I received the following from Momsooky through e-mail from her yahoo group:
Some of you may remember about two years ago We had 2 series about "40 fast from wrong thinking". Now Gregory Dickcow has a new 40 day series
"Revolution: From the inside out". This is the first of 40 posts.
Day 1>
As we launch our all new Fast from Wrong Thinking, 2010, believe in the possibilities of what can happen in your life. Nothing is impossible to the man or woman who conquers their thought life. God is with you. God is for you, and the best news of all: God is working IN you!
Today we're fasting from the thought that says:
"I Can't Change!"
We've all felt at times like we can't change a certain habit, or a characteristic about ourselves. Perhaps you feel like you'll always be easily angered, afraid or worried. Well, that's what this fast from wrong thinking is all about. As we change our thought patterns and mindsets, ANYTHING can change. And changing our mindsets is simply a process of replacing defective thoughts with biblical mindsets. So, if you've felt like you can't change, you CAN...
CHANGE IT TODAY:
1. Believe that the power to change is a GIFT.
2 Timothy 2:25 says God grants `repentance', or `the power to change', as a gift. The ability to experience lasting change in any area of our life is a gift from God.
2. Receive the gift of repentance or "the gift to change", by FAITH. Believe that every good gift comes from the Father (James 1:17).
3. All change begins by believing you are loved by God. Romans 2:4b says, "Don't you realize that it is God's lovingkindness that is trying to lead you to Him and change the way you think and act?" (God's Word Translation).
4. Notice in that verse His love & kindness changes the way we think; THEN it changes the way we act. All lasting change begins by surrendering my thought life to the Word of God (Romans 12:2).
5. Believe in the process that leads to progress. Don't worry if it doesn't happen right away. Jesus touched the blind man once, than touched him again, before he was completely healed (Mark 8:22-26).
6. Re-define yourself ONLY as what God says about you. Disconnect from past definition of your habits, traits and limitations. You are being changed into His image. (2 Corinthians 3:18)
THINK IT & SAY IT:
God has given me the gift to change. I can change my habits, emotions and life by changing the way I think. I submit to the process of renewing my mind, and I expect divine progress and supernatural change. I believe the love that God has for me, and that produces change in me. I refuse to accept past definitions and limitations of myself. As I embrace God's view of me through the mirror of His Word, I am being changed into His image, in Jesus' Name.
In His Great Love,

More From The Girlfriends
Today's devotion was taken from Sharon's new book, What God Really Thinks about Women: Finding Your Significance through the Women Jesus Encountered. We tend to read the gospels with our twenty-first century eyes. But when we understand how oppressive the culture Jesus stepped into was against women, we begin to understand just how radical Jesus' ministry, messages, and miracles were at setting women free. He risked His reputation to save theirs...and yours. To order this life-changing book, visit www.sharonjaynes.com. You'll fall in love with Jesus all over again.
