The Importance Of A Champion's Mentality by Victoria Osteen

One of the best strategies of a great coach is to get his team thinking in the right direction. A great coach builds his team up and helps them believe in themselves. When his team goes out on the field, it's not only about their ability; it's about their attitude, mindset, and internal dialogue. They will do their best when they go out feeling like winners.

In the same way, you should go out every day feeling like a winner. You'll do best in life when you have a champion's attitude because of what you believe about yourself. Stay in the habit of speaking positive, faith-filled words over your life because a healthy self-image is one of the greatest assets you can have. It will not only cause you to rise higher, but it will inspire others around you to live at their best, too.

Your life is so important that you can't afford to live with a negative and defeated mindset. The way you live your life matters!It's like tossing a stone into a pond and it sends ripples across the water—your life "ripples out" and has influence on those around you. You may not think you have that much impact, but your life sets an example. Whether you realize it or not, you are influencing the people in your life even in the most subtle ways. Remember, influence is the power to produce an effect without an apparent exertion. In other words, just by living your life, you are producing an effect.

People are constantly watching and learning from our example, whether positive or negative, and we are responsible for how we influence those around us.

Today, focus on keeping a champion's mentality. Recognize that the way you see yourself matters and influences those around you. Choose to set yourself in the right direction and help those around come up higher in every area of their lives.

But you, beloved, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [make progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], praying in the Holy Spirit (Jude 1:20, AMP).

I am not tired.

My movers are late so Im gona post this blog now.

Oh boy! Im still hyper.

My agent screwed up which left us nothing to stay till the 5th of April.

Yesterday, I slept around 2am cuz. That was the only time we found a cheap hostel which the agent had provided for us temporarily.

I had a restless night maybe because of the new place and woke up around 6am cuz I needed to get back to our previous place to pick up all my things. No choice.

I asked Jesus to help me fix my things cuz Im gona have to do it all by myself since my partner is at work and cant take a leave.

Fastforward to this moment.

Well... I'm sitting and waiting for the movers come.

And

I'm not tired. At all!
Thank you Jesus!

Still got a lot of energy in me.
I cleaned our room well for a nice turnover for the next tenant
And it felt good!

One of God's promises as His Beloved is that He will renew my strenght/ youth like the eagle!

And yes!

It has come to pass!

I can feel it. And it really makes a lot of difference to think that I'm now middle-aged. Lolx!

Halleluyah!

Upps!

Think the movers are here.

Brb and enjoy God's message for you today from Joseph Prince.

Be blessed. :)

---Time To Use Your Authority---
Exodus 14:15–16
15And the Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward. 16But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it...

The problem with the body of Christ today is not that we are not praying. We are praying. But many of us are praying desperate prayers. We are praying, “God, help… God, please… God, do something about my problem!”

If you are smiling a little by now, most likely, you know about such prayers and might have prayed a couple yourself. My friend, God does not want you to pray pleading prayers all the time. He wants you to use the authority He has given you to pray powerful prayers, to boldly command and to “stretch out your hand” and see miracles happen.

When Moses stood before the Red Sea with Pharaoh’s army in hot pursuit, the Bible tells us that he cried out to God. But God told him, “Why do you cry to Me?”

There is a time for you to cry out to God and there is a time for you to use your authority. God told Moses, “Tell the children of Israel to go forward. But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it.”

The “rod” you have today is the name of Jesus. As you command in Jesus’ name, your “sea” will open and you will go on dry ground through the midst of your problem.

Do you realize that Jesus did not say, “Go and pray for the sick”? He said, “Go and heal the sick.” (Matthew 10:8) So stop pleading and asking all the time, and start using the authority you have in Christ.

Jesus told the church, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore…” (Matthew 28:18–19) My friend, God wants you to go and use the authority that He has given you. And as you go, miracles will flow!

God Is NoT Behind The Tsunamis, Please!

Like I said, God is no longer mad at us anymore because of Jesus' sacrifice.
So lets us stop thinking or hearing the world from blaming God on earthquakes, tsunamis, H1N1 , etc. because He is gona protect us all from all these.

Isaiah 54:7-10

7 "For a brief moment I abandoned you,
but with deep compassion I will bring you back.

8 In a surge of anger
I hid my face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting kindness
I will have compassion on you,"
says the LORD your Redeemer.

9 "To me this is like the days of Noah,
when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth.
So now I have sworn not to be angry with you,
never to rebuke you again.

10 Though the mountains be shaken
and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken
nor my covenant of peace be removed,"
says the LORD, who has compassion on you.


Halleluyaaaaah!!!

My Daily Verse

“He was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows, and familiar with suffering. Like one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he took up our infirmities and carried our sorrows, yet we considered him stricken by God, smitten by him, and afflicted.”

God Says ‘I Will’ In The New Covenant

Aren't you glad God is not like your boss?

Halleluyaaaaah !!


God Says ‘I Will’ In The New Covenant

Hebrews 8:10,12
10… I will put My laws in their mind… I will be their God… 12… I will be merciful to their unrighteousness… their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”

You may be feeling stressed at work today because your boss just gave you a list of things to do. Maybe he told you, “You have to type this letter. You have to meet this client. You have to write this report. You have to…” Wouldn’t it be nice if your boss had, instead, said, “I will type this letter for you. I will meet this client for you. I will write this report for you. I will…”?

Well, your boss may not be that gracious, but your Father in heaven is! When He found fault with the old covenant and established the new covenant (Hebrews 8:7–8) in His Son’s blood, His “Thou shalls” became “I wills”.

You see, under the old covenant, the focus is on you — Thou shall not… Thou shall not… Thou shall not… It is all about your performance, your obedience, your works. But under the new covenant, God says, “I will put My laws in their mind… I will be their God… I will be merciful to their unrighteousness… their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” It is no longer you working for God, but God working for you, in you, through you!

“Isn’t there something for me to do?” you may ask.

My friend, the only thing for you to do is to believe God’s “I wills”. The more you believe His “I wills” or promises, the more you will see His heart for you and the more your faith will grow.

It is foolish for me to just tell you, “Come on, man, have faith!” You will still find it hard to have faith because I am not giving you anything to build faith in you. But if I were to tell you all about what God says He will do for you, faith will arise in your heart. Faith is a response to knowing what God says He will do for you.

So the best thing you can “do” under the new covenant is to not focus on what you must do for God, but what God says He will do for you!

Yes Lord I'm Listening....

...and then God answered: Write this.
Write what you see. Write it out in big block letters so that it can be read on the run.
This vision- message is a witness pointing to what's coming.
It aches for the coming-- it can hardly wait!
And it doesn't lie.
If it seems slow in coming, wait.
It's on its way.
It will come right on time.

God Wants To Wow You With His Goodness

How's your weekend everyone?
Starts of Monday here in Singapore!
Oh yeaaaah!
Sharing an awesome message from Joel Osteen Ministry to start your week right.

Be blessed!

Here goes....


Dear Friend,

Did you know that God can use a single moment to transform your life for the better?

God is always working, even when we have no idea what He's doing. He loves to bless us with His amazing, awe-inspiring goodness, even when we least expect it or when things don't seem to be going the right way.

Romans 8:28 is a popular verse but never gets old. To me, it's one of the most encouraging verses in the entire Bible. "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them" (NLT).

I love the word "everything" in this verse. We tend to think of bad things and difficult seasons, but "everything" includes more. It includes the good things as well as the things that we are indifferent about. God takes all of those things and works them out for our good.

He wants you to be the kind of person who thinks about His promises all the time, who believes the best, and who keeps hoping when others just give up. If you live this way, I believe you'll be amazed at how God works in your life. You'll experience His favor in what I call a "God-ordained moment."

A God-ordained moment is an incredible, supernatural event that God's been setting up, working behind the scenes so that you can experience His goodness at just the right time.

These God-ordained moments don't come on our schedule, but when they come, all we can say is: "Wow!"

Victoria and I want to remind you not to allow discouragement, a busy schedule or the hurts from your past to cause you to miss what God is doing in your life. Most importantly, don't give up on being blown away by God's favor.

Because of how big our God is and how much He loves us, I believe that we can experience "Wow" moments on a continual basis, as long as we continue to love Him and obey His Word.

Victoria and I want to say thank you for supporting this ministry and helping us share the message of HOPE in Jesus Christ around the world. We are believing with you for a year filled with God-ordained moments in your life!

Joel Osteen
