Thankfulness Brings Victory
– From When Satan Attacked My Thoughts by Joyce Meyer
I Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Perhaps millions of people lay in bed each day and think, I don’t want to get up. My life is miserable. Nothing good ever happens to me. All my life people have taken advantage of me. I hate my life and I dread facing another day.
I woke up daily for many years with some version of this type of thinking. I was miserable, and I made myself more miserable with my own thoughts and attitude. I was unaware that I could do anything about my life, so I remained a victim. But, thank God, He has given me the victory through Christ! He wants to give that same victory to anyone who has been a victim and needs redemption.
Don’t let self-pity keep you from seeing victory in your life. Watch as Joyce shares about the self-pity she once struggled with and what God shared with her to overcome those feelings.
Tip:
Spend five minutes each day being thankful for the victories that God has given you.
