Faith affirmations are based on the truths of God’s word. They are not a mantra that we repeat over and over. They are rock-solid truths that cannot be altered or changed in any way. We believe them. We speak them because we believe them just as Paul stated.
It is good to stop and listen to what you are thinking. When our thoughts do not line up with truth, we are set up to be derailed through a flesh-driven temptation. Does God provide? Through his obedience, Abraham learned an amazing lesson through a ram caught in thicket. He named the place The-Lord-Will-Provide.
What is your need? Isiah 65:24 says, “It shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear.” Our needs are well known to the Lord. We have to be alert and now allow our flesh to derail us through our thoughts of self-effort. Do not bite that dangling bait ~ you will get hooked!
