PSALM Beliefs, Attitudes And Intentions...

Well, I have some catching up to do. I have been busy studying these few days and it has taken a toll on my body. I actually fell severely ill, a really bad flu if you put it. Thank God for the healing that is taking place, I feel much better now. I am very encouraged lately to even want to make my every effort to spend time with God.

Indeed these few days have not been easy for me, as much as I want to write my devotions, my body just can’t take the immense pressure that it was going through. But one thing is still for certain as psalm 57:7: my heart is still steadfast for God. Even when I was sort of bedridden for the past day or so, my heart was calling to God. I needed the Lord to sustain me, to heal me. In him, I will seek refuge until the disaster (virus) has passed.

There is a process called the B-A-I that I have learnt from marketing. It stands for Beliefs – Attitudes – Intention and is actually part of a customer’s buying process. I feel that I can apply this to the situation I’m in now.

Belief
What are my beliefs? I am certain that God will help me to overcome this sickness for He is ever faithful in His love for us. I believe that God is my healer and I can find my rest in Him.

Attitude
What is the attitude that I have? For I know that God will heal me and I can find my rest in Him, hence I will place my trust in Him. My heart will be steadfast for Him and I will trust in His love and faithfulness.

Intention
What will be my intention then? I will exalt Him for who He is, for the Lord is true to His word. I will praise Him and sing of His great love!

‘For great is Your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies.’- Ps57:10.
