Kingdom Affirmations
“You have to believe it before you see it,” Christopher S. Harold
The words we speak over ourselves have the power to shape the direction we travel in life. Years ago, Christopher was a high-performing sales representative. His company appreciated the work he was doing. He presented himself as a Christian among his co-workers. From the outside looking in, he seemed to have it all together.
What others did not see was the looming divorce, the drowning in over $30k in debt, and the readiness to end his own life. Christopher was convinced that his life was wasted and not worth living, that he was not worth living.
One day that changed when a friend called him and spoke positive affirmations over him. It may be bold to say that was enough to create a complete 180-degree turnaround in his life, however, a pivot began no less.
Today, Christopher is still with us, he is happily married with three children. Yes, he and his partner saved their marriage. They’re not just surviving. They’re thriving every day. They climbed out of debt, and eventually reached a point when it was time to quit the day job and turn his side-hustle into a full-time business.
What are affirmations?
The definition from Mindtools.com serves as a good explanation for affirmations as “Affirmations are positive statements that can help you to challenge and overcome self-sabotaging and negative thoughts.”
Have you ever caught yourself saying you’re not good enough for your job? You’re worried your co-workers will think you’re a fraud? Too fat? Too skinny? Too out of shape? There’s a negative thought library swirling through our minds holding us back from what we want to achieve. If you’re feeling stuck in a rut in life, you’ll find a bank of self-sabotaging thoughts behind this state.
Chris Harold had tried the usual affirmations and found them to be hollow in his own life. There were “prosperity gospel” if-this-then-that type of formulas he latched onto in those years that led up to a valley in his life. It simply was not working. It was at his lowest point in life when he recognized that his mindset was about what he could get out of God in terms of financial gain and wealth.
Chris was reminded of who he is in Jesus Christ and that he could activate the power of heaven in his life by adjusting the affirmations he poured into his life daily.
