Make Up Your Mind Who You Believe

James 1:8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. If you are asking for things from GOD or waiting on God then make up your mind concerning your confessions. What you are confessing before GOD and your confession before people must be the same! It will do you no good to spend time worshiping God by confessing His Word over a situation and then continually say exactly the opposite to your friends. Remember what James said. Really make up your mind. Is GOD's Word the TRUTH in your life, or are the present circumstances the truth in your life? Which is it? On what are you going to make your stand? Circumstances or GOD's Word? Once you make your mind to choose GOD's Word then you never let your mouth speak circumstances contrary to what GOD has already said. It’s not always easy honestly it is very difficult on the flesh and, if you are human as I am, you will sometimes stumble and say the wrong thing. But don’t worry repent and move on. When you study the grace of GOD it puts us in a situation where our sins are remembered no more. In other words if you stumble dust yourself and move on. Don’t dwell on your short comings God isn’t keeping track of your faults. Even David a man after GOD’s heart got discouraged but his secret was to bounce back and encourage himself. Imagine it took him several years to get that which GOD had already promised. In the process being pursued day and night. In one instant while in anguish David cry out to GOD in psalms 42 yet notice that David encourages himself within the same psalm. In other words David continues to confess the right things in agreement with GOD. Abraham was given that name from Abram. Abraham meant father of many nations so each time anyone asked his name he would say (Abraham) father of many nations. In so doing he was establishing it and those who were calling his name were also establishing it. They were all in agreement with GOD so even when he made a blunder of sleeping with the maid. He continued to confess in agreement with GOD. Eventually at the appointed time GOD made it manifest to Abraham. You too keep saying the right confessions in agreement with GOD and he is bound to bring it to pass.
