AFFIRM YOUR LIFE

I have adopted affirming my life as a way of life. It has done wonders for the transformation of my emotional, intellectual and spiritual being. I certainly need those three things aligned to the positive energy that circulates around us. You see, I understand completely that their health is directly tied to my ability to exist in peace and rest in the true nature of God. So I have learned to affirm, speak and claim, every powerful and positive thing I need to come into being in my life.

Interestingly, when I worked for a gospel station, I and some others on staff would often tease the midday host about a particular song she would play as she closed out a special prayer segment. In a weird kind of way, a strange piano key would be played at just the right moment as she read a scripture. So enthralled in the music and teasing her about it, I missed the power of that scriptural passage for years. It says: whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. It is about affirming.

I can raise my hand along with many of you at this statement - life has some hard, difficult, bad and painful days. A medical diagnosis, a broken marriage, a sudden death, a child bent on doing everything that pleases hell can register like an earthquake of unbelievable proportions in your life. Yet that are some true, honest, pure, lovely and just things that we can infuse into every situation to squash the negative and damaging energy that comes with hard moments. I am healed. I am whole in spite of who has walked out of my life. I am complete in me and my God. I am perfectly positioned to accept the provision that is for me. I am confident that my child is safe and that no manner of evil will overtake him. I am true and unconditional love and therefore true and unconditional love is all that will come into my life.

You have to affirm some things daily in your life. There are times my affirmations may change. I have learned to use them as weapons in my arsenal for holistic success achievement. That means I believe and accept that the words are more than just flowery statements. They are in fact, marching orders. I speak them and they go out and get what I speak. What are you speaking in your life today? What are you speaking about the hard challenges that shake you awake in the middle of the night? Are your words giving life to the challenges or giving life to the positive resolution of the same?

What can you affirm that speaks directly to what your life needs, right now? Write your affirmations, here I will help you get started:

I am all things light, where there is light there is no darkness.

I am powerfully positioned to bless others.

I am forgiving and I am forgiven.

Above all things know that what you speak is what will happen in your being and in everything connected to it. If you are going to talk, how about this: speak life, speak peace, speak joy, speak affirming words - otherwise be sure that you can live abundantly in what you say.
