Winning Is in Your DNA
Author: Bob Shafer
Scripture Reading: 2 Corinthians 9
"And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work" (2 Corinthians 9:8).
A lot of people live by Murphy’s Law, which says, “If anything can go wrong, it will, and at the worst possible time. Things will take longer than you thought. It will be more difficult than it seems.” If you have fallen into that mindset, change your outlook.
You are a child of the Most High God. You’ve been crowned with favor. You were never created to live an average, get-by, short-end-of-the-stick life. You were created to be the head and not the tail, to lend and not borrow, to reign in life as a king. You have royalty in your blood. Winning is in your DNA.
Now get rid of that negative mentality, and set your mind for victory, for increase, and for good breaks. Start expecting your plans to work out and for people to be good to you. If it doesn’t happen, don’t fall back into that old negative mentality by thinking things like: “I should have known it would not work out for me. I never get good breaks.”
You are not a victim. You’re a victor. You wouldn’t have opposition if there were not something amazing in your future. Keep a smile on your face. Keep a spring in your step. Stay positive. Stay hopeful. God is still on the throne.
Being sour, negative, and pessimistic, and expecting the worst will keep you from your destiny. You may have had a lot of negative, unfair things happen in your past, but don’t let that become a stronghold. Don’t live with that negative mentality.
If God showed you all He has planned for you, it would boggle your mind. If you could see the doors He’s going to open, the opportunities that will cross your path, and the people who will show up, you’d be so amazed, excited, and passionate, it would be easy to set your mind for victory.
This is what faith is all about. You have to believe it before you see it. God’s favor is surrounding you like a shield. Every setback is a setup for a comeback. Every bad break, every disappointment, and every person who does you wrong is part of the plan to get you to where you’re supposed to be.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Father, thank You that because I am Your child, and You are the Most High God, I have royalty in my blood. You are still on the throne, and I can’t wait to see the doors You are going to open up and the opportunities that will cross my path in the future. Amen.
TODAY’S THOUGHT
Don’t fall into the trap of being negative, complacent, or just taking whatever life brings your way. Set the tone for victory, for success, for new levels. Enlarge your vision. Make room for God to do something new. You haven’t touched the surface of what He has in store.
