It's a negativity tornado. Accusations, innuendos, lies, wars, and rumors fill the air in every space around us.
But that’s not you. You carry a different atmosphere. And everywhere you go, the atmosphere you bring fills the space you’re in.
You carry and are filled with the Spirit of Christ. He is the air we breathe.
Because of His presence in you, you have discernment. You see through the manipulation that tells lies as though they were truth. But you know truth because… you know Truth Himself!
Paul told his young protégé Timothy, “Stir up the gift that is in you!” In the Message version, it says, “And the special gift of ministry you received when I laid hands on you and prayed—keep that ablaze!”
People who speak lies that come close to the truth, using smooth, evil words that sound as if they’re right – that’s not your tribe.
The Spirit of God inside you is stronger than any lie, stronger than any deceptive spirit that is in the world. You can walk with confidence in your identity. You are a child of the KING!
“But you belong to God, my dear brother. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world!”
Be the atmosphere of Christ wherever you are. Calm the storm with Truth. Make the air fresh.
We bring the atmosphere of victory, not fear. We are men of courage, not whiners. Be that man.
And join me and men who live in that same atmosphere -- Lions Roar. Nov. 6-8. (https://brushfire.com/christianmensnetwork/events/591632) Dallas, TX.
