Is there a prescription for distraction?

Distraction: to disturb or trouble greatly in mind; to draw the attention of (a person) away from something. Also to disrupt the attention of someone, preventing the ability to focus or concentrate. 

With the above meaning in mind, there are so many of you reading this right now that have become greatly distracted. It has become almost impossible to remain focus on anything or give the important things in your life the attention that it needs.

My friends I want to inform you tonight that you are not dealing with the definition of a word, instead your adversary is that of a spiritual nature, WHICH IS THE SPIRIT OF DISTRACTION! The average person has been faced with this nasty spirit but have adapted to it because of its subtle nature. The following signs will conclude if you are indeed oppressed by this spirit.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed, easily confused, the simplest things seem so hard, frustration and fatigue seems to be the order of the day, extremely impatient particular if you have to wait in a line or in traffic? What about uncontrollable anger, to the point of exhaustion when you would have calmed down. Then finally a sudden and intense feeling of depression and uncontrollable crying that follows? My friend’s make no mistake; if you are experiencing these symptoms then you are clearly being tormented by the spirit of distraction whose ultimate goal is to disable you mentally. 

Well tonight I have come equip with the spirit of the lord to bring you spiritual and physical relief. Firstly, we are in fact dealing with a spirit, therefore in order to defeat a spirit we need spiritual weapons. So what are the spiritual weapons made available to us? Well, Jesus said that the words that he speak, they are SPIRIT AND LIFE, John 6:63.  

If the words that Jesus speaks are spirit, then clearly it is these words that we need to fight these evil spirits with. So far we understand that God's word is spirit, right? So, where is the proof in the bible that his words can heal our minds from this spirit of distraction? I am happy that you asked, scripture says, "He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destruction, Psalms 107:20. Wow! Does this mean that this word can heal my mind from this spirit of distraction and my in ability to focus? YES! Do I use any scripture? No! You must use specific scriptures that relates to your healing.

So, for all of you having challenges in your mind with this spirit repeat the following scriptures everyday to yourself or out loud even now,

"Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee", Isaiah 26:3 and also, "Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them, Psalm 119:165. Search the bible for all scriptures relating to your mind, one of my favorites, “God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of love, power and SOUNDNESS OF MIND.

As you repeat these scriptures begin to visualize in your mind the word acting as a sword, because that is exactly what it's doing according to scripture in the spirit realm as you SPEAK THE WORD!, "For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart, Hebrews 4:12. I promise you, just be patient and you will experience your ability to regain your focus and mental stability. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER KEY FROM THE KEYS YOU’VE BIN GIVEN TO THE KINGDOM, BE FREE!

The Power To Exceed!

It is always God's desire to exceed our highest expectation. Whatever it is that you're believing God for, HE WANTS TO EXCEED YOUR GREATEST DESIRE! The word exceed is defined as going beyond the limits of what is allowed or permitted. However, for this to happen, God certainly needs your full corporation. What do you mean, Kevin?

Well, scripture tells us that God will do exceedingly abundantly, and above all that we could ask or think ACCORDING to the power that works in us. Again, exceedingly means going beyond a determine mark or position, to go beyond the limits. Abundantly, on the other hand, means to be richly supplied or having something in great quantity. So far, we see that God wants to exceed our desires. However, the scripture goes on to identify our part by using the word "ACCORDING." The word according is defined as being in agreement or in harmony with someone or something.

Scripture further states, "according to the power that works in us," Now what is this power that the Apostle Paul speaks of? Well according to the Apostle Paul in Romans 1:16, he says, that he is not ashamed of the GOSPEL (The good news or the word of God) for it is the POWER unto salvation.

Let's bring it all together. God, who wants to take us beyond our limits, will not perform the exceedingly, abundantly and the above all that we could ask or think unless we are in agreement with his word, which is the power that resides in us. This simply means we must agree with his word, for example, "The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children" Psalm 115:14. Do you believe this word, are you behaving and speaking as if this word has already happened, do you repeat this word when you see the opposite of this word taking place in your life? Well, this is the understanding of the word working in us.

As proof of this revelation, Jesus said, "If ye abide in me and my WORD/POWER abides in you ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. The key to this remarkable revelation is the fact that God will not respond to your tears, situation, or challenge...... HE RESPONDS TO HIS WORD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, here are the keys to not only getting your prayers answered quickly but to exceed your highest expectation:

1) Search the scriptures as it relates to your challenges and give God back his word as it relates to those challenges. As an example, you are praying to God for a debt-free home, well his word says, "I will give you houses you did not build, I will give you land that you did not labor for, Deuteronomy 6:11 and Joshua 24:13. Make your request to God and support your request with his word, which is the evidence that he will do what he has said.

2) Now conclude your prayer, by asking God to exceed whatever you are asking for. If you are asking for wisdom, don't just ask for wisdom ask him to exceed the wisdom that you presently have, ask him to exceed the love in your heart, ask him to exceed your love for others, ask him to exceed your knowledge and understanding and most of all exceed your joy in the midst of whatever is challenging you emotionally.

Heavenly Father, we believe your word, and we come in agreement with your servant king David who said, “Thy word is a lamp unto our feet, and a light unto our path. It is my prayer, Father, that your word will break down every barrier that has caused your people to feel limited in their walk with you. I decree that as of this day that they will make their request to you with the confidence that you will do exceedingly, abundantly and above all that they could ever ask or think according to your word that works in them. We ask these things in the name of your son Jesus Christ, Amen!

I'v Made The Decision To Do Things Different Today!

Thank you, Jesus, this is such a wonderful Morning. Friends, I just want to give some insight into this blessed morning. I mentioned earlier in my statement that this was a wonderful morning. Many of you would probably believe I said that because I might be feeling good this morning or grateful that God has extended me the gift of life again, which is all true and good. Yes, that is true, but it's about observing life from a different perspective.

This morning feels especially remarkable because I have decided it is a beautiful day regardless of what happens today. Friends, we need to understand that if we rely on our feelings to determine the quality of our days, we may miss out on incredible opportunities and joy. Our feelings can be deceiving and lead us astray.

I encourage you to ask God this morning to help you let go of all negative emotions that conflict with the beauty of this day that He has blessed us with. Seek His guidance in aligning your thoughts to appreciate and embrace this day, no matter what challenges you may be facing. The truth is that there will always be difficulties in life. So, when negative thoughts arise and try to dictate your mood, remind yourself to choose positivity instead.

Do something different today. Take a walk on the beach this morning and begin to pray silently as you walk. Thank God for helping you renew your mind and maintain soundness of thought. Instead of focusing on your problems, which He is already aware of, say to God, "Please grant me stability in my mind to focus on You." Remind Him of His Word, which says, "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed upon Thee."

If you can't get to a beach, drive somewhere you have never been. While driving, set aside your issues for a moment. Begin praying, either internally or aloud, for others who may be going through similar challenges. Pray intensely for these people as you would pray for yourself, asking God to provide solutions. Yes, I know this sounds crazy, but indulge me for a moment.

If you face marital or financial challenges, I encourage you to ask God to heal someone else's marriage or finances. Perhaps you are unemployed as well. This morning, I strongly urge you to talk to God and pour out your heart to Him. Make a concentrated effort to pray for someone in a similar situation. I cannot emphasize enough that you must be determined to change to see change! Remember, what you sow, you will definitely reap. What you make happen for others, God will surely make it happen for you.

As you prepare for work or whatever you have planned for this morning, make a firm decision to expect an encounter with God via your commitment to pray for others. Even if those around you maintain their usual ways, determine that YOU WILL BE DIFFERENT, starting with changing your thought process by being selfless instead of selfish.

Let the following statements be your mental blueprint of your expectations. I AM DIFFERENT. I AM A WINNER, AND THE SOLUTIONS TO MY PROBLEMS ARE QUICKLY APPROACHING ME. I HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH. MY SITUATION IS NOT AS BIG AS IT SEEMS. NOT ONLY WILL I OVERCOME, BUT IN MY OVERCOMING, I WILL LEARN HOW TO INSTRUCT OTHERS ON HOW TO OVERCOME, IN JESUS' MIGHTY NAME.……………. You have a blessed day.

Thank you, Father, for those who have chosen to receive your inspired words of encouragement this morning. I pray that today, the spirits of negativity, selfishness, pride, arrogance, and any other negative influences causing these readers to neglect you will be removed permanently in Jesus' name. I also pray for a renewed mind filled with positive thoughts that lead to a positive outlook on life despite the negativity around them. Your Word teaches us to give thanks in all circumstances. Therefore, I thank you for restoring marriages, improving financial situations, and overcoming any challenges they may face. Most importantly, I pray that those reading this believe your Word and stand on the business of scripture as you manifest your promises in their lives, in the name of Jesus Christ!
