OUR PERCEPTION BECOMES OUR REALITY
Our natural tendency is to be double-minded; at one moment, we are speaking faith, and the next moment, we are speaking fear and doubt. As a result, our dual confession is inconsistent with our faith declaration, and we have become double-minded. Our words have a creative energy that can produce both negative and positive results. Our perception becomes our reality, and our perceptions are shaped by our five carnal senses, which are how we interpret our surroundings and circumstances. What you see, what you hear, how you feel, and how you interpret these senses will produce your perception. This is where we must discipline ourselves to interpret our perceptions in the light of God’s Word, as opposed to our natural feelings. How we perceive an event will shape how we think, which will produce how we feel and how we react or respond to the event. How many people throughout history have changed their adverse circumstances by refusing to allow the negative events of life to create a defeated mindset? As a result, they have conquered their adversaries, defeated their foes, and vanquished their demons by rejecting the lies of the enemy and standing firm on the promises of God. - MLD
