Topic: When to Turn Away.
Today’s Scripture: “Turn my eyes away from worthless things; preserve my life according to your word.” Psalm 119 verse 37, (NIV). New International Version.
Message: In order to live the life of victory God has promised, you have to be very selective about what you give your time and attention to. You have to recognize which thoughts to ignore, which comments to ignore, and sometimes, which people to ignore. Every “battle” that comes across your path is not a battle that you’re supposed to fight. Many battles are simply distractions to try to lure you off course. If that battle is not between you and your God-given destiny, it’s a battle you should ignore. Many people get thrown off course because they are always trying to straighten everyone else out or win their approval. But if that’s your focus, you are wasting valuable time and energy that you should be using to pursue your dreams. Turn away from that distraction! You don’t need the approval of everyone around you; you only need God’s approval! Friend, it’s very freeing when you realize you don’t have to fight every battle. You don’t have to straighten people out. You don’t have to pay somebody back. Instead, focus on what matters, focus on God and His Word so you can live in peace and happiness every day of your life!
Prayer for Today: Father, thank You for ordering my steps. Thank You for planning good things for me. Help me to discern the things I should ignore. Help me to avoid distractions as I focus my heart and mind on You today in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Prophetic Declaration: It was John Knox, a 16th-century Scottish reformer that said “one person with God is a majority”. A single “you” with God’s support becomes a formidable powerful force that cannot be ignored here on earth and in heaven. From today, you shall receive GRACE to turn away from every distraction that prevents you from seeking God. Wisdom not to major in the minor, but focus on thing that matters is released to you in Jesus mighty name. Amen.
JESUS SAID: “Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. Revelation chapter 22 verse 12 (NIV). Are you ready for the second coming of Jesus Christ? Please give your life to Jesus.
