Don’t shout. In fact, don’t even speak—not so much as a whisper until you hear me say, “Shout!” Joshua 6:10 (MSG) Are you going through a difficult time? It can be so frustrating to stand in faith for something when what you’re praying for doesn’t seem to be on its way. You’re going to have days when you feel like giving up. But I want you to remember something really important during those times: keep speaking God’s Word. God promised the Israelites the city of Jericho, but they didn’t overcome its walls right away. God instructed them to march around the city every day for seven days in a row. On the seventh day, after marching around seven times, all the people were to shout, …
Silencio Alrededor De La Muralla
No griten. De hecho, ni siquiera hablen, ni el más mínimo murmullo hasta que me oigan decir: “Griten!” Joshua 06:10 (MSG) ¿Estás pasando por un momento difícil? Puede ser muy frustrante tener fe en algo cuando aquello por lo que usted está orando no parece estar en camino. Va a tener días en los que siente que se da por vencido. Pero yo quiero que recuerden algo realmente importante en esos momentos: siga hablando la Palabra de Dios. Dios prometió a los israelitas la ciudad de Jericó, pero no rompieron sus murallas de forma inmediata. Dios les dio instrucciones para marchar alrededor de la ciudad todos los días durante siete días seguidos. En el séptimo día, después de marchar alrededor siete veces, todo el pueblo …
Cuide Su Lengua
No lo ven, planearon mal contra mí, pero Dios usó esos mismos planes para mi bien, como ven a su alrededor en este momento, salvar la vida de muchas personas. Génesis 50: 20-21 (MSG) Cuando se está en un momento difícil, es muy importante tener cuidado con lo que se dice. Proverbios 18:21 dice que su lengua tiene poder de vida y muerte en sí misma. En otras palabras, lo que usted dice tiene el poder de dar vida o dar muerte a una situación. Es por esto que es tan importante hablar positivamente, incluso cuando todo parece ir mal. Hay una historia en la Biblia que ilustra bien este punto. Antes del nacimiento de Juan el Bautista, un ángel se apareció a su padre, …
Watch Your Tongue
Don’t you see, you planned evil against me but God used those same plans for my good, as you see all around you right now—life for many people. Genesis 50:20–21 (MSG) When you go through a tough time, it’s really important to watch what you say. Proverbs 18:21 says your tongue has the power of life and death in it. In other words, what you say has the power to bring life or bring death to a situation. This is why it is so important to speak positively, even when everything seems to be going wrong. There’s a story in the Bible that illustrates this point well. Before John the Baptist was born, an angel appeared to his dad, Zacharias, to tell him that he …
What You Say About Yourself
[We pray] that you may be invigorated and strengthened with all power according to the might of His glory, [to exercise] every kind of endurance and patience (perseverance and forbearance) with joy.Colossians 1:11 (AMPC) Do you ever talk down to yourself? It may seem like you’re being humble or transparent, but it’s actually very destructive. You see, everything that comes out of your mouth is steering your life. If you’re always saying, “I’m just not good at that,” or “I can’t do it,” you’re limiting yourself. You are helping to form negative beliefs about yourself, which will impact your mind, your heart, and your future. Instead, you need to say things like this, inspired by today’s verse: “Father, thank you for invigorating and strengthening me …
