Finding Freedom By How You Think



Finding Freedom By How You Think
 
     Freedom thinking is an important accomplishment at which you can arrive. You can do so  by  giving yourself permission to not worry about what others may think or appear to think about you.  I can promise you that, once a person forms an opinion of you, it is highly unlikely that will ever change, and no amount of "dancing on a pin head, " or trying to convince them to change their minds, will be productive. So simply make a conscious decision that the person has your complete and full permission to think what they think.  If you disagree with those thoughts, it really won't matter because you have freed yourself by your permission giving to think and let think. You may have even freed the other person as well.

Additionally, you may be misunderstanding how a person is thinking about you by reading them wrongly.  If you are reading them wrongly, and your thinking is way off base, even in this case,  if you grant the permission for the perceived thinking and let "it" be, you are more than likely going to have a way to be at peace and not worry about providing some kind of defense.

One of the statements about Jesus, that was clearly true  -  as demonstrated by his actions  - is that he did not care what people thought about him. He  genuinely thought and let his supporters and or detractors alike have perfect freedom to think about him whatever they wished; therefore, no matter what the circumstances he was so very free to be his Father's representative by the power of the Holy Spirit. He gave each person he encountered the privilege of having whatever view of him they did indeed hold.  It may have helped them and it certainly helped him.

So, we can enslave ourselves with  worry about what "man" or "woman" thinks of us.  We can fret, fume and be down right insulted and or infuriated or afraid.  I do doubt that doing so will do us a lot of good.  Or we can free people and ourselves up to think and let think.

American & "Pride"

Image
 THE MEGA PROBLEM OF "PRIDE" Our country, and especially our leaders, have stolen a God Covenant Symbol-- THE RAINBOW-- which declares God's judgment for unholy living will never be accomplished through flood waters; however,  this doesn't mean God will NOT judge a nation,  or planet that is sin filled and full of pride.  We are living in a time that Jesus describes, in the Bible,  as "The Days of Noah." He prophesied of our day being like the generation that caused God to regret HE had ever made human beings.  Why? The answer is simple: HE had this regret because of "PRIDE." How 🤔 is pride demonstrated? 1. Pride shows itself when people worship the creature rather than THE Creator. 2 . Pride is exemplified when people become the idols, and mere human pseudo truth & rules for life are contrary to Almighty God's Law, which human beings use to govern life. 3. Pride is seen in our irreverence for God's name via the confession of our mouth

We Can Be So Much More.

Image
   We Can Be So Much More:  Let us learn about the powerful identity God the Father gives us, through our being IN Christ Jesus by the power of The Holy Spirit. Let us embrace our God given Eternal Inheritance.  ( Ephesians 1:3-14)  Let us get up, each morning and give ourselves up to God. (Romans 12:1-2.)  Let us wake up! And practice Gods practice of putting off the deeds of darkness, of being empowered to behave decently, like people who live in the day time. (Romans 13:11-14) Let us cloth our selves, in Jesus, by putting on the full armor of God each day! This will make us strong in the Lord and in His mighty power, and it will give us all we need to stand against the Devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-20) Let us submit to God, and resist the Devil so he will have to flee from us. (James 4:7) Learn all we can about the enemy and know he has no authority over us. But in Christ we have God's resurrection power flowing in us and through us. In Jesus Name 🙏  SoJourner

W A T C H O U T ! ! ! JESUS TEACHING ON LEADERS

Image
  Jesus Rock Solid Teaching Regarding Picking Leaders Matthew 7:15-23      "Watch out for false prophets! They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves!  By their fruits you shall recognize them!  Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, and every bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does NOT bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus by their fruit you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but ONLY those who do the will of my Father in Heaven. Many will say to me on the day they give account of their lives, 'Lord, Lord' did we not prophesy in your name, and in you name drive out demons, and in your name perform many miracles?  Then I will tell them plainly, ' I never knew you! Away from me, you evil doers!'
