Your Mindset


Consider a field with a scarecrow and a flock of hungry crows sitting on the boundary fence.

In scripture, "birds of the air" are usually a symbol of theft, curses or the demonic. For the sake of this analogy, please assume that the crows here are not symbolic of something bad, but just hungry animals looking for food. Please bear with me, as this picture may prove helpful.

The scarecrow in the field can be seen by the crows in two ways, either:

1/ it's a frightening thing, an ominous figure that induces terror.
2/ it's a dead giveaway that there's a load of food there; else why would it need protecting?

It all DEPENDS on how one would interpret the SAME circumstance.


If The Lord is allowing it, consider this, your circumstances might be an opportunity for  blessing/training!!
"...Only do not rebel against the Lord, nor fear the people of the land, for they are our bread; their protection has departed from them, and the Lord is with us. Do not fear them.
Numbers 14:9

Whatever the territory, within yourself (soul) or the "arena" you are called to, go and possess the "land" God has promised you. "For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us"
2 Corinthians 1:20

Appropriate, the once for all victory by Jesus Christ's death on the cross, to the issue.



Cheering you on, in Jesus,

David
