Detaching from Drama and Chaos

lastwordrecovery

“You cannot walk on hot coals
without burning your feet.”

(Proverbs 6:28)

You understand that every action has a correlating consequence. Therefore, you maintain a firm sense of right and wrong. You keep your distance from activities that will bring negative consequences. You avoid hatred and prejudice. You shun pride and arrogance. You see through deception and prefer to surround yourself with people who are authentic.

You avoid paths that lead to drama and chaos. Your sense of self is deeply rooted in your desire to do the right thing. You live by a set of standards which are aligned with values based on God’s word.

Without judgment, repulsion or excuse, you simply detach yourself from situations that would lead you into temptation. You avoid people who exhibit little concern for the pain they cause, or the negative impact they have on their fellow humans.

You do not join in with others who belittle or diminish another’s worth. You remove yourself from environments which are darkened by oppression, hate, prejudice, and intolerance.

You understand the concept of consequences and are careful to watch your step when it comes to walking in safe spaces. You know that getting too close to the fire can cause you to get burned, so the best option is to stay as far away as possible.

lastwordrecovery

“O Lord, listen to them in heaven and forgive the sins of your servants and teach them to do what is right.”

(2 Chronicles 6:27)

You lead a victorious life when you release your sins and personal failures into the safe space of grace, where forgiveness is found.

When something tempts you, it becomes the topic of your next conversation with God. You do not try to keep it hidden because you know the only way to handle temptation is with the power of divine intervention.

You talk with your Heavenly Father throughout the day and share with Him the struggles that plague your thoughts.

As you share your concerns with God, you find a sense of relief. Your thoughts are turned toward His forgiveness and protection, rather than your own fears and failures.

As the presence of God causes your stress to subside and the chaos to calm, you identify and name your specific challenges.

When you talk things out with God, the issues that overwhelm you are broken down into manageable portions.

Thanks to the promptings of the Holy Spirit, you are given divine wisdom to know the right thing to do.

Embracing Divine Peace: Your Inner Umpire

lastwordrecovery

“May the Lord look on you with favor and give you peace.” (Numbers 6:26)

The peace of God serves as an umpire in your life.  It is the ruling authority in all your decision-making processes.

You know that if you do not experience a supernatural sense of peace when assessing options, your inner umpire has called it a strike.

Rather than giving up, you wait patiently for the next opportunity to try a different approach. That way, when the next opportunity arises, you are on deck, ready to take another swing.

It may be difficult for you to describe this inner peace to others, since it is so deeply personal between you and your Creator.

While this peace is beyond human reasoning or logic, you are aware when it is present, and you rely on its direction.

As you continue your journey, with peace as your guide, you become more attuned to it. This sense of peace, given by God, is as keen as any of your physical senses.

You recognize and appreciate the peace of God because it is the single, most relevant source of direction that you know.

lastwordrecovery

“May the Lord bless you and keep you.” (Numbers 6:24)

Being blessed by God, means you have been empowered to succeed.

The fear of failure may drift through your thoughts when you take on a project you feel inadequate to manage but knowing that you have been empowered to succeed by the Creator of the universe, you set aside your fears and face each challenge head-on.

Having been blessed by God, you see His supernatural power at work in all your efforts.

You realize that He is able and willing to make a success out of everything – even the things you thought were failures.

Empowered to succeed, you rise each day with a fresh enthusiasm to find your divine assignment and fulfill it to your best ability.

Sometimes your successes do not appear all that successful at first. There are times that your initial attempts at success may look a lot like failures.

But you live by faith, not by sight, so you do not view failure as the end, but rather, the beginning of a new approach.

“With our own eyes we saw Him work miracles and do terrifying things to our oppressors.” (Deuteronomy 6:22)

God promises to hand down a ruling which is just, bringing integrity where there was once corruption; and equality where there was once disparity.

Like Jesus, you reject any ideology which promotes bigotry or derision.

You often cry out to God about this particular aspect of the human condition. You pursue all peaceful paths available to you in order to eliminate its ugly presence in society.

In answer to your passionate prayers, the Commander of Angel Armies, is empowering other individuals who will help you advance your cause and shed light on the social injustices which have plagued society for centuries.

No human will be able to stand against His plan. Justice will be served, and honor will be given where honor is due.

Sheltered by Faith: Understanding Noah’s Journey

lastwordrecovery

“But I promise to keep you safe in the ship, with your wife, and your sons and their wives.” (Genesis 6:18)

The story of Noah began with a simple request from God to build a boat, long before the rain appeared. God selected a good man who was living in the midst of a violent, unjust, hate-filled world. 

Much like Noah, you are a good person living in a very hostile time. And, like Noah, God has selected you for a special task which will protect your family and preserve the values you treasure.

How Patience with Yourself Leads to Spiritual Growth

lastwordrecovery

We prove ourselves by our purity, our understanding, our patience, our kindness, by the Holy Spirit within us, and by our sincere love.

(2 Corinthians 6:6)

Happy Birthday 6/6

You have an amazing ability to make others feel accepted.  You are known for creating a safe space where people can relax and be themselves.

Sometimes, it seems your patience is offered to everyone except yourself. You struggle to accept your own shortcomings. You are often very impatient with that one child of God you see in the mirror each morning.

You accept the various weaknesses and imperfections of others readily, yet you often expect perfection of yourself.

Even though God has given you an amazing ability to be patient and tolerant with others, you struggle to be consistent in applying that patience to your own shortcomings as well.

But as you practice patience with yourself, you will begin to sense a deeper awareness of the special place you hold in the heart of God.

“I am worn out, O Lord; have pity on me. Give me strength for I am completely exhausted.” (Psalm 6:2)

Moving toward the goal is not always easy. Some days you are required to push through the pain and keep your eye on the prize.

You know that Christ has equipped you for your race, but there is also a constant need for His supernatural strength and endurance.

When you are discouraged or tired of the strain, you remember that there is a reason Christ called you. There is a purpose for your life and a destiny that only you can fulfill. 

It is your goal to discover your gifts and talents, then cooperate with Jesus in order to put them to use for His Kingdom.
