JUST SUPPOSING

Jeremiah 29:11 NKJV For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Do you ever find yourself thinking the worst instead of the best? When the enemy gives you the thought, “Just supposing I lose my job” or “Supposing prices keep increasing and I can’t pay the bills”, or “Supposing I lose my health or I don’t get better”, or some other negative scenario, what do we do with those thoughts? 

We can remind ourselves God has good plans for us, to prosper us and not to harm us, and believe it!  Know that even when storms do come He has promised us His grace will be sufficient for each day. We can declare God is on our side, no weapon formed against us will prosper, and He has promised to restore health back to us, and give us a satisfying long life, that He will meet our needs as we trust Him. 

We can turn the negatives round, “Just supposing I walk in extra energy and strength today. Supposing I have so much I can go and be a blessing to someone who’s struggling. Just supposing my family have a change of heart and come to know Jesus this year. Supposing I get a job that is way beyond anything I thought possible or have a home that’s better than I even imagined” You see it can work both ways! It’s our choice and it’s called faith based on God’s word. Believing for good not bad!😊

The enemy will tempt us to give in to his negative thoughts through worry, which tends to draw negative things towards us, but when we walk by faith we’ll have the right thinking, the right ‘Just Supposings’. 

Proverbs 23:7 NKJV reminds us that what is in our hearts will come out of our mouths unless we ask God to renew our hearts and our thinking. Are we asking?

As we begin another week let’s choose to believe and declare what God says and have the right ‘Just Supposings’’. Believe for the best day, the best week, that whatever we put our hand to will prosper, that He is restoring our strength and health, and that we‘re going to see God’s favour all over our lives.😊 In Jesus name. Amen.
