DOORS & THE SPIRIT OF LACK

What's up beautiful people and welcome back to another Word Up Wednesday

Your mid - week dose of inspo.


Introduction

Today, I would like to discuss how the spirit of "lack" uses your past experiences to enter your present and significantly impact your future.


Getting into my thoughts

Within the spiritual realm, time does not progress in a linear manner as we perceive it. Time is constantly flexible and dynamic, allowing for adjustments at any moment. Even events of the past, though they have already occurred, can still be influenced in a manner that impacts your present reality. The adversary achieves this by manipulating your thoughts and perception.




Consider this scenario: Have you ever found yourself peacefully going about your daily life, only to be suddenly consumed by thoughts of lacking, past negative interactions, or feelings of inadequacy from years ago that still linger today? Like, how those people treated you in that place, or how you weren't good enough 10 years ago so there is no way you are good enough today?


Have you ever paused to consider why your past is being used to torment you in your present? And why it causes such emotional turmoil? This is because there are certain aspects you need to understand in order to manage it and exercise your God-given authority to claim peace over your mind.


Let's get into solution


Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you - Luke 10:19
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. - Phillipians 4:6-7

#1 Grant yourself forgiveness by speaking out loud and saying "I forgive myself for x, y, and z because dwelling on past mistakes only fuels feelings of shame and guilt within you. Remember, as the saying goes, "Life and death are in the power of the tongue," so boldly declare, "I FORGIVE MYSELF" and truly believe it. Once you do this, it is accomplished.


#2 Understand God's perspective of you and ask for His perspective to align with yours. Keep in mind that God's intentions are for your success! They are positive and not negative, they aim to provide you with HOPE & a FUTURE. Affirm this truth to yourself regularly! The key is to truly have FAITH in it! Once you do, you will stop entertaining any negative thoughts that enter your mind, thus empowering yourself to control your own fate.


#3 Declare & Proclaim that any door from your past that remains open and is contributing to your feelings of shame, guilt, and scarcity will be shut in the powerful name of Jesus, as God has already pardoned you and you have forgiven yourself. Affirm to yourself that you are not lacking anything but are flourishing in accordance with God's plan. Declare that you possess Hope & a future. Proceed to seal those doors using your authoritative and life-affirming words. And it shall be accomplished.


By recognizing how the spirit of lack influences your reality, you can effectively halt its progress, eradicate it, and fully embrace your fresh starts, your current existence, and thrive in the anticipation of the future that God has revealed to you.


Living in a place where you know God's thoughts about you and taking control of your mind will fill you with a sense of possibility and light-heartedness.


Whenever you sense the presence of lack and its companions guilt and shame, pause for a moment and consider their point of view. It is always rooted in the past. Therefore, close those doors and embrace the present moment.


BECAUSE YOU DESERVE TO LIVE, A GREAT LIFE, - IT'S PARIS!
