Joyce Meyer Devotional 24 July 2019 – Energize
Topic: Energize
Scripture: And there are distinctive varieties of operation [of working to accomplish things], but it is the same God Who inspires and energizes them all in all. – 1 Corinthians 12:6 (AMPC)
Message: To energize means, “to give strength or force to; to give active vigor to.”
All of our thoughts, good or bad, have an effect on our physical being. The mind and body are definitely connected. Positive, hopeful thoughts energize our soul and physical bodies, whereas negative, hopeless thoughts drain our energy.
Physical tiredness is not always a result of wrong thinking. We can certainly have a sickness or disease that leads to a loss of energy, or we may even wake up tired for no known reason. But we do know that science and medical technology verify that the mind and body have a close connection, and that our thinking does have a direct effect on our body.
Joyce Meyer Devotional 24 July 2019 – Energize
Our bodies are like automobiles that God provides for us to drive around on earth. If we want them to perform to their maximum ability and be energized, then we need to choose to think in ways that will help fuel them.
Prayer Starter: Lord, please help me to choose positive, hopeful, faith-filled thoughts today—thoughts that agree with Your Word and will energize my life. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
