Friends....
I heard T.D. Jakes Sunday preaching on “Who told you?” referring to Adam’s discovery that he was naked. God responded, “Who told you?” He made the point that sometimes we say to ourselves I am not this, or that such as “I’m so dumb” and God answers who told you? or, I’m just a loser...or I’m too old, I could never do that....why am I always this way, etc. We need to get a second opinion: God’s opinion as to what HE thinks of me. Sometimes our mood is governed negatively by what others tell us what we are and how we’ve done something. Get God’s opinion. I was greatly helped by this thought: “Who told you?” Thought you might want to chew on it and see what you can get out of it. Put it into practice: “Who told you?”
“Amazing Grace, how sweet it sounds!”

Amen! That's good, Chuck! I often find myself thinking, "I can't do this!" and then the Holy Spirit reminds me, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." The devil loves to condemn us, doesn't He? What a great blessing to be able to put it all at the foot of the cross, and find deliverance from the accuser through the blood of Jesus! Like Roy Hession used to say, we are like batteries - we bring our negative to Jesus and He brings His positive so we can live to His glory.
