"It Isn't Our Position, But Our Disposition"

"Everything seems to go wrong when you feel weak and depressed. But when you choose to be cheerful (happy) every day will bring you more and more joy and fullness." Proverbs 15:15 (TPT)

Daily life can become so taxing and difficult it will remove you from a place of ever having a satisfied life. Many work hard because they feel as if they can change their position in life they will be happier. Happiness is not something that can be obtained by your status or position in life, it is the disposition of a person that leads them into the fullness of happiness.

A position can be a relative place, situations, or a standing, a situation that confers advantage or preference. Disposition is the qualities of mind and character, your mentality, the way you think, an inclination, or your makeup.

It's not the position of a life that makes you happy but your disposition that will promote a healthy frame of mind that signifies the enjoyment of what life offers. When we have victory in our hearts it will automatically exude winning, and the cheering begins. To have the right disposition about life is to have the right attitude. Affliction does not blot out our joy, even in moments of weakness with the right disposition in God we have a source of joy and happiness.

Today I encourage you to choose to be happy, choose to enjoy life, choose peace, it will give you strength to stand in the midst of trouble and trials. Misery loves company and you have to choose to let misery spend it's nights by itself. When you feel weak and depressed you don't have to stay in that position. Solomon realized in Ecclesiastes 3:12 that "the best thing for people is to be happy and enjoy themselves and long as they live." Solomon also realized that this world with all its goodness and beauty is not as good as it gets. There is more, so much more. You have the keys to unlocking your best life, so arise because God is in this, this is not propaganda but a promise, it isn't your position, but it's your disposition (how you choose or decide) that will make you happy!

UN-DO!

S.E.E.D. For Today: Scripture: "Undo The Heavy Burdens" ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Example: There was a great deal of injustice in the land and with the rich exploiting the poor and the rulers using their authority only to make themselves richer. It was a conflict between truth and lies, just like in our land today. The people of God were no different in operating under the same system as this. But God called them out and wanted them to understand that their fasting was in vain if they did not undo the heavy burden they placed on others while still outwardly devoting themselves to religion or as they thought to God. Exercise: Let's invite the Holy Spirit to solve problems and aid us in lifting loads and overcome barriers that keep us and our loved ones from walking joyfully in the Lord. In self-denying love and care for others, let's undo any heavy burden or untie any yoke that we may have placed upon friends, family, associates or even employees. Devotion: Lord toda

Looking Forward to What Lies Ahead

"But all these things that I once thought very worthwhile, now I've thrown them all away so that I can put my trust and hope in Christ alone. Yes everything else is worthless when compared with the priceless gain of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. I have put aside all else, counting it worth less than nothing, in order that I can have Christ, and become one with Him, no longer counting on being saved by being good enough or by obeying God's laws, but by trusting Christ to save me; for God's way of making us right with Himself depends on faith, counting on Christ alone. Now I have given up everything else, I have found it to be the only way to really know Christ and to experience the mighty power that brought Him back to life again, and to find out what it means to suffer and to die with Him. So whatever it takes, I will be one who lives in the fresh newness of life of those who are alive from the dead. I don't mean to say I am perfect. I haven't learned all I sho
