"I Can't"
There are so many things that we think we CAN'T do.
"I can't change. I can't believe that. I can't go on. I can't make it. I can't forgive. I can't recover. I can't get it done. I can't find a job. I can't find a spouse. I can't go back to college. I can't pay the bills. I can't figure this out." And the list could go on and on.
Believe me, this MENTALITY and ATTITUDE, sets us up to fail, to quit and to live a negative existence. It is a poisonous thought that we must no longer eat or drink of.
From today on, we're replacing this thought with: "I CAN!"
Philippians 4:13 declares, "I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME."
There's a saying that goes: "If you think you CAN or you think you CAN'T, you're right." Either way, you're right, because as a man thinks, so is he (Proverbs 23:7).
The Spirit of God lives in you. You CAN do what HE CAN do in you. 1 John 4:17 says, "As He is, so are we in this world."
LET'S CHANGE IT TODAY
1. Remember the little engine that could: Over fifty years ago, the book called, The
Little Engine That Could, spoke to a generation of children: "I think I can. I think I
can. I think I can." AND IT DID!

2. Say it: "I can." By simply saying this continually, your life will take the turn you
desire.

3. You ARE, therefore you CAN. Remember that you ARE more than a conqueror,
therefore, you CAN conquer anything (Romans 8:37).

4. BELIEVE the Bible is written about YOU. Fill your mind with Philippians 4:13:
"I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me!"
"I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me!"
5. Change your thinking. Change your habit. GET the words "I can't" out of your
vocabulary today. Stop yourself everytime you feel like saying "I can't"; and let the
new thought "I can" come out of your mouth. The more your ears hear your voice
say this, the easier it becomes to believe it.
