Good Morning!
 
Anyone who has made a trip with their "kids", has probably heard them say...."Are we there yet?, Are we there yet?".  I know that some of you reading this may not have children, but all of us are "God's kids", and we are on a journey toward finding out how to "simplify" our lives.  We would like to make it a "quick trip", but we need to remember that when we are learning about the things of God we must be patient!  His way of getting from point "A" to point "B" is a process....one step at a time.....one day at a time!  I know that I repeat myself many times, but we "learn" from "repetition". God, Himself, is the one that set up this "principle".
 
Now, that we have established that, I told you that I would share with you some of the ways that the Lord has helped me in the area of our "thoughts".  So, referring back to the previous "encouragements".... When the devil starts playing his "tape" concerning your past or your future, here are some things that you can do>>>>
 
First of all, you need to recognize where it is coming from and begin to "resist" him immediately!  Open your mouth and tell him..."My past is under the blood, and my future is in God's hands!" I encourage you to say that "out loud" right now....Say this right now....."My past is under the blood, and my future is in God's hands!". Then keep on saying that over and over again, instead of listening to his "tape" over and over again!
 
Something else you can do, especially at night when you go to bed, is ....put on a Praise tape or cd, and that will "drown out" the voice of the enemy!  According to Psalms 8:2 and related to Matthew 21:16, God says that Praise is the "strength" that stops and silences the avenger!  It does not get any more "simple" or " powerful" than that!!!
 
More to come tomorrow................stay tuned in>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
Have a Blessed Day!!          (Keep it Simple!)              In His Love, Luanne
