My Thoughts & Feelings

 

EAGLES: I have a special fascination for Eagles, especially Bald Eagles as they are iconic birds. From its craggy talons to its sharp vision to its unique mating rituals, this is one amazing bird. Here’s why they’re so special:

Bald eagles rule the sky. They are so dominant that they don’t even have to hunt for themselves and will often scavenge or steal the kills of other birds. When they do hunt, bald eagles typically glide just above the water and snag fish from right beneath the surface instead of making plummeting dives like falcons. Their eyesight is estimated to be three- to four-times better than humans. This means they can spot a rabbit at over 3 miles away. The strength of their vision is made possible by their proportionally oversized eyes. A bald eagle can also see ultraviolet light, which gives it the ability to spot the UV-reflecting urine of small rodents—and then sweep in for the kill. With wingspans measuring 6 to 7.5 feet, bald eagles are optimal flying machines. Their average soaring speed clocks in at about 30 mph, which is roughly equivalent to a horse at full gallop. Bald eagles can breach this speed during dives, but they rarely utilize such acrobatics. Moreover, the birds can ascend to heights of up to 10,000 feet.

One of my favorite scriptures in the Bible is Psalms 103:5 that God satisfices my mouth with Good Things, so that my youth is renewed like the eagle's. Now for me, I apply and speak this over my life on a daily basis. But first I had to understand the true meaning of this scripture. Which means, if I continue to read God's word it will fill my mouth with speaking his word over my life and therefore, in return I will receive health, wisdom wealth and all the promises God created for me to live a prosperous life. Therefore...… I am an E-Gal !

 

 


 

 

 

SALVATION: The very first thing we need to do to begin our New Life and relationship with God is Salvation. The Bible clearly teaches that the moment a person turns from his sin and trusts in Jesus to be forgiven of his sin, he is saved (Acts 2:37-41). He has passed from spiritual death to spiritual life (John 5:24) and has been declared not guilty in God's court of law (Rom 3:21-26) therefore, start by confessing and believing that Jesus died and rose again and you believe that Jesus is Lord and forgives All our sins. We receive salvation in Christ through repentance and faith. This means turning away from sinful ways (repentance) and turning to God (faith), trusting in Christ. Jesus will forgive your sins and set you on a path to life with Him. We cannot earn this right, it is His free gift. But! You must receive the gift in order for it to work, it's like if I call you and say "hey come over I have a gift for you" well..... if you never come to get the gift from me, it just stays there.

Note: “For whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved” (Romans 10:13 NKJV). “That if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved” (Romans 10:9 NKJV)

Now after we receive salvation, it's time to start working on Your Mind and Thoughts

MIND RENEWAL: To begin the journey to working on your mind, you must start by the renewing of your mind. For me, I began reading the Bible, which at first really did nothing for me. I was reading yet had no true understanding. Therefore, I began listening to Pastors teach the word of God, which was very different from I was used to. I was brought up going to church and hearing the Preacher read a verse in the Bible and then speak on that subject until he got into a rhythm and then the piano would get in tune with him as he got louder and almost the whole congregation was shouting, crying and falling out. We would repeat that action Sunday after Sunday. Never being taught how to read the word of God and apply it my life and circumstances. For me that is the difference in a Preacher and a Teacher. Once I began to be taught the word of God I was able to began renewing my mind. I realized I had to change the people I hung around, the things I listened to and to grow in my faith by trusting in God alone to see me through any and all challenges. But the most important thing was the words I spoke out of my mouth! It was very hard to control the negative stuff coming out of my mouth because I spent most of my life complaining and talking about what I don't have and what I can't do. It took a lot of discipline to control my tongue and watch the words I spoke. It's like if I continue to do and think the same things I will always have the same outcome in my life.

Note:  The key to finding true freedom and walking in our purpose is to renew our minds with God's Word!  Renewing your mind according to Romans 12:2 means interpreting life through the lens of God's Word and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, rather than through the lens of your experience, woundedness, trauma, preferences, or the opinions of others.

FAITH: Once the renewing of mind process began, I needed to start building my faith. Hebrews 11:1 – “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” Therefore, We must live by Faith and not by Site, which means that no matter what my 5 physical senses may be I believe what the word of God says about me and circumstances in my life. Hebrews 11:1 – Faith can only come by ONE way and that is hearing the word of God. The more you hear and read the word of God your faith has NO choice but to increase. Therefore, if I have a pain in my body or I receive a bad doctors report my belief is "By Jesus stripes I am healed" now I'm not denying the pain exist or that the doctor report is wrong I just know what the word of God says about my health. So I stand on that as I read scriptures that pertain to health and healing. And by doing that I am convinced in my spirit, soul and body that I am healed and I must truly believe and trust God's word concerning this. No matter what it looks like or how I feel. I have spoke with people that say things like ohhh my back is killing me etc.... well guess what if you continue to say things like that that is exactly what you will get. You see, we must be careful with what you speak because God created us in His imagine and that is how He started this whole thing, by speaking. If you go to Genesis 1:1-24 that is how He created the earth. "GOD SAID" so if we are created in His imagine we have the right to "SAID/SAY also. When my back or anything is off kilter with my health, I may slip up and say awww my back is hurting but immediately I cast that down and say It is written... by Jesus stripes I a healed! I had to train my mind and tongue to focus on the things of God and his word in order for my faith and trust in him to grow. It is not God's will for us to be sick especially when we are made in his imagine and He was NEVER sick or NEVER will be. We must activate or faith by trusting God and speaking the right things. When there's not enough money to take care of bills or unexpected cost, you don't go saying and thinking I don't have it or I can't pay a certain, NO! you say it is written "But my God shall supply ALL my need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" and you must believe that, no matter what.
