"MY NEVER AGAIN LIST"
Never again will I confess "I can't" for "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me" (Philippians 4:13).

Never again will I confess lack, for "My God shall supply all of my needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19).

Never again will I confess fear, for "God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7).

Never again will I confess doubt and lack of faith, for "God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith" (Romans 12:3).

Never again will I confess weakness, for "The Lord is the strength of my life" (Psalm 27:1). "The people that know their God shall be strong and do exploits" (Daniel 11:32).

Never again will I confess supremacy of Satan over my life, for "Greater is He that is within me than he that is in the world" (1 John 4:4).

Never again will I confess defeat, for "God always causeth me to triumph in Christ Jesus" (2 Corinthians 2:14).

Never again will I confess lack of wisdom, for "Christ Jesus is made unto me wisdom from God" (1 Corinthians 1:30).

Never again will I confess sickness, for "With His stripes I am healed" (Isaiah 53:5). Jesus "Himself took my infirmities and bare my sickness" (Matthew 8:17).

Never again will I confess worries and frustrations, for I am "Casting all my cares upon Him, who careth for me" (1 Peter 5:7). In Christ I am "care-free."

Never again will I confess bondage, for "Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty" (2 Corinthians 3:17).

Never again will I confess condemnation, for "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1). I am in Christ; therefore, I am free from condemnation.

Never again will I confess loneliness, Jesus said, "Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world" (Matthew 28:20). "I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee" (Hebrews 13:5).

Never again will I confess curses or bad luck, for "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us...that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith" (Galatians 3:13-14).

Never again will I confess discontent because "I have learned, in whatsoever state (circumstances) I am, therewith to be content" (Philippians 4:11).

Never again will I confess unworthiness because "He hath made Him to be sin for us who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him" (2 Corinthians 5:21).

I have forgotten what it feels like to have a quiet moment. Haven't had one in 3 years. Keep me in your prayers...

Hebrews 11:1 "Now Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."

Today I have the house to myself, no television... no radio or CD playing...just quiet! Reflecting on the confirm word God gave about His eternal spirit within us and that in Him there is no absolutely no condemnation in Him. What joy in loving and being love by Him. I'm Feeling refresh, inspire and thankful.

A few hours later, my soul is still rejoicing in the Lord!

Woke up this morning feeling rejoiceful. My soul rejoicing in the Lord singing, "This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it!" Rejoice I say, rejoice!

A few years ago while living in Jersey City, New Jersey, I can recall going to Liberty State Park to watch and listen to ocean. It brings comfort and peace to my soul.

I remember getting up at 5:00 in the morning when all the house was still and quiet. The sun would still be coming up. The air was fresh the sun would begin to peek. I would drive 15 minutes to my local gym. When I got there no one was on the track but me. I would walk around the track and then let myself flow into a brisk jog all the time meditating on the beauty of creation. The sun, the green grass, the sound of a waking city. I would just be one with my thoughts and talk to God about everything. I would feel so relaxed when I finished. There is nothing like waking in the early hours in the morning to go out and commune with God and nature.
