‭‭”…therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you…”James 4:7 (NKJV)

Sometimes, when people go through difficulties, all they do is just complain but the truth remains that, no matter the complaints, nothing will change. The reason is that complaining is not one of the things you are supposed to do that turn things around. As a matter of fact, when you complain, you are cooperating with your situation to complicate things.

However, to avoid this, you must make a conscious decision to quit complaining and start taking steps that will prevent that situation from escalating and becoming permanent. You must understand that what you don’t resist has the right to remain. If you don’t resist that health issue or financial crisis in your life, you have the right to remain. And if all you do is complain about what you are going through, and you do nothing to resist what you are going through, you have actually agreed for it to continue in your life.

So, to avoid granting that situation the right to remain in your life, consciously decide to resist the situation. You might say but how do I resist the situation? Well, we will be looking at that in the next part of the article, but until then, make a conscious decision to fight back and resist the situation instead of sitting down, complaining, and pushing blame. Praise God!

Today’s Rhema

What you don’t resist has the right to remain!

Confession for the Day

Today, I have received insight and wisdom. I refuse to complain any longer regarding my situation. I choose to fight back and resist that situation. I choose to conquer and come out of the situation victoriously in the name of Jesus. Amen!
