Dr. Dave speaks
from a lifetime of experience working with people around the world. He
lived outside the USA for twenty-eight years, and has a global
perspective in his writing. He has a commitment to write and
talk about things that have worked for him.
He won't tell you
what should work, or what theoretically might work. He limits
his message to only things that work in his own life. He will
not speak beyond his experience. If it works for him, there
is a high probability it can work for you as well.
Positive Expectations
Jesus created a universe in which expectations rule.
You don't get what you want in life. You get what you expect.
It doesn't matter if your expectations are positive or negative, you
will get what you expect.
Jesus came to change your expectations about what is possible.
That is why he said, " As you believe, so shall it be done unto you."
God still makes miracles happen when positive expectations rule your
heart and mind. Your faith will make you whole.
Jesus said, "Ask, and you will receive. But you must ask
expectantly. He also said, "You have not because you ask not.'
If you want to live
your dreams, positive expectations must rule your life.
Christian Positive Self-Talk
You must know
what to say when you talk to your mind, and what to say when your mind
talks to you.
Christian Positive Self-Talk tells you what you should be talking
about.
You can change who you are by changing what you say when you talk to
your mind. If you don't like what you hear when your mind talks
to you, you have the power to change the message. Start using
Christian Positive Self-Talk and push your inner voice in a positive
direction.
It's time to jump into God's ocean of love and to have a life
transforming experience. Let Christian Positive Self-Talk show
you the way.
Positive Christian Affirmations
Positive Christian Affirmations
overwhelm the inner skeptic and change the way you feel.
Your emotional mind is an eternal skeptic and must be shown the truth
many times before it will believe. If you want to influence your
emotional mind, don't argue with it. Instead, overwhelm it with
Positive Christian Affirmations.
The inner emotional skeptic isn't interested in logic. It's more
susceptible to the power of repetition than it is to the power of
reason. If you repeat anything enough times, the inner skeptic
has a change of heart, and it changes the way you feel.
Attitude of Praise
Your attitude is your way of looking at yourself and at
the world. You need to look at the world through eyes of praise.
An attitude of praise reminds you of the power and presence of God in
your life at specific times and places.
Praise is an affirmation of the power and presence of God. It's
a recognition of God's specific actions on your behalf. It
reminds you that you have a personal relationship with God, and
that when you get in agreement with Him, amazing things start to
happen.
The more you praise, the more you affirm God's presence and power.
The more you praise, the more you see God at work in your past. The
more you praise, the more you see God at work in a personal way in
your present. The more you praise, the more you trust God to
lead you into the future. The more you praise, the more faith
wells up in your heart and mind.
God honors praise by demonstrating his power when you face your
biggest challenges. Praise is a shield that goes before you.
When you praise God, your shield goes up and the battle is the Lord's.
You take up your position, stand firm, speak words of praise, and see
the deliverance of the Lord.

CHRISTIAN WEBSITES THAT PUSH
YOUR MIND IN A POSITIVE DIRECTION
|
|
Positive self-help is doing your part so that God can do his part and make
you into a new person.
Trying to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps is doing things the hard
way and is the recipe for failure and frustration.
Positive self-help is more than pulling yourself up by your own
bootstraps. It's you doing your part so that God can do His. It's
getting an entirely new way of thinking which results in a new life.
The foundation for
positive self-help is a positive self that is in agreement with God about
who you are and what you can do with your life. You are a work in
progress, and when you do your part, you can be sure that God will do
His. But first you must step up to the plate and do those things that
only you can do. Doing your part is the essence of self-help. When you
do your part, you give God something to work with. Until you do your
part, God is limited in what he can accomplish on your behalf.
Not all self-help
is created equal, and there is plenty of psychobabel in the bookstores
designed to sell books irrespective of whether you have any benefit from
reading them. Some self-help literature makes you feel better even when
you are not making any real progress. Psychobabel points you in the right
direction, but does not give you the power to make the trip.
No matter how fast
you run, if it is in the wrong direction, you will never reach your
dreams. If the main reason you are using self-help is to create and
project a new image, you are heading in the wrong direction.
You don't need a new image. You need a new way of thinking and feeling.
You need a new you.
The only way to
get a new you is to change the way you think. You must change the way you
think about who you are and what you can do with your life. Positive
self-help is about becoming a new person by changing the way you think.
You need to change the way you think about many things. When you
look at your failures, you need to change the way you think. When
you look at your limitations, you need to change the way you think.
When you look at the past, you need to change the way you think.
When you look at the present, you need to change the way you think.
When you look at the future, you need to change the way you think.
You can change anything you want in your life by changing the way you
think.
Positive Self-Image
The Bible says you are made in the image of
God. You are a reflection of God's creative love, and his image forms the
foundation for your own self-image.
God wants you to
lead an image-oriented lifestyle fashioned after his image. That saves
you the trouble of having to create, modify, and prop up an image you
manufacture for yourself. You don't need to create elaborate fairy tales
about who you are, and you don't need to bother to sell that image to the
world.
No matter how hard
you work to create your own self-image, you are destined to fail because
you are making up a fairy tale that you attempt to project to the world.
It's a show, a sham, a ploy, a game, and you know it. When you give up
your quest to create your own image, and accept the fact that you are made
in the image of God, your focus shifts from you to him. There is a family
likeness because you are made in his image. |
The most powerful and most positive force in
the universe is God's love. When God's love gets inside your heart and
mind, it changes the way you think and feel. When your mind is full
of thoughts consistent with God's love, then your mind is exactly the way
God means for it to be. When your heart is full of emotions that are
consistent with God's love, then your emotions are healthy, and they are
exactly the way God means for them to be.
If you want to grow spiritually, then you need
to learn how to Max Out On God's Love.
What does it mean to Max Out on God's Love?
1. You dare to call God
your Father.
2. You have a personal
relationship with God based on love. You fall in love with God.
3. You send your love
back to God through loving other people. You fall in love with other
people.
4. You practice God's
presence every day all day long.
5. You give up your need
to be right and switch the focus of your life to love.
6. You move in the
direction of the dream that God placed in your heart regardless of the
consequences. You act as if that dream is possible and work each day to
make it happen.
7. You use prayer to do a
reality check and align yourself with God's plan for your life.You trust
God's plan because it's good for you and perfect for the type of person
you are.
8. You open your heart
and mind to the power of God's love. His love washes the toxic waste out
of your mind and heals your damaged emotions.
9. You live congruently as a whole person
with your intellect, emotions, and will all heading in the same
direction. You become an Unstoppable, Consistently Positive, Endlessly
Persistent, Doer of Dreams.
10. You spend the rest of your life focusing
on God's love and putting good things into your mind.
This is your big opportunity to become alive
spiritually. This is your chance to become a new person with a
new way of thinking and feeling. If that's what you want, then it's
time to max out on God's love.
The Words in Red
Jesus said the words in red. When you listen to
Jesus, you learn the way God thinks. You get to look into the mind
of God.
When you get in agreement with God, you are thinking the way that God
thinks.
God is the God of the possible. Everything is possible when you
think the way God thinks.
God is the source of all good things. All that you are or have comes
directly or indirectly from Him. There are not shortages in God's kingdom
of love. Everything you need to live an abundant life is already
present and available for those who think as God thinks.
How does God think?
God thinks abundance, possibility, love, positive expectations,
forgiveness, freedom for the captives, release from oppression, recovery
of what has been lost, favor, and good news..
You can trust God. If you do your part, God will do his. When you
get in agreement with him, when you think the way that He thinks, then God
starts working miracles in your life.

Gratitude is
being thankful for and appreciating all of the good things in your life.
It isn't something that happens. It's something you do, and it's a
choice. Gratitude is active. It involves effort on your part to think
and say grateful things.
The grateful
heart is the joyful heart. Gratitude and joy travel together. When
gratitude knocks at the door of your mind, joy is always found by its
side. When one comes into your heart and mind, the other comes as well.
Being grateful fills your heart and mind with joy and makes life worth
living.
Gratitude doesn't
magically appear in the corridors of your mind. You must continually put
grateful thoughts into your mind for it to stay. Gratitude is something
that you renew each day by thinking hundreds of grateful thoughts. If you
don't do it, gratitude and joy will fade away until they are gone.
Gratitude is
important because it recognizes that your are not the source of good
things in your life. Every good thing comes from God and from other
people. God gave you your mind and body, and you should be grateful for
these gifts. Other people do thousands of things each day to make your
life better, and you have lots to be thankful for. Without other people
and God, you would be living in a jungle eating berries with the bears and
cowering in caves hiding your family from predators.
Gratitude is a
statement of trust. It isn't necessary to worry about the future. The
God who supplied your needs in the past is dependable, and He will give
you everything you need as long as you trust Him.
Gratitude puts
everything in its proper perspective and reminds you that God is the
source for your life.
The best way to develop a
positive attitude and positive gratitude is to make a list of the things
for which are grateful.
Visit
Positive Attitude Positive Gratitude
and start making your own list of things for which you are grateful.
How Would Jesus Think?
Everyone needs to learn to think the way that Jesus thinks.
Jesus is the greatest positive thinker who ever lived. He is the
original positive thinking man.
Being positive was not a struggle for Him. He was positive to the
core. He reflected and personified the most positive and most
powerful force in the universe, God's unconditional love.
Jesus understood the laws of the moral universe because he created those
laws. He knew how things work. When he tells us how to live,
he isn't just giving good advice. He is stating in clear terms the
way he made things work.
Jesus made three specific statements about the way things work in his
kingdom of love. You need to understand those statements and make
them a part of your life. If you understand and incorporate these
three principles, you will never be the same. You will become a new person
with a new life.
1. As you believe, so shall it be done unto you.
2. You have not, because you ask not.
3. Don't be afraid, just believe.

How Would Jesus Think and get a
completely new way of thinking and feeling. You have nothing to lose
but your old life.

emotions will naturally take care of themselves. The challenge you
face in depression is to change the way you think. |

Everything Is Possible - Everything in your life fits into
two columns. One column is labeled possible and the other is labeled
impossible. Your job is to think as God thinks and to move everything
over to the possible column. With God, all things are possible.
Impossible doesn't exist in God's universe, and it shouldn't exist in
yours. Impossible is not in God's vocabulary, and it shouldn't be in
yours. It's time to leave the Land of Impossibility, the Land of
Addictions, and the Land of Limitations behind and to come to the
promised land where all things are possible. It's time to get in
agreement with God. It's time to think as God thinks. |
 |
|
|
Positive Thinking Scriptures - The Bible reveals the mind and
heart of God. It tells us how God thinks and feels about you and me.
God did not keep his thoughts to himself. It was his master plan that
we should think the thoughts of God - that we should think as God
thinks. Although it might seem presumptuous to believe that humans
can actually think the thoughts of God, we must remember that God
created us in his image, and He gave us the ability to think and
feel. The Creator of the universe actually did have a plan for our
hearts and minds. He planned to fill our hearts and minds with his
love so that we can think the thoughts of God. |
 |
|
|
Positive Christian Scriptures - When God loves, He loves in a
big way. He creates people in his own image and loves them with an
everlasting love that has no preconditions. We sink or swim in his
ocean of love. Scriptures from the Bible tell us how God connects
with people like you and me. Scriptures help you understand who you
are and what you can do with God's help. They teach you to trust God
in every area. You learn to do your part so that God can do his part
and accomplish things that you could never do by yourself. You
suspend your disbelief and get out of the way so that the river of
faith can sweep away your limitations. |
 |
|
|
Attitude Of
Praise - Looking at the world through eyes of praise. Your
attitude is your way of looking at things, and it's a choice.
Attitude is a mind set. It's the way you choose to look at yourself
and the world. Jesus said, "Set your mind on God's kingdom and his
way of doing things before everything else, and all the rest will come
to you as well. Jesus made it clear that you attitude is important,
and that it is a choice. He told people to set their mind on the
right things. When they had the right attitude, God would see to it
that things work out. An attitude of praise connects you with God and
reminds you of God's work in your life. |
 |
|
|
Affirmations Of Praise - An affirmation is a positive
declaration of something you know to be true. An affirmation of
praise is a positive declaration that recognizes the power and
presence of God working in your life at specific times and places in
concrete ways. They remind you of God's work in the past, they focus
on God's work in the present, and they affirm God's power in the
future. Praise is part of your conversation with God. It's spiritual
glue that strengthens your connection with God. The more you praise,
the more you affirm God's presence and power. The more you praise,
the more faith wells up in your heart and mind. |
 |
|
|
Positive Christian Psychology is simply thinking the way God
thinks. It's the way God intends for you to think and feel. It's
getting in agreement with God. When your mind is full of thoughts
consistent with God's love, your mind is exactly the way God means for
it to be. When your heart is full of emotions consistent with his
love, your emotions are healthy, and they are exactly the way God
means for them to be. This forms the cornerstone and focus of all
Christian Psychology. When you think the way that God thinks, your
heart and mind are full of God's love. Your thoughts are positive,
and your emotions are healthy. They are exactly the way God means for
them to be. |
