My dear friends..it's easy to be defeated before you even leave your house in the morning..When school started the Lord has been having focus on Him more in my mind..sounds a little childish huh..then the Lord reminded me that unless we have faith as a child we can't enter into Heaven..
Let's look at some other verses along these lines..
Col.3:1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
Phil 4:8Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.9Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
Hebrews 12:2Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Hebrews 11:14For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. 15And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. 16But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.
Folks..we are more than conquerors through Him..do not listen to the world..We are of the same Spirit as Joshua and Caleb..We shall overcome .We have been called from darkness into His marvelous light..we are children of faith..we are be loved we are blessed we are His children and in the palm of His hand..Rest in Him..delight thyself in him.. God bless,

Thanks for the replies..it's just easy to lose sight when the world is ...well let me copy a portion from my BIble..I'm at school..
Psalm 46...GOd is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. THEREFORE will not we fear , though the earth be removed , and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though the waters thereof roar and be troubled , though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof SELAH.
10..BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD.I WILL BE EXHALTED AMONG THE HEATHAN.
