WHEN OTHERS JUDGE US FALSELY AND WE BELIEVE THEM, WE WILL BE OPERATING ON FAULTY DATA!

The passage, ‘The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds’ (2 Corinthians 10:4 NKJV), reminds those of us who, because we were too young to process the mistreatment meted out by older family members that, like Joseph, our ‘stronghold’ may have been established early in life and if we fail to take that crucial first step, we will remain stuck right where we are. In other words, when others judge us falsely and we believe them, we will be operating on faulty data. So let the knowledge that: 1) Family pain is the deepest pain, because it is inflicted so early and involves people who should have been trustworthy; 2) Decades later those voices of defeat still echo in our subconscious; and 3) Once we learn to defend ourselves, we will rise above the circumstances, overcome the challenges and live in the fullness of our God-given potential; teach you, when negative, fearful, guilt-ridden, inferior, condemning thoughts arise, to reject them and instead, start repeating what God says about you in His Word!FG. www.fgtalks.com
