If it’s 63 degrees and too cold, what do you do? Do you go downstairs, switch off the furnace breaker and open the windows? No! You change the thermostat. Reset your thermostat and relearn and reprogram the correct thinking. Words create an environment for increase or decrease.

Words Create

Thoughts attract, words create, and faith actions begin the manifestation.

What Do You Want?

When you know what you want, you start attracting it! To get what you want, keep a list of goals in front of you to sharpen your focus.

Mark 11:24
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

Hebrews 11:1-3
Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

Your Outer World: Shaped by Your Inner World

What you have on the outside comes from what you think about, dream about, and how you concern yourself.

Proverbs 23:7
For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.

Setting the Direction of Your Future

Fruit is the result of a root. Planning for the future is vital to producing the things you desire.

You will never rise above your inside image

Something I’m known for saying at all my seminars is this: “Your inner kingdom determines your outer kingdom.”

In New York, a group of Christians went to a run-down apartment building and, as a gesture of goodwill, fixed it all up. It was beautiful. The people should have been proud of their newly renovated home. Instead, in less than two years, it was all run down again. You can get a new set of clothes, but if you don’t change your inside image, you’ll be back in rags before long.

Until we change our image on the inside, we will stay the same as we are. That’s why Paul told us to renew our minds (Romans 12:1–2). Don’t be like the ten spies with a self-image problem. Be like Joshua and Caleb, who knew that with God, they were more than winners.

Do you see yourself as a victim or as a conqueror?  If you see yourself as a victim of your age, your background, your family history, your past failures, your environment, or your culture, change it now! See my posts Be a Conqueror and 10 Traits of a Conqueror.

Use God’s Word to discover everything He has said about you. Find out who you are in Christ and take a few minutes every day, with your eye of faith, to see yourself as the conqueror God has created you to be.

Tap into God’s reality to overcome your present circumstances. You can live and walk in victory! For further study, check out the audio series Creating Your New Reality.
