T.O.D.A.Y.'S ENCOURAGEMENT for Sept.12, 2003
T.O.D.A.Y.
Ministries Good Morning! There is a "phrase" that we hear a lot, and I use this, myself....."get over it!" When things don't go like I want them to, or when someone "offends" me, or I feel some kind of "opposition", "hurt" or "disappointment"....I just say to myself, "Luanne, get over it!" You know what?....this is "scriptural"! This is exactly what we should be saying and doing! The Bible tells us, in Deuteronomy 28:13, that God wants us to be "above" and not "beneath"....well, the words "above"....and "over" are synonymous. Simply put, it means that we are on "top" of the situation! Every professional "wrestler" knows that when they are on top of their "opponent", they have the "advantage". (Getting the picture?) Ephesians 6:12 says that "we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities and against powers in the "spiritual realm"......and we know from The Word, that we have been raised up and seated with Jesus, far "above" all principalities and powers of this world! So, instead of "getting into resentment", just tell yourself to "get over it"! When you do this, you will put yourself in the place that God wants you to be....."above and not beneath"! This way, you "win" and the "enemy" loses! Have
a Blessed Weekend!! In
His Love, Luanne
