ACCEPTANCE: OPENING UP YOURSELF TO GOD'S HELP

-


I shared on my WhatsApp status yesterday that a lot of us struggle with a lot of things because we have refused to acknowledge or come to that point of accepting what is actually on ground.

What do I mean?

I believe that the first step in overcoming or gaining victory over certain things or conditions is ACCEPTANCE.

That is, you have to acknowledge that such thing is present. Do not fake it.

For example, if someone really hurt you, the first step to forgiving such person is accepting that you are hurt. Or that you feel bitter or resentful.

Acknowledge the fact that you are hurt by what they said or did.

It's easy to pretend, and say 'you are fine'. 

But don't hide your true feelings under that canopy.

It's the same thing with having certain complexes and biases about certain things.

Let's take inferiority complex as an example.

If you want to deal with it, you have to accept the fact that it is present.

You have to stop hiding under the canopy that you are 'being humble', when in reality you are feeling inferior.

It is after acknowledging that it is something you struggle with that you truly begin to find ways to overcome it.

Whatever it is, do not pretend that it is not there when you know it is.

Stop covering it up and continue to think that you will get better.

I know coming to that point of accepting that you need to deal with it or you need help with it could be harrrdddd!

But you know what? 

If you do not deal with it from the root, no matter how much you cover it up, it will still remain there.

Our greatest deliverance begins the moment we face it, and open up ourselves to God's help.

With soooo much love,

Mhoyeen. 2021.

P.S- I should talk about inferiority complex some other time. What do you think causes it? 

Can we really overcome that feeling of inferiority totally?

I invite you today to accept Jesus Christ into your heart, if you have not. He loves you. And he wants you to radiate beauty and fulfill purpose. All you have to do is believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that God raised him from the dead to give you eternal life. Say this with me. 

"Lord Jesus, I come before you today. I believe and confess that you died for me and rose again to give me eternal life. Thank you for coming into my life. Thank you for forgiving my sin. Thank you for saving me. I am born again. I am saved. I am a child of God in Jesus name, Amen."

If you said this short prayer, congratulations! You are a new creation in Christ Jesus.

Please send me a message. I will be glad to talk and pray with you.😊

    I think inferiority complex could be the result of pride and ignorance

    Ma what if the person picks up a fight if you try to tell him/ her about the wrong doing or feels it no big deal and you're not expected to be angry about it
    Secondly if the person doesn't give room at all or the person is elderly and not approachable.
    Inferiority is something I actually fought with growing up and still healing

AMPLIFY YOUR STRENGTHS!

-
It is true that every human is blessed with certain gifts, strengths, unique abilities and is created for a purpose. In fact, we hear it again and again through the numerous seminars, conferences and teachings that we have attended (and will still attend), that we all have strengths and potentials that are peculiar to each of us. It is one thing to hear and know that we have all of these within us; it is something entirely different for our eyes to be opened to them. Some of us have entered into the room of self-discovery and are beginning to find out some interesting things about ourselves. Yet, quite a number of us do not see our strengths and have concluded that we carry nothing special. So, we begin to think that probably God did not give gifts to everyone afterall.  I have been there myself, and I know how frustrating that can be. We give so much time to looking at what others can do well and give little or no attention to the things we can do effortlessly. Our strengths lie i...

MY JOURNEY (1)

-
I left the examination hall that afternoon with so much anxiety. I just hoped that everything would eventually turn out fine. The aggregate score of each candidate for the examination would be sent via a text message the next morning.  Those who knew me well, understood that I never joked with having a good sleep. But this time, I kept rolling from one end of the bed to the other as it was quite difficult for me to sleep. All that went through my head were thoughts of what I would score in the examination.  At exactly 7am, my phone vibrated as it would when a text message was delivered. I was so certain that it was the message containing the result. I rushed to pick up my phone on the table beside the bed, and there it was. “Recharge N400 and get up to N1000 worth of airtime. Dial bla bla bla…” I did not bother to read the rest of the message. I was waiting to receive a message from JAMB not some mobile network. I let out a long hiss as  I dropped the phone on the bed i...

THAT IT APPEARS GOOD DOES NOT MAKE IT RIGHT

-
It's my first post of the year, and I'm glad I get to give you this as my little birthday gift! I appreciate the love showered on me on my birthday yesterday. I'm grateful for you! If you are new here, welcome!😊 Let's get right into it! . . . Now, God is ever willing to lead us aright. And this is why he has given us the Holy Spirit to dwell in us. See what Jesus says here in John 14:16‭-‬17 (EASY) 👇 "I will ask the Father to help you with this. He will send another Helper to be with you. That Helper will stay with you always. He is God's Spirit, and he shows you what is true...." The Holy Spirit shows us what is true. But sometimes we do not enquire to know the mind of God concerning certain situations. We depend on what we think is the right way. That it appears good does not make it right.  That's why the Bible tells us not to lean on our understanding. See👇 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. In all...
