They forgot
God's works and the wonders that He had shown them. Psalm 78:11
The bible says that
the Israelites forgot the wonderful works of God. Due to this they didn't have
faith to back them up for the upcoming problems. The bible says that, God
divided the sea for the Israelites and took them through, defeated and
destroyed their enemies, miraculously provided food & water for them in the
desert not missing even one day. All this, they forgot.
When they had new
challenges come up their way, they were mentally defeated because they didn't
remember their good times. As they didn't remember their victory times, they
remembered their days of slavery. Those days made them realize that they are
not worthy, that can't have a better future, they have to always live a
defeated life. This made them live a defeated life, even before reaching their
challenges of life.
Today if you are in
this situation, remind yourself of your victorious days. Forget your days of
failure and slavery. Remind yourself the wonderful things God has done in the
past for you, that divine connections, your new job, your beautiful spouse,
your cute children, etc. Remind yourself how it was impossible, yet, God did it
for you. Look around what God is doing in others life. Looking at them, remind
that if God is doing it in their lives, God will do it in your life too.
Our general
tendency is to remember the bad days, our defeated days, and the days when
things went back. Today peel off those thoughts. Discipline your thoughts and
think right. By thinking these thoughts you will have new revived faith flowing
through your heart, mind and your whole body. Then you will not only be able to
face your challenges, but rip it apart and come out victorious.
Remind yourself of
God's works. Study His wonderful works. Remove the negativity and defeat from
your life. Everything is possible with God. He will do it in your life.
