Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2 (NKJV)
We all have mis-beliefs that hold us back from grabbing hold of everything God has for us. For example, if you have been struggling with a health issue for a long period of time, you may have given up hope that you will ever be free of it. You know on an intellectual level that God heals people but you question if He will really heal you.
You need to release God’s promise to heal you. Isaiah 53:5 says “with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole.” Psalm 103:3 says that God “heals all your diseases.” Dive into your Bible as never before. When you come across an area of your life that you feel is lacking, find Bible verses that speak about it and feed yourself God’s thoughts and beliefs. His power will rise up within you to release His promises in your life!
Learning to release blessing sounds like work! But you don’t work to earn it. When you give your life to Jesus, He qualifies you to be blessed. That is instant. Your part involves renewing the way you think and what you believe. When you read God’s Word, it enlightens your mind and takes root in your heart. It is not about being good so God will bless you. It is about using your authority to release what God has already given you.
