My Health This Morning 26th July 2019

This morning I awoke with pains in my stomach and chest and feeling nauseated, and I asked God to guide me too an answer to ease the pain.

I have a book by Louise Hay "Heal Your Body" but I haven't paid much attention to it because of what some ladies said at church.

But this morning I was guided to see what it had to say about theses pains. I was trying to look for Hiatus Hernia but it wasn't in the book so i looked up Stomach problems.

Here's what the old thought pattern for stomach problems was. Also under stomach problems I had to look up the thought pattern for Gastritis. Which I do have.

Stomach: 

Old Thought Pattern: Dread, Fear of the new. Inability to assimilate the new.

New Thought Pattern: Life agrees with me, I assimilate the new every moment of every day. All is well.

Gastritis: 

Old Thought Pattern: Prolonged uncertainty. A feeling of Doom.

New Thought Pattern: I love and approve of myself. I am safe.

Then I don't know why but I google Louise hay Hiatus Hernia because it was that what was giving me all this pain,

"Dear Louise,

and I found this 😁

I’d really appreciate it if you would tell me a probable cause and new thought pattern for Hiatus Hernia and acid reflux. -Lynne"

Dear Lynne,

Hiatus hernia is creating and carrying mental burdens that make it impossible for you to relax. The same with acid reflux; it’s just fearful thoughts that tie your stomach up in knots.

 I may sound like a broken record saying the same thing over and over, but most of our problems come from not allowing ourselves to breathe deeply and fully, and refusing to stay in the now.

Many, many times during the day, and before you go to sleep, take slow, deep breaths. Bring your attention to the present moment. Don’t think about the past or future.

Say to yourself: In this moment all is well. I am safe. There is nowhere I have to go and nothing I have to do. I relax my body and my mind. I am grateful for this moment.

This will break the pattern of incessant worry.

Our need of supervision may someday come to an end if we silence the toxic voices that come from within

If it was too easy!!!!!

Stay in the game till it's over Wednesday 3rd July 2019 'The Lord is the strength of my life.' Psalm 27:1 NKJV

Author Jon Gordon says: 'There was a time [as children] when we jumped from the jungle gym and went on roller coaster rides.

No goal was unattainable. Then [when we grew up] the doubters dissuaded us from going after our dreams..."You're crazy...it's too hard...play it safe...dreams weren't meant for people like us."

They instilled their insecurities in us...and with so many people saying we can't...and so few saying we can, we let fear into our lives.

We're so scared of losing what we have that we don't go after what we want.

We hold on so tightly to the status quo that we never experience what could be...I call this "playing to lose".

We see it in sports. When a team has the lead, they start thinking about how not to lose instead of how to win.

They play safe and scared while the other team takes chances, plays without fear, and wins.

David said, "The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid" (Psalm 27:1 NKJV)?

Living a life [of faith] means overcoming fear and adopting a "play to win" mindset...one that says even if you do fail you won't give up or let your dreams die.

Success isn't automatically given to us, it's pursued with all the energy and sweat we can muster.

Obstacles and struggles are part of life...they make us appreciate success.

If everything came easy we'd never know how it feels to succeed. (This is exactly what I was thinking yesterday. If life was to easy...it would be too easy to forget God)

Obstacles were meant to be overcome. Fear was meant to be conquered. Success was meant to be achieved.

They're part of life, and those who succeed refuse to give up till the game is over.'

Perfection Could Never Earn It

Perfection could never earn it

You give what we don’t deserve

And You take the broken things

Am And raise them to glory

I was listen to a song called " You are my Champion" and these lyrics stood out because I was at addation on Thursday and Debbie pointed out I wanted things to be perfect but we know we can never have perfection !!!!

Here is the rest of the lyrics....

YOU ARE MY CHAMPION // Bethel Worship // ft Dante Bowe

Lyrics:

Verse 1 

I've tried so hard to see it
Took me so long to believe it
That you choose someone like me
To carry your victory

Perfection could never earn it
You give what we don't deserve it
And you take the broke things
And raise them to glory

Chorus 
You are my Champion 
Giants fall when you stand undefeated
Every battle you've won

I am who you say I am
You crown me with confidence
I am seated in the heavenly place undefeated
With the one who has conquered it all

Verse 2
Now I can finally see it
You're teaching me how to receive it
So let all the striving cease
This is my victory

Chorus 
You are my Champion 
Giants fall when you stand undefeated
Every battle you've won

I am who you say I am
You crown me with confidence
I am seated in the heavenly place undefeated
With the one who has conquered it all

Bridge
When I lift my voice and shout
Every wall comes crashing down
I have the authority
Jesus has given me

When I open up my mouth
Miracles start breaking out
I have the authority
Jesus has given me

Chorus 
You are my Champion 
Giants fall when you stand undefeated
Every battle you've won

I am who you say I am
You crown me with confidence
I am seated in the heavenly place undefeated
With the one who has conquered it all

Standing on His Promises

This morning I decided to open a little book I have called "MY BOOK OF BIBLE PROMISES" and I opened it at page 59. 

The Scripture that stood out was Psalm 111:10 "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and who follow His precepts have good understanding". It was under : Discerning Right from Wrong.

and it reminded me of  the scripture for the  23rd of June. I loved it so much I made it my screen saver. 

But whe I did look at my phone it wasnt Psalm 111:10, it was Proverd 1:7 that was the verse for the 23rd June.

the two of them are quite similiar

Proverb 1:7  Knowledge begins with fear and respect for the Lord, but stubborn fools hate wisdom and refuse to learn.

Psalm 111:10 Wisdom begins with fear and respect for the Lord.Those who obey him are very wise. Praises will be sung to him forever.
