Ought Against Any

Season #1 Episode #494

Good morning!

Today is Work in the Flow Wednesday ( The Health & Time Accelerator)

(You can learn more about the 7 Accelerators here) 

Wednesday is a reminder to work in flow with the Holy Spirit... Our indicators are peace and joy.

Health is a frequency, and working with peace and joy changes the internal environment.

Think about how much time we waste worrying, complaining, feeling down, venting, etc.

What could we accomplish if we reinvested that time into productive work with God. 

Focus on the emotional state you do everything in today, and if possible, work deeply on things that will really make a difference. 

Here is today's communion meditation.

This month we are talking about Resetting Your Confidence away from putting your confidence in yourself to putting your confidence in God.

When we do this we can always be confident because he never changes. 

One of the things that I think can eat away at our confidence is "ought."

Jesus said in Mark 11:25, " And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses."

What does it mean to have ought against someone?

I think when we feel someone "ought," or should have done or not done something and we hold it against them it means we have "ought."

But another forgotten area of "ought," is all of the "oughts," we are holding against ourselves. 

We tend to beat ourselves up over the things we should or shouldn't have done.

But this is forgetting the forgiveness and grace we have in Christ. We can put our confidence in the forgiveness of sins we have in him, and let it flow through us to others. 

When we stand praying, we should forgive and be gracious to ourselves and others. 

This opens our hearts to pray with confidence.

In today's communion we are asking God to help us remove any ought we have against ourselves or others so that we can pray with confidence. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

Through the years of coaching people in the gym, I've seen that it's a pretty common thing for people to beat themselves up because they ate a bad meal, missed a workout, or messed up in some other way. If this happens give yourself grace and get back on track, don't let it drag on. 

 I am praying for you.

Daniel
