Positive Daily Inspiration – May 4, 2023 – Think Totally Unique Thoughts

Positive Daily Inspiration - May 4, 2023
Think Totally Unique Thoughts

“Let the same mind be IN YOU that was in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 2:5

Some people live their whole lives without an original thought inside of their heads. Some people live their whole lives thinking in secondary thought. Some people sadly let others do all of their thinking for them. They accept the thoughts of others and live their lives on the basis of others’ thoughts. Many of these thoughts are filled with limitation and lack and do NOT serve our needs today.

Well-meaning parents, siblings, and friends have given you their thoughts in the past. Sadly many people blindly follow mass thought or even “mob consciousness.”

I encourage you this week to question everything and dare to ask, “Why?” I encourage you to think for yourself new and original thoughts. I encourage you this week to think out of the box and to have Totally Unique Thought.

There is a story told about the family that for generations cut off the end of the ham before they cooked it. The granddaughter one day asked, “Why?” Her mother reported that her mother and grandmother always cooked the ham this way. The daughter persisted in wondering why they had to cut off the end of the ham. At the next family gathering the daughter asked her great-grandmother, “Why?” The great-grandmother was shocked that it had become a family tradition. It turns out that 50 years ago when she first started the practice, her oven was too small to fit the whole ham inside.

Inventors think brand-new thoughts to solve old problems. I am asking you this week to be the King or Queen of Totally Unique Thought. You will be King TUT!

We have all let others do our thinking for us and that is all right when we are children but now you are an adult, and you must use the great power of thought that God has given you to think.

You do not have to think alone. Your human thinking can be opened to God’s thoughts. Your human brain can be the receptor of Divine ideas that you can use to co-create and reinvent your life. Your life can be revolutionized by new thought held in your mind. If you are dissatisfied or discontent, perhaps this is your signal that you have been living other people’s thoughts about your own unique life.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Today, I empower myself by thinking Totally Unique Thought.
Today I empower myself, by asking your help, God.
I ask that You infill me with Divine ideas.
I pray that I have the ability to re-think, and to question, and rise my thoughts of the past.
I pray that I have self-motivation to carry through the Totally Unique Thoughts that I receive from You and co-create with my own thinking.
I pray that I have the courage to reinvent my life by reinventing my thinking.
I stand in prayer ready and willing to begin this active and exciting process of forming a new Christ consciousness.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:
Arise. Shine: for thy light is come and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee!

Positive Daily Inspiration – May 3, 2023 – FULFILLMENT IN GOD

Positive Daily Inspiration - May 3, 2023
FULFILLMENT IN GOD

“Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.”
Proverbs 16:3

God’s perfect plan of good is finding fulfillment in your life, right now. Everything is in Divine order; you are Divinely guided, protected, and prospered, this minute, as you turn to God.

You are not anxious about your life or its direction, for you know that God’s perfect plan of good is unfolding, now, in Divine order. You put your absolute faith in God and God’s goodness. You see all the experiences of your life as contributing to your growth and unfoldment. You have nothing to fear, for God is your guide and protector.

You have no lack of love, for God’s Divine love is constantly with you. You prosper because God supplies your every need.

You commit your hopes, your dreams, your desires to the Lord. You give thanks that, even now, that which is for your highest good and happiness is being established. You trust in the perfect outworking of all things.

God’s perfect plan of good is finding fulfillment in your life. You are Divinely guided.

Think for a minute of the many situations that will be blessed and benefited today by your realization of God’s Divine order.

As you travel – perhaps across town, perhaps across the country – your prayer for Divine order will go before you to make safe and easy your way. Protection and security are in Divine order for you.

As you handle the various affairs of your day, you are fulfilled as you turn to God, because God has already turned towards you. Your prayer will keep you alert to right choices and open the way for wise decisions.

Wisdom and guidance are God’s gift to you this day. In human relations, your prayer for Divine order will keep your emotions stable and keep you in the right attitude and spirit, to make this day a truly blessed one. Serenity and peace of mind are also in store for you.

The busier you are, the more you need God’s help. Your prayer for the fulfillment of God’s good will make it a time when things go smoothly and harmoniously for you; and you can help make it such a time for others. Your faith will give you shelter and warmth, and how much you will thank God as you see all things working together for good.

Through God, you will find the right outworking of every problem, the right fulfillment for every need as you let God lead you to higher good. You can be glad, and praise God for God’s loving provision.

This will be a day filled with many activities that demand your attention and time. But it can be also a time of great inner peace, a time when you feel close to God, a time of faith and a time of prayer.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

You, Lord, are my light;
You dispel my darkness.
Dear God, You protect me and save me,
The Lord lives! Praise my defender!
I proclaim the greatness of the strong God who saves me!
1 Samuel 22:2-7

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:
God has given me a victorious spirit. I am established in the knowledge of self-mastery and soul satisfaction.

“Celebrate the success of others. Bring people up – not down!”

Positive Daily Inspiration – May 2, 2023 – Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

Positive Daily Inspiration - May 2, 2023
Tuesday Prayer and Meditation

“God abides in us, and God’s love is perfected in us.”
1 John 4:12

(based, in part, on James Dillet Freeman’s writing “Because God Is Love.”)

Let us pray … in awareness and in realization that God’s love is with us now.

Who of us does not have times when he or she thinks they are not good enough to go to God for help? But God does not help us because God approves or disapproves of what we are doing. God helps us because God is God, because God is life, because God is love.

God does not help us because we are good. God helps us because God is good. God does not help us because we deserve help or love us because we deserve love. Do you love only those who have no flaws? And would you think that you can love where God cannot? Love sees things perfect in spite of flaws. We do not have to be perfect to lay hold of love’s perfection.

God does not answer our prayers to reward us because we have been good, or deny our prayers to punish us because we have been bad. God does not strike a bargain. God does not work for pay. God gives.

Accept the gift of God’s love in the silence of prayer …

Our God does not wait until we give ourselves to God to give the Divine to us. God seeks us even when we flee from God. And where can we flee from God – a God who is everywhere present and at hand?

God has us in the Divine heart, whether we have God in our hearts our not.

We do not have to be the most willing for God to choose us, or the most capable for God to use us.

It is not only good people that God has used to do God’s good. It is not only brave people that God has used to win God’s victory. It is not only righteous people that God has used to establish right.

So, today, in prayer, we hold out our hearts and we pray. God, whatever my heart may have felt, love through it. Divine love, manifest thyself through me.

In the silence of prayer and ask for God’s love to manifest through you.

We hold out our minds and we pray: God, whatever my mind may have thought, think through it. We hold out our hands and we pray: God, whatever my hands may have done, act through them.

We know that God does not give God-strength only to the strong, or God wisdom only to the wise, or God joy only to the joyful, or God blessing only to the blessed.

God does not help us because of what we are. God helps us because of what God is. God is love.

I decree through the power of Jesus Christ that you will have a renewal in many phases of your mind.

I decree that you will view yourself anew; you will start to see and recognize the God qualities that are in you, manifesting through you.

You will not deny these through false belief in inferiority. Rather you will carry the strength, the banner of God, high in the way you carry yourself and the way you act, speak, and think.

Thank You, dear, wonderful God of love

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:
Because God loves me, I am able to express love to someone today.

Positive Daily Inspiration – May 1, 2023 – NOT ONLY A NEW MONTH, A NEW DAY, A NEW DAWN

Positive Daily Inspiration - May 1, 2023
NOT ONLY A NEW MONTH, A NEW DAY, A NEW DAWN

“God’s mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning.”
Lamentations 3:22-23

For the next 24 hours, from the moment you read this Positive Daily Inspiration, nothing or no one stops you from enjoying your life.

You decide to make this day NEW. Only you can totally allow this day to be brand-new. You decide to not bring into this day the old hurts, regrets, or griefs of yesterday. Yesterday has no power over today unless you allow it. This is a new day, and you are a new person. You enter into life this day with a new heart and a new spirit.

Have you longed for more joy in your life? You can have more joy by making a conscious decision not to relive less-joyful moments. Some people spend their whole God-given gift of life reliving painful happenings. We have all done this to some degree, but the person who is successful in life, at some point, decides to do it less or not at all. There should be a statute of limitations to how long something bothers you. You can make it a personal law of your own to never dwell on or think about an event that has passed the time period of our agreed-upon statute of limitations.

This day, you welcome joy by letting the joy of the Lord well up and bubble over in you. Have you longed for companionship, for happy human relations to once again be in your life? Decide today to not judge all future friendships by the few bad ones of the past.

If you are divorced, or have left some relationship, you no longer allow this past relationship to ruin this new day.

You make an ex-change! You CHANGE the bad, old thoughts of a former EX, to new, current, cleansed thoughts of God’s love. This day, you welcome friends and friendship, peace, and happiness into your life by letting the loving, radiant, happy Spirit of God find expression through you.

You make the decision to let go what goes. God has greater and better good for you.

Have you longed to feel that life has meaning and purpose, that there is a plan of good for you? This day, by opening your mind and heart to the illumination of God, you welcome new understanding and insight. New depths of spiritual awareness come to you this day because you are living in this moment instead of in the past. You see yourself and your life in a new light. You perceive the good of God at work in your life to bring new paths of enfoldment to you. You agree to work with God by not judging yourself solely on past failure. In this new day, you give yourself a break, realizing that God gave it to you long ago.

Do you want to feel healthy and totally alive again? You must allow yourself to experience the full realization of the present moment of life. You are no longer living in your imagination of the past or in your fear of an imagined future. You no longer allow yourself to fall into negative ways of thinking.

In the present moment, you associate with positive people who are faith-filled in the total knowingness of God’s good. You talk about what can happen with God’s help instead of what hasn’t happened in the past. You do not gossip about others because you are too busy living your own good life. You are not talked into feeling bad by anyone who is feeling bad emotionally. You are immune from being reminded of past pain. The dead past is really dead, null, and void. God empowers you to go beyond distress and weakness. In this new day, God’s life in you is pure and powerful, and you can abide in this new day so strongly that you feel young, strong, and energetic.

Your emotions are filled with gladness and thanksgiving because you flood your emotions with an awareness of God. This new day, you keep your emotions, your thoughts, and your actions in a positive frame of mind. In this new day, you hold to the truth that God’s life is within every cell of your body and mind, perfecting, renewing, and rejuvenating you.

In this new day, you are excited again about the possibilities in your life. You are, naturally, poised and controlled because you realize that you are not alone.

In this new day, you live every moment, happily and productively, filled with God’s strength and feeling vitally alive–it IS true. For the next 24 hours, from the moment you read this Positive Daily Inspiration, nothing or no one stops you from enjoying your life. You allow yourself the privilege of a vacation from yesterday and tomorrow. A whole lifetime is built step-by-step. Each day is an investment into a fund that builds on unhappiness, or builds a lifetime filled with smiles, laughter, and true joy.

God will guide you into right results now for the sake of God.

POSITIVE PRAYER FOR TODAY:

Dear God, I know that You hold the key that can release me from my self-imposed prisons of the past. I choose this day to walk with You into new freedom of self-expression.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE AFFIRMATION FOR TODAY:
I now partake of the guidance of God’s mind and I am led to say and do the right thing at the right time and in the right way.

POSITIVE QUOTE FOR TODAY:
“To live is more than just to sustain life–it is to enrich, and to be enriched by, life.”
Shashi Tharoor

Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of God’s holiness.

In New Zealand, two prisoners who were handcuffed together tried to escape as they were escorted from a courthouse. The trouble is that they forgot they were chained together. As they darted away, each prisoner ran to the opposite sides of a light pole. They spun and collided with one another, and then fell into a heap on the ground. When the officers stopped laughing, they picked the prisoners up and hauled them back to jail.

While driving in Pennsylvania, a family caught up to an Amish carriage. The owner of the carriage obviously had a sense of humor, because attached to the back of the carriage was a hand printed sign … “Energy efficient vehicle: Runs on oats and grass. Caution: Do not step in exhaust.”

So, the Zen master steps up to the hot dog stand and says: “Make me one with everything.” The hot dog vendor fixes a hot dog and hands it to the Zen master, who pays with a $20 bill. The hot dog vendor puts the bill in the cash drawer and closes the drawer.

“Where’s my change?” asks the Zen master.

And the hot dog vendor responds, “Change must come from within.”

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, I pray to have the power of laughter fully restored in my life.
I pray for deep laughter daily, a sense of humor, and inner smile.
Amen.

SATURDAY INSPIRATION

(SUBMITTED with our great thanks!)

“God is my helper; the Lord is the upholder of my life.”
Psalms 54:4

THE HANDWRITING ON THE WALL

A weary mother returned from the store,
Lugging groceries through the kitchen door.

Awaiting her arrival was her eight-year-old son,
Eager to relate what his younger brother had done.

“While I was out playing and Dad was on a call,
T.J. took his crayons and wrote on the wall!

It’s on the new paper you just hung in the den.
I told him you’d be mad at having to do it again.”

She let out a moan and furrowed her brow.
“Where is your little brother right now?”

She emptied her arms and with a purposeful stride,
She marched to his closet where he had gone to hide.

She called his full name as she entered his room.
He trembled with fear — he knew that meant doom!

For the next ten minutes, she ranted and raved
About the expensive wallpaper and how she had saved.

Stressed over all the work it would take to repair,
She condemned his actions and total lack of care.

The more she scolded, the madder she got,
Then stomped from his room, totally distraught!

She headed for the den to confirm her fears.
When she saw the wall, her eyes flooded with tears.

The message she read pierced her soul with a dart.
It said, “I love Mommy,” surrounded by a heart.

Well, the wallpaper remained, just as she found it,
With an empty picture frame hung to surround it.

A reminder to her, and indeed to all,
Take time to read the handwriting on the wall!!!

THE KING’S FOUR WIVES

Once upon a time there was a rich King who had four wives. He loved the 4th wife the most and adorned her with rich robes and treated her to the finest of delicacies. He gave her nothing but the best.

He also loved the 3rd wife very much and was always showing her off to neighboring kingdoms. However, he feared that one day she would leave him for another.

He also loved his 2nd wife. She was his confidant and was always kind, considerate and patient with him. Whenever the King faced a problem, he could confide in her, and she would help him get through the difficult times.

The King’s 1st wife was a very loyal partner and had made great contributions in maintaining his wealth and kingdom. However, he did not love the first wife. Although she loved him deeply, he hardly took notice of her!

One day, the King fell ill and he knew his time was short. He thought of his luxurious life and wondered, “I now have four wives with me, but when I die, I’ll be all alone.”

Thus, he asked the 4th wife, “I have loved you the most, endowed you with the finest clothing and showered great care over you. Now that I am dying, will you follow me and keep me company?”

“No way!” replied the 4th wife, and she walked away without another word. Her answer cut like a sharp knife right into his heart.

The sad King then asked the 3rd wife, “I have loved you all my life. Now that I am dying, will you follow me and keep me company?”

“No!” replied the 3rd wife. “Life is too good! When you die, I am going to remarry!” His heart sank and turned cold.

He then asked the 2nd wife, “I have always turned to you for help and you’ve always been there for me. When I die, will you follow me and keep me company?”

“I’m sorry, I can’t help you out this time!” replied the 2nd wife. “At the very most, I can only send you to your grave.” Her answer came like a bolt of lightning, and the King was devastated.

Then a voice called out: “I’ll leave with you and follow you no matter where you go.” The King looked up, and there was his first wife. She was so skinny as she suffered from malnutrition and neglect. Greatly grieved, the King said, “I should have taken much better care of you when I had the chance!”

In truth, we all have 4 wives in our lives: Our 4th wife is our body. No matter how much time and effort we lavish in making it look good, it will leave us when we die.

Our 3rd wife is our possessions, status, and wealth. When we die, it will all go to others.

Our 2nd wife is our family and friends. No matter how much they have been there for us, the furthest they can stay by us is up to the grave.

And our 1st wife is our Soul, often neglected in pursuit of wealth, power and pleasures of the world. However, our Soul is the only thing that will follow us wherever we go. So cultivate, strengthen and cherish it now, for it is the only part of us who will follow us to the throne of God and continue with us throughout Eternity.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

I do ask, in the name of Jesus Christ, as the hours and days unfold, that I know more clearly this mighty God-given power of the heart and the mighty power of love lighting my way.
Amen.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:
I am one with the grace of God.

Positive Daily Inspiration – April 28, 2023 – THANK GOD – IT’S FRIDAY

Positive Daily Inspiration - April 28, 2023
THANK GOD - IT'S FRIDAY

“Father, I thank Thee.” John 11:41

Thank God it is Friday, and tomorrow thank God it’s Saturday, and so on. If you don’t think that every day is a good day, just try missing one. The greatest gift of God is that we are alive.

A person recently said to me, “I don’t want to be a survivor; I want to be a thriver!” I’ve always found it easier to preach 10 sermons than to live one. but living a sermon is what is important for the person delivering it, and the person hearing it. Thriving and happiness in life come by living in a constant state of thankfulness to God. So many miss living because they are trapped within cynicism, negativity, and critical outlooks on their life.

The story of Jesus stilling the storm reminds us of the importance of calmness and trust in the midst of turmoil. Recall that Jesus was sleeping in the stern of the boat when the fearful disciples awakened Him to restore tranquility to the stormy situation.

Connected to God you remain positive even in the midst of a storm in your life. Centered and poised with God you are thankful in advance of positive outcomes. With confidence you establish order and balance in chaotic situations around you. Calm and tranquil thoughts focus the power of God’s love to flow through you in overflowing thanksgiving.

William James said, “The greatest discovery of any generation is that the human being can alter his life by altering his attitude.”

We have to become willing to become what we are praying for.

The vitamin for Christians is B-1!

We must not view Christianity from the sidelines as we watch a Superbowl game. To be successful in life, you do not just attend church; you decide to get INTO the game.

The best way to get in the game and adjust your attitude is by spending a day in thanksgiving to God.

Preface every prayer with thanksgiving. Thankfulness, before you see visible results turns the prayer of hope into the prayer of fulfillment.

Jesus taught us this with His prayer, “Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.” Then, regardless of appearances, give thanks that a miracle work is being done through God’s movement.

Give thanks for the assurance that you are always safe and secure in God’s loving care. Give thanks that you are guided by God, that you know what to do and that your way is clear before you. Calmness is the quality of spirit you express today as you express your ability to monitor your thoughts, to stay calm. You are calm because your awareness of God’s presence and thanksgiving of that is becoming a permanent state of mind.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Thank You God that I am blessed with the love of life and always kept in the stream of happy and worthwhile living. I do not sit and wait for life to come to me; I joyously meet each day with eagerness and great anticipation.

I love life, and my constant state of thankfulness draws me into the stream of abundant living. I do not let life pass me by. I enter into life with all my mind and heart focused on what is right and good. Every day is a wonderful and a rewarding experience. I thank God because I am blessed with the joy of living. I appreciate life and I appreciate God’s gifts to me including life itself. I know that I can never be separated from life, that I am always in the midst of life eternal. In this state of daily thanksgiving, I am deeply aware of God’s presence and I am filled with the strength of joy. I am thankful for the windows of heaven opening in my life. “Prove me right now, said the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out of blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.” I prove my faith in life through my constant thankfulness. I am not afraid to be thankful or to express thanksgiving. I have an inner feeling of childlike joy.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE AFFIRMATION FOR TODAY:
I am a child of the living God. There is a Spirit in me, and the inspiration of the Almighty is giving me understanding.

Positive Daily Inspiration – April 27, 2023 – OTHER PEOPLE ARE PRAYING FOR YOU!

Positive Daily Inspiration - April 27, 2023
OTHER PEOPLE ARE PRAYING FOR YOU!

A voyaging ship was wrecked during a storm at sea and only two of the men on it were able to swim to a small, desert-like island. Not knowing what else to do, the two survivors agreed that they had no other recourse but to pray to God. However, to find out whose prayer was more powerful, they agreed to divide the territory between them and stay on opposite sides of the island.

The first thing they prayed for was food. The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the land, and he was able to eat its fruit. The other man’s parcel of land remained barren. After a week, the first man was lonely, and he decided to pray for a wife. The next day, another ship was wrecked, and the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the island. On the other side of the island, there was nothing.

Soon the first man prayed for a house, clothes, and more food. The next day, like magic, all of these were given to him. However, the second man still had nothing.

Finally, the first man prayed for a ship, so that he and his wife could leave the island. In the morning, he found a ship docked at his side of the island. The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island. He considered the other man unworthy to receive God’s blessings, since none of his prayers had been answered.

As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from heaven booming, “Why are you leaving your companion on the island?”

“My blessings are mine alone, since I was the one who prayed for them,” the first man answered. “His prayers were all unanswered and so he does not deserve anything.”

“You are mistaken!” the voice rebuked him. “He had only one prayer, which I answered. If not for that, you would not have received any of my blessings.” Tell me,” the first man asked the voice, “What did he pray for that I should owe him anything?”

“He prayed that all your prayers be answered.”

For all we know, our blessings are not the fruits of our prayers alone, but those of another praying for us.

Never forget all of us at Positive Christianity are praying for you daily, for God to richly bless your life.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God, may I have knowledge today of all that are praying for me, and all that have prayed for me in the past, and in so learning of this, may I give profound thanks for the greatest of gifts received.

I pray for Your blessings upon all those that have prayed for me in the past.

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:
The loving, comforting presence of Christ uplifts, sustains, and strengthens me.

Positive Daily Inspiration – April 26, 2023 – Psalm 91

Positive Daily Inspiration - April 26, 2023
Psalm 91

Psalm 91
1 “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”

3 Surely You deliver me from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence”

4 God will cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I trust; God’s faithfulness is a shield and buckler.

5 You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,

6 nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.

8 You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place – the Most High, who is your refuge

10 no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your dwelling.

11 For God will command God’s angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.

12 On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.

13 You will tread on the lion and the adder; the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.

14 Because he, or she, holds fast to me in love, I will deliver them; I will protect them, because they know my name.

15 When you call to me, I will answer you; I will be with you in trouble; I will rescue you and honor you.

16 With long life I will satisfy you and show you my salvation.”

“God cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I trust.”

Psalm 91 can be used as a psalm for peace of mind.

Do you have problems you need to deal with whilst at the same time experiencing a peace that comes from trust in God?

“You cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I trust.”

Apparently, the female eagle carries her young under her wings. Those young eagles may be flying with a huge drop beneath them. Yet they are safe and protected.

We can see these bible verses in Psalm 91 as a powerful image of God in as a loving and protecting mother. (See also, Deuteronomy 32:11)

“You cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I trust.”

The meaning of Psalm 91 is that whatever dangers seem present in our world, the more we let God carry us, the more we fly through them and above them in safety. We associate more and more with the part of us that remains in God and rises above the difficulties of this world.

“Surely You deliver me from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.”

“The snare of the fowler” for me is what is often called the Inner Critic – the voice in your head, not necessarily audible! – that tells you – you have got it all wrong. Or it could be the Inner Judge – the voice in your head, that keeps telling you all the ways in which someone else has got it all wrong. The Inner Judge may seem preferable to the Inner Critic.

But stop and think about it …

Both voices make for unpleasant thoughts! “Surely You deliver me from the snare of the fowler.”

You might know the time when you need this prayer for peace of mind:

You are in a place of saying:

“I feel upset about something.

On and on go my racing thoughts.

They feel like bad thoughts, negative thoughts.

I want to just dismiss them, but I don’t seem to have the power to replace my thoughts with the thoughts that God would have me think.”

Great. If you see you don’t have the power to change your thoughts this is a wonderful first step.

Now you can say a prayer for peace of mind.

Invite God to decide for you.

Dear God please decide for me. I pray for peace of mind, help me to get it.
Help me to see hidden causes that may be robbing me of what I so desire.
I ask for Your help.

Thank You God.

Amen

You are making a space in your mind in which God can work.

“Surely You deliver me from the snare of the fowler.”

It is very important to find some way to discipline your thoughts and direct them towards inner peace. A good way to do this was to say Psalm 91 as a prayer for peace of mind. Repeating the bible verse to give you an idea of the persistence with which you need to repeat words that ask for what you want and replace the words in your head that ask for what you do not want.

“The noisome pestilence” is interpreted differently in different versions of the Bible.

Again, use this line as a prayer for peace of mind – peace from the unpleasant racing thoughts.

Use both lines as a prayer for release from depression.

“Surely You deliver me from the snare of the fowler and the noisome pestilence.”

So, what do you do if it seems you don’t have the power to quiet your racing thoughts?

You remember you don’t have to find peace on your own.

You say a prayer for peace of mind to invite God to give you peace.

When we pray Psalm 91, we do just that. We invite God to enter our mind and bring us peace.

POSITIVE DAILY PRAYER:

Dear God,

The thoughts in my mind are not the ones I always want.
I don’t seem to be doing a great job of changing them.
I am willing to think what You would have me think.
I am willing to be at peace.
I claim the confidence of the psalmist in Psalm 91:
You deliver me my God from the snare of the fowler.
You deliver me my God from the noisome pestilence.
Thank You so much.

In Jesus Christ name … Amen.

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:

The thoughts in my mind are the ones I want.
I am thinking what You would think dear God.
I am NOW at peace.

“For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.”

Positive Daily Inspiration – April 25, 2023 – Tuesday Prayer and Meditation for Greater Happiness

Positive Daily Inspiration - April 25, 2023
Tuesday Prayer and Meditation for Greater Happiness

“Rejoice in the Lord always; again, I will say, Rejoice.”
Philippians 4:4

Prayer is a sacred and a happy time.

In preparing for this time of prayer, let us accept the reality that happiness is ours to experience.

“With God’s help I am happy now.”

Allow that Truth of God to permeate every aspect of our being because that is a reality; that is our reality.

The creator created us to experience happiness.

What a momentous day to be alive! What a wonderful day to set forth! I anticipate happy happenings today.

I anticipate a day in which I feel loved and approved of a day in which I accomplish my aims and purposes, a day in which I use more of the talents and abilities with which I have been endowed.

In the silence of prayer …

Today, this very moment, I have faith in God to guide me in all things – in matters of great importance and in matters that are significant only to the moment.

Today I will expect and accept my good. I am life’s expression of joy and happiness. I am God’s gift of joy to God’s wonderful world. In all I do, and whatever experience in which I find myself, God’s wellspring of joy remains unchanged within me – immeasurable, abiding, ready for me to give expression to it.

If I have felt down or depressed about some particular situation in my life, this is my opportunity to allow God’s help and happiness to flow through me.

We allow this to happen now to bless the situation and all concerned.

All needs are better met with spiritual joy in my heart. A joy-filled heart enables me to look past appearances and the places where challenges exist.

Let’s take a moment now, in the silence of prayer.

As we allow whatever experience or situation to come forth in consciousness so God can heal it, change it, and bless it, we allow God to take control of it so we can experience this true happiness that we each seek.

In the silence of prayer …

A joy-filled heart enables me to look past appearances, past the places where challenges once existed. Many persons and many things in my world contribute to my joy and happiness.

I give grateful thanks for each one. I also give thanks for the knowledge of God’s wellspring of joy within me, and for my ability to give expression to it.

I look to this day for yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow is but a vision. Today well-lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, and tomorrow a vision of hope.

In the silence of prayer …

Thank You God for this splendid opportunity to rise to that higher level of joyous expression. We are expressions of happiness right now; we are expressions of joy.

As we continue forward in this Jesus Christ experience, our hearts are full of excitement as we know the Truth for ourselves and for this precious moment.

For this we are profoundly grateful,

In Jesus Christ’s name … Amen

POSITIVE DAILY AFFIRMATION:
God is the light of my mind, and the life of my soul and God shows me the way this day.
