Meditate On
The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we
are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs
with Christ...
Romans 8:16–17
It’s
Time To Change Your Mind
It’s so important to know and keep meditating on who you
are and what you have in Christ. Why? Because it affects how you see yourself
and the challenges that come your way.
I’m too old. I don’t have the relevant experience.
They’re hiring only college graduates. If you’re looking for a job and your
mind is gripped by such thoughts, then you’re already defeated by your thoughts
before you even step out for an interview.
It’s time to change your mind. As God’s child, you are
His heir and a joint heir with Christ. This means that you have the same
unclouded favor that Jesus has. So step out in faith and expect His favor to
open doors for you and give you the job you desire, regardless of your natural
limitations.
A lady in her mid-fifties in my congregation, after
hearing me share on this, changed her mind. She decided to put her trust in the
Lord’s unmerited favor, got her résumé ready and sent it out by faith. That
very week, she was called for interviews by two different companies, which led
to two job offers! She picked one and has been gainfully employed for the last
five years.
Beloved, keep meditating on what God’s Word says about
you because of the finished work of Jesus. That way, you won’t be seized with
alarm and struck with fear when challenges come your way. Instead, you’ll count
on His favor and love and see the good you want to see!
