Understanding We Are Not Weak and Powerless. God Has Called Us To Walk In His Power and To Understand He Is Well Able To Do Whatever Needs To Be Done In Our Lives.

Did you get up today with an attitude of expectation?   When you expect something, you anticipate it happening.   You hope for it, look for it, and wait for it to happen.   So often we get up with an attitude of fear.  Fearful about the outcome of our situation.   Remember, God did not give you a spirit of fear.   He doesn't want us to be timid and scared.   He filled us with His Spirit and we have to recognize that we are full of power, love, and we have a sound mind.

When your mind is sound, you have the capacity to think, to reason, and to understand.   God told us what to think on.   He said for us to think on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and of a good report.    We have to think according to God's plan and stop concentrating on the things that are meant to induce fear in our hearts and minds.

We have to understand that God wants us to walk in love.   The Bible says that He is love.   So when we walk in love, we walk in Him.   We exhibit his attributes and we have His attitude concerning the people and the things in this life.   

God also said that He has filled us with His power.   We are not weak and powerless vessels.   Even when we feel weak in the natural, God said that He is our strength during those times.     God never called us to walk in our own power and ability.   He called us to walk in His power and to know that He is well able to do whatever needs to be done in our lives.  

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION

Philippians 4:8 

King James Version (KJV)

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
