have…the right job; the right relationships; the education I need; the money I need; the happiness I need, etc. And the hits just keep on rolling.
I am convinced that the more we focus on what we don’t have in life, the more we will miss out on. The more we focus on what we do have, the more will be attracted to us.

The scarcity or ‘poverty’ mentality says: “There’s just not enough for everybody.” It’s a mentality that also thinks: someone else’s success is a threat to my own; or my success is a threat to others. This is nonsense. This is what causes greed, jealousy and unhealthy competition. When we think ‘there isn’t enough,’ we become stingy and reluctant to give. As a result, we paralyze our own harvests.

Yesterday there was so much I wanted to share that I decided to split it up and share the rest today. You can look at life through a ‘problem’ lens or a ‘solution’ lens. If you’re looking for problems, you will find them. And if you’re looking for solutions, you will find them. Decide where to place your focus. Let’s shift our focus onto solutions. As we change our thinking, we will change our world!

What I mean by this is simply: you must choose to live life as a problem solver, not a problem ‘reporter’. It’s one thing to ‘report’ the news, but it’s another to MAKE the news. The problem-mentality just sees and reports the problem. The solution-mentality solves the problem. Winston Churchill said, “A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.”

We’ve all lost something at one time or another in our lives. If it hasn’t been money, it’s been time, or relationships, opportunity or HOPE. We’ll today we begin to GET IT BACK!
We must abstain from the thought that we can’t recover; or ‘we’ll never know great days like we did in the past’; ‘I’ve lost too much to recover.’
Let’s CHANGE our THINKING TODAY:
1. Let this thought permeate your mind: God is a God of restoration. Joel 2:25-26…‘I will the restore the years that have been lost.’ Whether it’s the stock market, bad decisions, what others have done to you—God will restore.
2. Get rid of the mentality of “settling.” We must refuse to settle—the 10 lepers wouldn’t settle for their leprosy. They cried out to Jesus. The woman with the demon-possessed daughter wouldn’t take no for an answer. Bartimeus wouldn’t stop shouting until he recovered his sight. REFUSE to settle for the way it is.
3. Realize God WANTS you to go to him, and ask him to avenge you. In Luke 18, the unjust judge avenged the widow because of her persistence. HOW MUCH MORE WILL GOD AVENGE HIS CHILDREN!!!!!! (Luke 18:6-7)
4. All the promises of God are YES. (2 Corinthians 1:20) He has promised restoration and recovery—so ask Him for it TODAY. God wants you to recover more than you do. Believe this.
5. Believe the promise: the thief has to repay 7-fold of what he’s stolen. (Proverbs 6:31) The thief = the devil, time, the economy, fear. These are all thieves that you can expect to give back, supernaturally what has been lost in your life.
6. Re-position your thinking for expectation. 90% of profits in the world made between 1980 and 2000 went to 1.5 % of the people. That means 98.5% weren’t expecting much! Start expecting.
7. Expect recovery! “You shall surely overtake your enemies and you shall recover all.” (1 Samuel 30:8)
THINK IT & SAY IT:
I will recover all that has been lost in my life. I expect the restoration of lost relationships, lost money, lost hope and lost opportunities. I will not settle for loss and lack. God will avenge me. He will restore. I ask Him and expect Him to avenge me of all that has been lost in my life. I call forth a seven-fold return of what has been taken from me, In Jesus’ Name.
It’s on my heart to re-visit this theme because so many people are anxious and worried about the economy, and we MUST deal a death blow to these anxious thoughts.
Crisis hotlines and therapists are being flooded by the increase of anxiety, particularly over finances. There is an obvious connection between financial distress and emotional stress, depression, insomnia, migraines, and increased suicidal thoughts. Whether you are affected by the economy or not, ANXIETY MUST GO.
