WEEK 2 - POSITIVE BIBLICAL AFFIRMATIONS

 Over the last year or so God has been changing my mindset in how I see myself. I am definitely not where I need to be but I have come a long way. 

This transformation has come in a couple of different ways. First, I have made time to actually stop, be still & actually listen to see what my Heavenly Father has to say. I was totally blown away at the wonderful things he had to say to me, about me. I literally sat & cried one day when I realized that all of the lies that the enemy had been speaking to me all of the years, were not true, and that it was ok to have a more positive outlook on myself. Second, I searched God's word for His truth about me.

The following scriptures is what God laid on my heart & since then I have been passing them on to other women. 

In a world surrounded by negative, we desperately need to take time for positive affirmations. Not just any affirmations but biblical, straight from the heart of our Father.

Please take time, as consistently as possible, to recite these to yourself. I promise you, you will see and feel a difference.
