Your outlook is somewhat like your attitude....it is your point of view. How you consider a thing. Your standpoint. We all take a stand....the question is what are we standing for? More than that....what are you standing on?
Are you standing on God and His promises? Or are you standing on shaky ground. When your ground is shaky, there is no stability. God wants us stable in our thoughts, in our beliefs, and in our walk with Him. He wants us to have full assurance and reliance on Him and His word. You can't take a stand if you don't understand God and His promises.
You must know the source of your faith in order to put full reliance in what you say you believe. Complete trust and confidence says you are standing on "sure" ground. Sure means unfailing....never disappointing. And that's what God is....he will never fail you or disappoint you.
It's time to look around....to look at the ground we are standing on. Is it "sure" or is it like sinking sand? Maybe you see cracks. Little places where there is doubt or unbelief. It time to "shore up" in the Word. In other words, place your trust and belief on God and what He said. If there is anything that is not lining up with the Word....then it should have no place in your life. Fill the cracks of doubt and unbelief with trust and assurance of who God is. Fill them with faith, patience, love, and joy.....knowing that God's word is true and if you stand on it ....IT SHALL COME TO PASS!
We tend to resist change but sometimes God requires change in order for us to get to the next level without slipping, falling, or failing.
