Christian Living

---

Greetings!

There are only three mindsets in life. Three ways we view ourselves. The first: is a lie, usually based on early child trauma or abuse. The second: is based on life happening to us; a flawed belief system. The third: is accurately based on a renewed mind and relationship with Christ Jesus.

Let us now, explore this further so we can all "get it!" and share it with others. Read the following with an open mind and a heart ready to receive the truth. Here I become transparent and that you may see the symptoms of abuse.

The victim-spirit is carnal and double minded: It attracts predators and tolerates any and every form of abuse. How do I know this is true? Thank you for asking, ha! I used to be a victim. And I attracted predators all the time. It was as though I had an invisible sign on my forehead; a distinct scent or fragrance that warned others that I was easy prey. Is this you or someone you know?

The survivor-spirit is clutter minded: It is frustrated and angry; attracts mediocrity; settles for less; and attracts subtle forms of abuse. In other words, I walked around as the "living dead"...numb and lifeless. My dreams and hopes were on hold; mute button mode. Even though I was Spirit-filled and loved God - I suffered in silence; in pain; in shame; in torment. Is this you or someone you know?

The world overcomer-spirit is renew minded: It walks in the dominion, power and authority of Christ Jesus; fully in armor. Willing, ready and confident in God's ability to watch over His word to perform it. This mindset comes by faith and love; by choice. In other words, I had to make a decision to choose love - choose God. Then I had to want to believe Him [Absolute Truth], over the lies of my abusers and my accusers. Is this you or someone you know?

Our Father God empowers you and me with supernatural ability as we Choose Love. He gives us the Authority and Power to use the name of Jesus. His blood has already covered every aspect of "life" as we know it. He experienced abuse; He knows the wounds and words and pain associated with rejection. He sees us struggling to stay afloat in life.

You see, the truth that you embrace and believe will set you free! It is a choice. Only you can make the decision. God will not - cannot force you to receive from him. Do you understand?

God expects you to: take dominion over life's circumstances; and Win! God expects you to: put on His armor and Speak His Words; and Win! God expects your prayers to be answered because of Faith; and love; and Win! God expects you: to enter the Throne Room as an Ambassador for Christ: An Ambassador of Love.

In other words, I had to come in alignment with what God sees and says of me; otherwise, I choose to stay defeated and in bondage. By this, I am merely stating that it comes down to this: Either choose love and forgiveness or [by default], keep what you got and continue to be miserable; weak; feeble minded; struggling; hurting in silence; ashamed and afraid and a target for predators...all the time. Is this you or someone you know?

You are not here for everyone. You carry an 'Anointing' and it is for a specific people or group of people - for purpose. You are vital! You are an Ambassador for Christ: An Ambassador of Love. Go! Forth! It takes courage to dare hope again, ha! God wants you to hope and keep moving forward....In Him. Do you part: Choose. And let God be Lord in your life, ha! Enter in and live the abundant life, In Christ, ha! Yes! Yes! You got it! Get before God and stay in his presence until you are transformed by love, ha! Just believe and receive...it is a choice.

"Choose Love. It looks good on you."(tm)

2 Corinthians 5: 20 Says it like this:

"We're Christ's representatives. God uses us to persuade men and women to drop their differences and enter into God's work of making things right between them. We're speaking for Christ himself now: Become friends with God; he's already a friend with you." The Message Bible)
