ARE YOU TIRED INSIDE? POWERFUL NEW MOTIVATION
BY LES BROWN, JOCKO WILLINK, TERRY K ANDERSON, JIM ROHN, JOYCE MEYER.
I’m tired of playing defense on the faith journey, I’m tired
of being afraid, I’m tired of apologizing. do you ever just get tired of
reacting to the devil and his schemes? I want to be somebody who's directing I want
to be somebody who's leading I don't want his threats to dictate one step that
I take.
So many of us we tiptoe through life to simply arrive safely at death. it is a fact that you will die the question today is will you ever actually live?
Is there anybody in
this building that's tired of being discontent? and you want to be able to say
if I get my way I’m going to be happy if I don't get my way I’m gonna be happy.
I’m not gonna let my circumstances control my moods. I am content and emotionally
stable, that is my goal to be content and emotionally stable.
It doesn't take much
faith to give God glory when all your bills are paid. you don't have to be real
strong when everything is well in your life. but when the bottom falls out when
sickness comes when trials and difficulties come, when your health starts to
fail, when your children break your heart, when difficulties tough times hard
days long nights, it is then that your faith kicks in to let you know that he's
a very present health in the time of trouble.
maybe you're unhappy
right now with your current job, maybe you're unhappy with your health, or maybe
you're unhappy with the season of life you find yourself in, has it ever occurred to
you that you are not thereby coincidence but rather you are there by providence?
has it ever occurred to you that God has a plan that he's putting the puzzle
together and that you must recognize regardless of the season I am here for such
a time as this.
see there's a reason
for your season there's purpose in your pain there is a design in the disaster,
there's hope in the hurt, there's life even after death, I think it's time for
a turnaround.
Because crying and
complaining is not going to stop the trial. murmuring and groaning is not going
to stop the trial. and the purpose is that God wants to work out in our lives
may include trials, setbacks, heartbreak. it may mean that you have to stay
sick a while it may mean that you have to go through it a while, you're not
going to come through it yet because god has his mighty hand on you. and that
hand on your life is so powerful to get purpose out of you.
And you know what
those days are good for us. it's good to go through those days. do not despise
the day of small beginnings. and don't complain your way through a small
beginning. because if we cannot learn to be thankful for those things trust me you
will not be thankful when God gives you more. Because going through the hard times
and remaining thankful builds character in us, that we need to remain stable
when God gives us more to be responsible for.
We should have a goal
to be the most thankful person on the face of the earth. go through each day
thanking God for little things like hot water and a friend. and every
convenience that you have do all things without grumbling and fault finding and
complaining.
Hold your head up and dry your tears, you have nothing to be
ashamed of. if you want to begin to move you've got to clear your mind of all
the unnecessary luggage and baggage that's weighing us down. let it go and
begin to focus on developing myself. and I say to you you're going to have
people to do things to you, things are going to happen to you, and the most important
thing to do is to harness your will and let it go and move so you can grow.
So you can get on
with your life it doesn't matter about what happens to you what matters is what
are you going to do about it.
Every other voice may be negative, telling you how you're
not going to get better, you feel alone, isolated. means you're in the wrong stadium
the enemy has a stadium filled with accusers discouragers don't go there.
that's the opponent stadium your game is being played on the home field.
everyone in these stands is pulling for you.
Your life is a seed.
the seed has to be coupled with a healthy environment. the seed has to go into
the soil it has to be healthy soil, the seed needs water, the seed needs
sunlight. see you and i are the same thing we're a seed we have to connect it
to a community of people that are healthy and vibrant and believe the best
really is in store for us.
because you're kind
of saying I’m over it, but if you would share your calling the moment you say I’m
over it you would have somebody else walk up to you and say wait a minute let
me just shed some light onto that dark area so that you can grow again. you're
not quitting today, you're not quitting tomorrow, you're gonna run this race of
faith and you're not gonna give up.
So as you begin to
look at life as you begin to look at the things you want to do, decide that
you're going to become the active force in your life. decide that you're not going
to go through life feeling like a victim. decide that when things become challenging
that you're not going to personalize it that you're going to look at it and you
do whatever you must do in order to work things out and learn from it that's
the key.
You will always be
faced with a series of god-ordained opportunities brilliantly disguised as
problems and challenges.
We all have things that come against us and try to keep us
from our destiny. most of what we struggle with didn't start with us. it was
passed down. things like depression, anger, divorce studies show how that can get
passed from generation to generation.
If your mother was
depressed there's a good chance you'll have to deal with depression just like a
lady that's on drugs and gives birth to a baby. that baby can have the same addiction
as the mother. there's no fault of the babies it's just life. what you're
dealing with may not have started with you but it can stop with you.
God wants to give you
rest from those enemies. as long as we accept dysfunction as the norm it will
never change. if you see that depression that lack and struggle as your lot in
life you'll not only get stuck but you'll pass it on to the next generation.
You’ve got to get the word happiness is something you design.
happiness is a study, happiness is a practice, happiness is an art. it's not an
accident, it's an art and anybody that wants to can study, practice the art .happy
living happiness is like culture money doesn't make you cultured but culture is
within the grasp of all of us all you have to be is committed to it and make it
a study culture is a study sophistication is a study it's not an amount it's
not an account it's a study money doesn't make you sophisticated.
only study and
practice makes you sophisticated only study and practice makes you culture and
only study and practice makes you happy studying practice makes you rich key phrase
don't be lazy and learning.
One how to do well
next how to live well don't be lazy in learning and practicing the art of
economics. And practicing the art of lifestyle.
As long as you accept
the dysfunction and even when god sends you a way out you'll talk to yourself
out of it. You think it's normal to live depressed, addicted, angry, lonely.
this is a new day you may have been ruled by those things for years. They may
have been passed down by previous generations but that is not your destiny.
What’s limited you in
the past doesn't have to limit you in the future. you can rise out of lack, struggle,
not having enough you have seeds of greatness. you were created to lend and not
borrow. you can be free from depression, low self-esteem, insecurity, don't let
limited thinking keep you from your destiny.
There’s some things
that you can accomplish that you can't see right now. my favorite book says eye
has not seen ear has not heard nor's enter the heart of mankind what God has in
store for you. when you're willing to say yes when you're willing to move
forward life will respond to you.
Mindset
transformation is very important. be not conformed to this world be transformed
by the renewing of your mind you don't want to think like everybody else you
want uncommon thinking. expand your skill sets.
You just got to go
through exercises like this take the notes to work hard, roll up your sleeves go
to work, gather the knowledge in journals, gather the knowledge and notebooks gather
the knowledge in a library, and don't be lazy and learning.
your feelings don't
matter you may feel like doing something maybe you don't feel like doing
something doesn't matter get out there and do what you're supposed to do. whether
you feel like it or not.
