Power of the tongue:- Repeat it to receive it.
Hey guys
Happy Sunday😊
Did you go to church today?
Well I did and I was glad I did cause I learnt a lot, although I woke up late today but was still able to meet the end of worship (praise and worship is one of the sweetest part of going to church).
I haven't been in the best mood lately, have been easily down, and there's just negativity everywhere, which isn't healthy; I've been working on it diligently. The pastor talked about the power of the tongue, and it felt as if he was speaking directly to me. This year 2022 has nothing in store for us; we will be the ones to establish how 2022 will be by what we contribute.
I wish I had written down all he said, but I still have some in my head. The majority of the time, we are confronted with obstacles or unpleasant events; what matters is how we handle them. For example, if we receive terrible news or are confronted with a dilemma, we should thank God first or refrain from saying anything, because most of the time, what you say first is what matters, and what you say first might become reality. It is not simple to do, and you may not even intend it, but if you say something that may effect your life, keep it to yourself or bless God.
He told a story about a chicken who tried to fight off an eagle carrying its chick but failed, so the eagle took it away, then another hen the eagle tried to take the chick away but it didn't fight back, so when it returned to its nest the birds asked what the hen did and he said nothing, so they asked him to return it because it was dangerous. People are usually interested in how you will react or what you will say in order to manipulate you. He also added that you can't lose on both sides, so don't let your loss ruin your next.
We should make it a practice to say pleasant things to one another.
These are some positive affirmations I say to myself:-
- I am strong, steady and grounded
- I am healthy
- I will be successful
- God's goodness radiates around me
- I am grateful for this day

Every morning, especially when you are feeling low, you can opt to say positive affirmations to yourself. Some days I don't even want to get out of bed because of all the negativity in my thoughts, so I listen to music or simply get involved, but the greatest method to motivate yourself is to say positive things to yourself, and the more you say them, the more they become a reality.
Thank you @Freedom007 for the sponsorship, I appreciate it💚😊
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
What I learnt in the service was that we we don't learn to pray but we actually practice to pray and when we do that more often we would notice changes
