Hello, everyone.
I don't normally post under Religion. While I am Spiritual, I am not religious.
However, I have something to say of a God nature, and decided to post.
I have seen some posts, lately, wherein the poster related about having
fears from some nightmare, or maybe there was a supernatural occurrence.
There is a way to protect yourself...and, that way is through prayer.
One prayer that can be easily memorized and brings a lot of comfort the more you say it, is:
The Light of God surrounds me;
The Love of God enfolds me;
The Power of God protects me;
The Presence of God watches over me;
Wherever I am, God is,
And all is well.
Also, there are many Scriptures in the Bible that advocate the positive thought process.
You can actually think and speak bad things into existence on yourself by thinking of
and dwelling on, maybe having fantasies about, bad things happening in your life.
Then, there are those times when others think and speak bad things against you.
When someone curses you, and thinks evil thoughts about you, they are in effect
calling things into existence 'that be not as though they were'.
You can counter those psychic attacks by simply rejecting those 'curses'.
Let every curse spoken against me
be broken and shattered and sent back to thee.
As I have spoken, thus shall it be,
in the Name of the Lord Jesus.
Pay attention to the way you say things, and what you are saying so that you do
not, inadvertently, put a curse on yourself. A curse is any negative thought, word
or action that will hinder your progress during any project, in any relationship,
in any situation you find yourself in on a daily basis...especially if it is spoken
or obsessed about with tremendous vehemence and passion. Expressing your
fears with intense emotion can give life to those fears.
Just as you can call negative things into existence, you can bring about positive
things, just by dwelling on that which is good. Think positive thoughts about
your life, yourself, your loved ones, your family, your friends. Speak positively
about every situation with which you are faced regardless of what is going on.
When I was growing up my parents prophesied over me...they didn't know they were
doing it, but they were. I heard things like You're never going to amount to anything.
I was called some ugly names, and told quite often how ignorant I was.
Yes, it hurt, and yes it could have had a detrimental affect on me if I had let it.
I chose not to let it. I grew into a very independent woman. As much as they
spoke those curses upon my head, I learned to speak good things upon myself.
Sometimes bad things still happen. That's just a given. You can only control what
you think, feel, and say. You can't control the thought processes of anyone else.
But you can choose not to let them 'run barefoot in your mind' and leave dirty
footprints all over it. You can choose to either let what they say have it's way,
or you can clean up the mess they leave behind in their wake.
You are worth far more than any curse anyone can possibly think or speak against you.
If you offend someone, make sure you apologize as soon as you've found out
you've offended them. Apologize all over the place, sincerely. If they accept that
apology, that's great. If they don't, oh well. You've done what you needed to do.
You can't govern how someone is going to react, so just apologize and let it be done.
If you are required to KEEP ON apologizing, then walk away. It's not worth it, and
somewhere down the road things are going to get worse.
Don't ask me why I've written all this in a post. It's late, 1:51am my time, and
my fingers and mind wanted to do this. So!
It's done.
HUGS
Hold up...I forgot something really important.
Do not hold anyone in unforgiveness. If someone offends you
forgive them, whether they ask you to, or not.
Unforgiveness will keep the door open for all kinds of negativity to creep in,
and all of that stuff will eat you up from the inside out.
When someone does something really dirty to you, says nasty things about you,
or takes something away from you they had no right to take, it's very easy
to dwell on the injustices that were done. But, doing that just causes you
more harm, in that you would be dwelling in the negative, and bringing more
negative things to you. It's best to just forgive...and forget revenge,
forget getting even, forget saying ugly things about the person or situation.
But, if you do find yourself in that mindset, you can change it by wishing
the person well...by speaking blessings over whoever it is, and by
just being kind, and forgiving what has been said and done....
regardless of whether or not it repairs the specific situation.
Just make sure you keep yourself repaired.
Doing good to someone who has done something ugly to you
is like heaping coals of fire on their heads. And, you will
find that good things will come to you more easily.
NOW it's done.
Hugs, again.
