Habits For Life:
We are going to talk about what are you passionate about?  There are boundary breaking keys that you can use to live a more fulfilled life.  Do you have crossroads in your life where who you were created to be has been compromised?  The first identity theft was in the Garden of Eden.  Satan crept in and prompted Adam and Eve to make decisions that changed who they were created to be.  God created you for living a life of victory.  He did not intend for you to carry around the pain of wrong decisions or traumatic events that have gotten you into wrong habit patterns which have caused you to lose your passion for life.  How many of you when you see a Nun walking around immediately know what her lifestyle is, who she is passionate about and what she stands for?  Often we get so locked into habits of wrong thinking that we "wear" our circumstances and people know what is going on inside of us without us saying anything!  There is great news though.  In just a few minutes a day, you can sit down and take time to analyze what thought patterns are running through your mind, what pain from your past tried to raise its head in your relationships today.  I have written a book on Detoxing your mind so that you can lighten your load and walk with a leap in your step!  Realize that little events can become big roadblocks in your future if not recognized and released. 

Every day is a new day to step into greatness and establish new habits.  Jesus set his face towards Jerusalem to set the captive free.  Are you captive?  A few minutes a day can start you on your way to the happiest days of your life!

Hidden Treasures

Hidden Treasures:
Did you know you have a treasury "chest" hidden inside of you if you are born again? 
Colossians 2:3 says "All the treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Him." It is so important to acknowledge with our faith words what God through Christ Jesus has made available to us.  Remember, the Bible tells us that getting wisdom is the principle thing.  Take time to ask the Holy Spirit what you need to know to settle any questions or help you be the best you He created you to be.  The answer lies within.  I remember one day many years ago my husband and I were riding a motorcycle to the seaside for the day.  We had been praying about direction to increase our business and claiming God's promise in Isaiah 60:11 "Your gates will be open continually. They will not be closed day or night, So that men may bring to you the wealth of the nations...."
As we crossed over a bridge in a lovely village, I saw a large facility that was popular throughout the UK and I tapped my husband on the back and said, "We need to get our products in those stores!  In the natural it seemed impossible as we were little kids on the block, but one Word or prompting from the Lord acted on can change your world and subsequently family, friends and colleagues!  The very next day my husband launched a campaign to get us an audience with the head of the Company. We did face some pretty enormous obstacles at times but God honored our faith, perseverance, production of high quality products, and excellent, beyond the norm, service and the rest is history!
I believe God has wisdom and knowledge inside of you just waiting to be tapped into to take you to a new level of success and victorious living.  Proverbs 8:20 "I walk in the way of righteousness, along the paths of justice, bestowing wealth on those who love me and making their treasuries full."  This scripture is talking about Wisdom who lives inside of You!

What an Amazing Gift!
We all realize when someone gives or "gifts" us with "something" whether it is a material present or a kind word, compliment or wisdom about a situation, we each have the choice of accepting the "gift" or rejecting it.  It is much the same with gifts from the Holy Spirit. It says in 1 Corinthians 2:16 We have been given the mind of Christ!  Unless we acknowledge and focus our attention on this truth and fact, it will not be fully activated to bring about change and breakthroughs in our lives. 
I know there have been more times than I like to think about when I
have given people gifts and it seemed that they were neither appreciated or utilized.
If you think about it, what you give whether time, money, opportunities, material gifts, etc. these represent a part of who you are an what your life represents.
In the above Scripture, we have the confident truth that we have been gifted with the mind of Christ! As believers, it is important to engage and access this truth by faith so that we make mindful decisions based on who lives in us and acknowledge what is available in our decision making process every single day.  Just like, as mentioned earlier, when we have used our time, love, care, resources for others it makes us genuinely happy and pleased the recipient is benefiting from the gift.....As you can imagine, it pleases the Holy Spirit for us to benefit from Jesus' gift to us. The actual meaning of Mind in the Hebrew language is to conceive, a thing framed and imagination.  Just think, you have been gifted with the imagination of Christ. Stop and "conceive" that!
Power Confession:  I acknowledge that I have been given the amazing gift of the Mind of Christ.

I accept it. Thank you Lord!
