Agreements
Agreement (as defined by dictionary.com):
1. the act of agreeing or of coming to a mutual arrangement.
2. the state of being in accord.
3. an arrangement that is accepted by all parties to a transaction.
Would you say that an agreement is mutual? That it is being of one accord? Accepted by all parties involved? A transaction?
John Eldridge in His book "Walking with God" talks about the agreements we make with the enemy about ourselves and who God is. With the above definition in mind this is HUGE for us as believers. To actually think that I could make an agreement with the liar of liars? An agreement could be simple as thought that "God doesn't love you" or " You dont have what it takes" "You are all alone". How often do we challenge our thoughts? Or as my dad recently put it, doubt our doubts? Our lives as followers of Christ are anything but normal, but what is the normal we live in? Romans 12, be transformed by the renewing of your mind. There will be partial agreements put out there for you and I to agree with or push back. Gods Truth is the only thing that brings LIFE. If it feels that you are dying inside, ask the Lord to show you His truth, and to reveal any lies that you have agreed with. LIVE LIFE LOVED my friends.
