“Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life.”
Proverbs 4:23 (NKJV)

NOVEMBER 19 - The range of voices and the gallery of thoughts that enter your mind are seeds. You have a choice over which seeds get planted, and which get rejected. Your heart becomes the fertile soil where those
seeds are planted. When planted, those seeds mature and produce fruit in your life.

There is no way to avoid this process of “heart germination,” for the Bible tells us in Proverbs 4:23 that this is how God designed the human heart to function. “Keep [manage, tend, protect, safeguard, watch over,
preserve, chaperon, care for, be a good steward over] your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life.” The only way to assure good outcomes in your life is to plant good seeds in your heart.
When I was going through a difficult time in my life, it was because early in my childhood, bad seeds were planted in my heart, grew up, and produced bad fruit. Destructive thought-seeds take root and begin
to grow because you choose to believe them. Erroneously, you begin to believe that what they say is the truth. You begin to believe evil about yourself. However, it is important to realize that any thought left
unchallenged is established as fact.

Why not deposit an abundant crop of good seeds into your heart today, so that you too create a bountiful future?

Father, I thank You that my heart is the soil where my thoughts become seeds that create my future.

You Are Healed - Book

From God’s perspective, health is not something that we lack and must try to attain. Rather, it is a possession that is already ours – but the thief is trying to steal it!

Jesus went to the cross to deliver us, once and for all, from the curse of sickness and disease. So, why does divine healing often seem to be so elusive? It’s because the only proof we have of our healing, until it is manifested, is the written Word of God.

Nevertheless, God’s Word is all the proof we need! Dr. Thompson shows you how to apply the principles of God’s Word to your life, until you experience the divine health in which God intends you to walk. This book equips you with the spiritual prescription needed to attain health, wholeness, and vitality in your body.

“My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge…”
Hosea 4:6 (NIV)

NOVEMBER 18 - Jesus proclaimed that His Word is truth and those who know the truth shall be set free. Regardless of what we plainly see, distinctively hear, or clearly perceive with our natural senses, God’s Word still holds true. It amazes me that God’s people perish from a lack of knowledge because of the simple fact that God gave us His Word so that ignorance would be eradicated in our lives.

The truth of God’s Word brings light to any dead and dark situation. As we begin to meditate upon the pages of God’s written Word, freedom begins to manifest itself in our lives.

• His Word brings understanding where there was no understanding.
• His Word brings hope where there was no hope.
• His Word brings freedom where once there was once only bondage.

God desires for all of His people to be free and live long, healthy, and abundant lives. But until we embrace the truth of God’s Word, it is impossible to walk in the freedom that God provided for us or to become victorious in that truth.

Daily Confession

Father, I thank You that You gave me Your written Word. I meditate upon Your Word and apply it to every situation bringing light into all areas of my life. I know the truth of Your Word and the truth makes me free.

The RQ Factor - CD

Your Relationship Quotient

After observing interpersonal relationships for over three decades, Dr. Robb Thompson made a remarkable discovery that he wants to share with you: Contrary to popular belief, the outcome of your life is not determined by your intelligence (IQ), your physical appearance/abilities (PQ), or your ability to manage your emotions (EQ). Your life is determined by your ability to link yourself with those who carry your future within them – your Relationship Quotient.

Using compelling personal examples, Dr. Thompson illustrates how his own life changed for the better only when he changed his relationships. He presents profound principles that will alter the course of your future, if applied – principles such as:

• In life, you decide your relationships; then your relationships decide your destiny.
• If you want to accurately predict a man’s future, just take a look at his present friends.
• Relationships are magnetic – pulling you closer to or driving you further away from your divine destiny.

Proverbs 13:20 says, “Become wise by walking with the wise; hang out with fools and watch your life fall to pieces” (Message). Are you ready to change your future? It’s time to raise your Relationship Quotient!

“And 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)

NOVEMBER 17 - Your mind can only hold one thought at a time. Therefore, the easiest way to get rid of negative thoughts is to replace them with positive thoughts. The most effective way to do this is with your spoken words. Your mind has to entertain what your mouth says.

The mind is never empty; it is always occupied with a thought. Spoken words override unspoken thoughts. By substituting your thoughts, you can replace troubling thoughts with a God-thought that has the power to transform your life.

You can’t be filled with nagging fear, relentless doubt, and abject worry when you constantly meditate upon God’s Word. As long as you don’t allow negative thoughts to be planted into your mind, growing like weeds in your flower garden, you discover peace, joy, and happiness. But the transformation of your life is linked to your commitment to change the way you think.

Daily Confession

Father, I thank You that I am not conformed to this world but I am transformed by the renewing of my mind. My mind is renewed by Your Word.

“I will walk in freedom, for I have devoted myself to Your commandments.”
Psalm 119:45 (NLT)

NOVEMBER 16 - “As the scriptures hath said.” It was a customary phrase for Jesus—quoting the scriptures, bringing knowledge and freedom to the children of Israel. So always remember, there is no freedom outside of the Word of God. The Scripture tells us we are all born slaves to sin.

Through our acceptance of what Jesus Christ did on the cross, we are set free from the bondage of sin. Even though we have been set free, we still wonder how to walk in that freedom. It is one thing to be free, but walking in the fullness of that freedom is something completely different. I am convinced that the most miserable man in the universe is the one who has been set free, yet has no idea how to walk it out.

God gave us the knowledge we need in order to walk in the fullness of our redemption. We know David discovered it because of the words he penned, “I will walk in freedom, for I have devoted myself to Your
Word.” So many see that as information they already know, but to David, it was revelation that utterly transformed his life. David’s decision to devote himself to the Word of God enabled him to walk in the liberty that was rightfully his…and the same holds true for us. It is of necessity that we commit ourselves to meditate on the Word of God every day. In whatever area you may struggle, the freedom you desire lies within the pages of God’s holy Word.

Daily Confession

Father, I thank You that my freedom lies within the pages of Your Word. I embrace what You say and exchange what I think for what You think. I am free and I reign over the sin that had me bound.
