Affirmations




2Ti 1:7 For God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

You can let go of fear and distorted perceptions and beliefs by writing positive affirmations, which will change your life forever. An affirmation cannot contain any negative words like “can’t, should not, don’t, won’t, stop” etc.

It should be written in present terms as though what you want already exists. For example:
I am in control of my life.
I am emotionally strong
I make good choices.
I have a strong, healthy body.
I have good relationships with people.
I am successful and empowered.
My life is filled with abundance.

Jam 3:6 And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. So the tongue is set among our members, spotting all the body and inflaming the course of nature, and being inflamed by hell. 7 For every kind of animals, and of birds, and of reptiles, and of sea-animals, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind. 8 But no one can tame the tongue, it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. 9 By this we bless God, even the Father. And by this we curse men, who have come into being according to the image of God. 10 Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

Remember, what you concentrate on is what you create. Write you affirmations by hand. Say your affirmations out loud, at least ten times per day. Concentrate on every word and listen to what you say. ‘Experience’ your success. ‘Be’ your success. Experience it through the art of visualization. Use as many of your senses as possible. See it, feel it, hear it, Be it.

You don’t have to believe your affirmations when you start. I can assure you that within one or two weeks of saying your affirmations out loud, 10 times per day, using as many senses as possible at the same time, you will “speak” your affirmation into being and not only will you believe it, you will ‘be’ it.

Create new experiences that you really want instead of living in fear of the ones you have now. Remember that your outer world is really a reflection of your inner world. Changing your inner world will change your outer world. In other words, changing your thoughts and beliefs will change your experiences and behavior.

Phi 4:8 Finally, my brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, whatever things are right, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, think on these things. 9 Do those things which you have also learned and received and heard and seen in me. And the God of peace shall be with you.

Affirmations will change negative beliefs you currently have. If you want to change a specific behaviour, create a specific affirmation to change the behavior.
In order to change the negative into a positive belief, do the following exercise:

NEGATIVE BELIEF / BEHAVIOUR POSITIVE AFFIRMATION
I am unsuccessful I am successful
I am unfit and unhealthy I am strong and healthy
I speak in anger I speak with love
I have a lot of debt I have financial abundance
My family is falling apart I have a loving, caring family
I am awful I am confident and charismatic


Affirmations should be used in conjunction with goal setting. Once you decide on the goal you want, you can write specific positive affirmations that will help you reach your goal.

Create the person you want and a life you really want and love, by accessing the power of your mind and the perfect will of God for your life, to change negative behaviors and to align your thoughts, words and actions.
