28 Days To Transform Your Thinking

I've got something a bit different for you this week. I hope it will help you to think differently and cause your faith to soar.

It's an excerpt from a 28 day prayer focus by Chuck Pierce. If you want to see the whole thing just click on the link. It'll take you straight there.

This prayer focus will take you through the month of February.
  • Many of the days require you to answer a question that the Lord is asking.
  • Record your thoughts
  • Meditate on His word and allow it to break limitations from your life and renew your mind.
Any time the Lord wants us to think differently, He asks a question and waits for us to answer. This is how critical thinking works. Here's a list of questions for you to meditate on before the Lord that will cause you to think differently in days ahead.

This prayer focus will cause your faith to go to the next dimension. May you enlarge your way of thinking and increase your faith in 2007. Meditate and give Him an answer to the following.

Day 1: Read Proverbs 3. Lean not on your own understanding. Ask the Lord for your strategy of giving this year. Ask Him to fill your storehouses.

Day 2: Read Romans 8. Declare that your mind will submit to your spirit-man. Ask the Lord to fill your spirit with the Holy Spirit.

Day 3: Read Luke 18:35-43. Notice the question. Answer this as if you were the blind man being asked by Jesus... “What do you want ME to do for YOU?”

Day 4: Read 2 Kings 4, Mark 8:1-10. What do you HAVE that the Lord can USE? Reevaluate your resources and let the Lord reveal strategies for multiplication.

Day 5: Read I Kings 17, Luke 14:25-33. Will you put ME FIRST? Many times we fail the test of prioritizing our loyalty. Sometimes we must give first before our resources multiply.

Day 6: Read Matthew 26:31-35. Who are you really connected with? Will you stand with those who the Lord has connected you to? Reevaluate all of your connections and alignments.

Day 7: Read Luke 5:1-11. Is your net mended? Will you let the Lord direct you into a new place? Are you ready for the call that He has for your future?

Day 8: Read Luke 5:12-16. Will you boldly pursue the Lord and allow Him to touch you in a new way?

Day 9: Read Isaiah 6, John 21. Have you surrendered to your call? Are you willing to be touched so you speak in a new way?

Day 10: Read Mark 8:22-26. Could you tolerate being SPIT ON? Are you so conventional that an unconventional method of change would offend you?

Day 11: Read Mark 7:24-30. Are you OK to begin with the CRUMBS? Many of us are unwilling to take whatever we can get to start into a new season.

Day 12: Mark 9:33-37. Are you arguing over where you fit? Are you attempting to exalt yourself instead of waiting to be positioned properly? Is spiritual ambition driving you?

Day 13: Read 2 Samuel 5:1-16. Are YOU willing to go up the WATER SPOUT? The Lord has ways to determine who will be the leaders of the future.

Day 14: Read Luke 16:1-13 Are you more SHREWD than the world? Are you single-minded?

Day 15: Read Luke 13:10-17. Are you bent over or standing UPRIGHT? Has Satan weakened you in a way that keeps you from advancing?

Day 16: Read 1 Chronicles 21. Who will correct you?

Day 17: Matthew 25:1-13. This is a year of the lampstand. Is your Lamp or Candle TRIMMED?

Day 18: Mark 9:14-29. Can you BELIEVE? Are you without faith in some areas?

Day 19: Read 2 Kings 8. Are you cutting your losses and MOVING ON? If so, you will see the Lord bring back what you have lost.

Day 20: Read Acts 12. Are you ready to open the door for the next move of God? Are you ready to see your prayers answered?

Day 21: Read Acts 19:1-7. Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?

Day 22: Read 1 Thessalonians 5:12-23, James 5. Is your fire BURNING?

Day 23: Read Psalm 100, Genesis 26, Numbers 20:14-21. Are you willing to dig a new well and move on? Spend the day praising Him so that wells that have been shut up in your life will spring up. Get past anger, enmity, and contention. Build a new altar of worship.

Day 24: Read Luke 10:25-37. Will you stop along your way to help someone else?

Day 25: Read Genesis 12-15, 26, 28. How shall you inherit your promises? The Lord has your portion and your blessings. Let Him point you into faith.

Day 26: Read Isaiah 54. Do you see the weapons formed against you?

Day 27: Read Jeremiah 32, 33. Is there anything too hard for God? Call out to Him in a new way.

Day 28: Read Joshua 5, Daniel 1. Fast as the Lord leads you and expect visitation.

May you have a very happy and prosperous year.

May you learn to think critically in these critical times.

Receive a FINISHING ANOINTING to finish or complete those things that need to be completed in your life.

May this be the year of breakthroughs.
