Daily Devotional - Sunday blessing for overcoming negative thinking 7/16/2017

Listen to "Daily Devotional: Sunday Blessing for Overcoming Negative Thinking" on Spreaker.

Hello Beloveds,
Thank you for all the love and support ya'll are sending me! Ya'll are wonderful and I thank God for each and every one of you - may God bless you, in Jesus Name, Amen. 

As promised, let me share with you how I use the weapon of the Word of God in my life daily. They are short prayers I say out loud - Yes, I said daily. Not telling you what to do or how to do it.  I am just sharing what works for me and now God's directing me to share with you -- Because HE loves you! ;-)  So with that said, let's get started...

In Jeremiah 29:11, God says to Israel, "I know the plans that I have for you...plans for good and not for evil". There are different wording in the different translations: "plans to prosper you" and "not for calamity to give you a future and a hope".  What I did: I made it my own with God by saying, 
"Lord, I thank You that You know the plans You have for me, plans of good and not of evil, plans of prosperity and not of calamity, to give me a future and a hope. In Jesus name, Amen." 

I did the same for when dealing with health issues and with all the attacks I would get that are fearful, negative thoughts. You know those thoughts, "what would happen if I were to die?". Terrible thoughts, but I found peace with making scripture personal for me. So whenever the Bible said, "you," I replaced it with "I." This made things so much easier to adapt for me. Kinda like making my own proclamation. And I have many of them. Don't worry, over time I will share as directed. :-) 
Here's what I say when those disturbing thoughts come in: 
"I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord, in Jesus Name, Amen!" 
This was changed to make it personal for me from Psalm 118:17, which I have memorized it this way for me. For I use it a lot.  Hope this helps. Now go and enjoy what's left of your day! :-) God Bless you!
