Dear Heavenly Father, I pray for each person here and that the Holy Spirit be our guide, speak to us and open our eyes, open our ears and open our hearts to the vision that you have purposed in our hearts, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
Your Words Name and Choose the Road You are On – Your words name the road you are on and will travel - not the road you want to be on, think you’re on, or might be on. No, they name the road you are on. Proverbs 18:20 “From the fruit of his mouth a man’s stomach is filled; with the harvest from his lips he is satisfied.”Speak ONLY the Road You are Traveling. If someone asks you for directions to a place they want to be, would you begin naming all the roads that they shouldn’t turn on or be on?
Never, ever speak what you don’t want. Don’t name a road you’re not intending to travel - for example: “I’m so out of shape”
a. If “out of shape” is the road you are traveling, then you are correct in saying, “I’m so out of shape.” Your very words will keep you on that road (out of shape). Your body, muscle tone, immune system, posture, etc. will actively react in conformance with your words and the condition you have named. You will indeed stay out of shape.
b. Rather, say, “I’m getting in better shape every day My stamina is increasing daily. I feel better every day. I’m gaining better breath and endurance. I’m excited about the improvements that are occurring.”
Folks, don't beat yourself up. Don't beat yourself up about how out of shape you are when you're running. You're doing it and that is an improvement in itself. Your self talk should not be negative and self-defeating. Be thankful and fully expect to get into shape and that you will improve every day. Redirect your mindset on what you are accomplishing.
God Bless,
