| 6 - Refusing Attitudes of Blight
Isaiah 61:
1 "The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me,
Because the LORD has anointed Me
To preach good tidings to the poor ....
(New King James Bibe)
At ExitBadLuck.com we are addressing the syndrome of misfortune/poverty as a curse upon
the finances
and/or the health
and/or relationships with people.
Misfortune/Poverty often sticks with people who cling to certain attitudes:
These blighting attitudes are:
 Someone else is to blame for my situation and my lack.
 I can't wait!
 I must have what I want now! Immediately!
 Someone owes me big time for what I've been through:
my mother, father, brother, sister, the church, the government, society, etc.
 I must be given another chance because everyone else had more advantages in life than I did.
To lift myself out of poverty
And become the person God created me to be
I need to change my thinking:
Attitude 4,
I need to remember
That not everything I need or want
Comes to me immediately,
Many times I need to be patient and wait,
And work hard to achieve,
Just like everyone else.
If you are willing to give up misfortune mind-sets and adopt God's requirements for your life, you will experience the blessing of God flooding into your life and transforming you.
Prayer:
Father, forgive me for blaming someone else for my misfortune.
Forgive me for feeling that those around me owe me time or help, because of my present position.
Forgive me for lacking patience and wanting what I want right now.
Forgive me for expecting others to give me a second chance after I've messed up my life.
Forgive me for being envious of others when I think they've had more good fortune in life than I've had.
Help me to give up these mistaken beliefs,
trust YOU for all I need
and put my efforts into being a blessing to those around me,
in Jesus' name, Amen.
There's a new thought here tomorrow.
See you then, God willing!

Psalm 107:
17 Some fools turned against God and suffered for the evil they did.
18 They refused to eat anything, so they almost died.
19 In their misery they cried out to the LORD, and he saved them from their troubles.
20 God gave the command and healed them, so they were saved from dying.
21 Let them give thanks to the LORD for his love and for the miracles he does for people.
22 Let them offer sacrifices to thank him. With joy they should tell what he has done.
(New Century Bible)
