If You Think There's Something Wrong With You, Think Again | A #FFWT Mashup Feb 14, 2023

Show notes

Day 30 | Fasting from, "What's Wrong With Me". The constant awareness of our “falling short” is where the devil and religion want to keep us. This keeps us defeated and hemmed in by shame, rather than liberated through our divine nature. You have been MADE the righteousness of God and, therefore, you don’t have to live in shame another day in your life.

How To Stop Stressing Today | A #FFWT Mashup Feb 13, 2023

Show notes

It's Day 29 of the FFWT and we're fasting from "I Feel Stressed Out". Stress is a powerful mindset that we are going to dismantle. It is a collection of thoughts or fears that beat down on your mind until they penetrate you and control your emotions, your health, and your relationships.

Let’s get free from this thought today!

Declare this: I am free from the power of stress. I don’t have to get rid of all my problems to get rid of stress. I have a table in the presence of my enemies. They have NO power over me. The Prince of Peace lives in me. I am certain I will make it. I am going to the other side. The battle is already won. Jesus did it all. My treasure is greater than my trouble, and I am above stress, and not underneath it, in Jesus’ Name!

Just Move Forward A Little | A #FFWT Mashup Feb 10, 2023

Show notes

Hey gang, today we’re fasting from the thought that says “I Feel stuck” (Day 26).

We’ve all thought that at times, but it’s a lie. There’s always a way out of what you’re in, or a way into what you’ve been kept out of.

When Jesus was tempted to not go to the cross, the Bible says, “He went forward a little . . .” (Mark 14:35 KJV). When you feel stuck, like there’s nothing you can do, just take a step. Don’t think about all the steps. Just take the next one. In a relationship, the first step may be just saying you’re sorry. If it’s finances, maybe it’s just cutting one area of spending or giving one extra offering. Move forward a little!

Let’s ditch this thinking today!

The #1 Characteristic Of A Successful Person | A #FFWT Mashup Feb 08, 2023

Show notes

Day 24 | Fasting from: "I can't control my emotions."

We all have emotions, but unfortunately sometimes THEY have us!

God created us to live with positive and healthy emotions. It’s the negative ones that can harm our lives, our relationships, and our future. The idea that we are “victims” of our emotions because of our past, our gender, our culture, our ethnicity, or our personality type has to be eliminated.

Feeling Bad Is Not The Answer | A #FFWT Mashup Feb 06, 2023

Show notes

It's Day 22 of our Fast From Wrong Thinking and we're fasting from, "I can't forgive myself." It's time to stop rehearsing what you did or didn't do. It’s done. It’s over. Now accept the second chance (or third or fourth…) that God offers. Philippians 3:13 says “Forgetting what lies behind, and reaching forward… ” Reaching forward starts in your thought life.

Let's ditch this thought for good.
