In today\u2019s lesson I want to explore the power of words and the impact on our thinking as we process them.\u00a0 We will also explore the difference between being reactive versus being responsive to outside stimulus\u2019s that affect our thinking.\u00a0 I believe with turning the channel of our thoughts from negative back to positive the airways of our mind will only pick up and play pleasant and harmonious music.\u00a0 In other words, it\u2019s important to filter out the negative noise either by words or actions of others or situations in order to maintain peace.\u00a0 Simply said, dive under water and create a barrier that words and actions of others can\u2019t reach you.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>In Psychology.com researchers found hearing words that describe pain &#8212; such as &#8220;excruciating&#8221; or &#8220;grueling&#8221; &#8212; activated the areas of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.webmd.com\/brain\/ss\/slideshow-concussions-brain-injuries\">brain<\/a> that process the corresponding sensation.<\/p><p>&#8220;These findings show that words alone are capable of activating our pain matrix,&#8221; says researcher Thomas Weiss, a professor at the Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, in Germany, in a news release.\u00a0 Negative comments and phrases tend to adhere more than positive words or phrases.\u00a0 That is why it\u2019s important that we watch what we say.\u00a0 For example, our experience on the dock sent visual and verbal cues that were negative regardless of how much we enjoyed cruising down the river. It was as if someone reached into our minds and switched channels.\u00a0 The visual and verbal expression of the women after her phone was submerged shot at us like a venomous viper.\u00a0 Her words though not directed at us, or her friend still caused discomfort.\u00a0 These phrases hit us like a sledgehammer: \u201cI can\u2019t believe this.\u201d \u201cHow could I let this happen?\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s just my luck.\u201d\u00a0 In the moment we became reactive rather than responsive.\u00a0 According to organize.nl, a blog dedicated to writing about how to problem solve in organizations; it states, \u201cBoth a reaction and a response are triggered because of an outside change, a change of the environment, both are secondary causes. The returning action of both reaction and response is quick or readily made.\u201d\u00a0 The difference is that responding uses is intelligence as well as sympathetic actions, as compared to reactions that are automatic in nature without volition.\u00a0 In other words, we have positive thoughts ready to draw from like shooting darts at the target that result from being responsive rather than reactive which aimlessly shoots as we react without considering the cost.\u00a0 The power is in your choice.\u00a0 Another way of looking at it is whatever thoughts, positive or negative you bank that is what you will withdraw in times of crisis.\u00a0 <strong>\u201c<\/strong>The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds\u201d (2 Corinthians 10:4 NIV).\u00a0 Simply put living constantly in the spirit by meditating on God\u2019s word prepares your mind for battle.<\/p><p>In this setting we wrestled between reaction and responsive.\u00a0 We quickly scanned to see if we could see the phone, but the water was too dark.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It was like waving a wand and seeing it disappear.\u00a0\u00a0 Her friend dove in repeatedly, felt around the bottom with his hands, and still nothing.\u00a0 We tried calling it but it went straight to voicemail.\u00a0\u00a0 It\u2019s in times of crisis when our true selves are revealed.\u00a0 Do you find yourself speaking death to negative situations that occur?\u00a0 When tragedy strikes do explicit words fire out as darts or negative comments burst like a dam.\u00a0 Well, my friend you might be reactive!\u00a0 Jake and I followed suit being reactive, as the balloon of joy and tranquility popped to frustration and anxiety.\u00a0 It felt like a wave that manhandles us, knocking our swimming trunks off and leaving us exposed.\u00a0 Jake and I held our heads low like two little boys who just dropped their favorite ice scream.\u00a0<\/p><p>As we began to fasten the kayaks on the trailer, I felt the Holy Spirit challenging me that I was allowing the iPhone to dissipate my peace.\u00a0 In other words, we were ruled by a circumstance, and it was now time to overrule it.\u00a0 I felt like Clark Kent coming out of the phone-booth as I had enough of my own negative thoughts allowing the enemy to toy with my emotions.\u00a0 I began to own the principles of Philippians 4:8, \u201cFinally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable\u2014if anything is excellent or praiseworthy\u2014think about such things\u201d (NIV). Today let\u2019s tighten up our trunks.\u00a0 It\u2019s important that you think again about what you say because it has adverse effects for you and those all around you.\u00a0\u00a0 Scripture teaches, \u201cLet no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear (Ephesians 4:29 NIV).\u00a0 We seem to believe that speaking negative or venting in extreme manners can change the situation, yet it does the opposite.\u00a0\u00a0 The word of God clearly instructs us to utilize words that builds us and others up for the sole purpose of providing grace to the listener.\u00a0 Our words are like a conductor of an orchestra which guide others to either play in harmony or be out of tune.\u00a0\u00a0 To be responsive comes with preparation and when we take captive negative thoughts and meditate on thoughts that are positive there isn\u2019t a wave that can knock us down.<\/p><p>When you understand the signs of reactivity, you can combat them.\u00a0 For example, questioning and probing as if someone were on trial is also a form of reactivity.\u00a0 Have you ever encountered someone that loved placing salt in a wound after you made a mistake?\u00a0 Judging and misdirected words never invoke healing.\u00a0 \u201cI tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned\u201d (Matthew 12:36-37 NIV).\u00a0 It\u2019s important that in the presence of negativity we learn to respond by redirecting the conversation to a positive light.\u00a0\u00a0 A simple technique to utilize is to redirect with questions that provide positive thoughts.\u00a0 For example, I began to ask my friend Jake what did he enjoy about today?\u00a0 What were some blessings about our trip together?\u00a0 I stated I am blessed to know we are going home to two amazing wives, right?\u00a0 I could see Jakes spirit begin to lift.\u00a0 You have the power to paddle in a different direction.\u00a0 Don\u2019t allow negative currents to pull you into the storm of regret and frustration.\u00a0 When you ask the right question to yourself, you will get the right response.\u00a0 Our thoughts can quickly shift from a negative thought to a positive by simply providing a question for yourself.\u00a0 For example:\u00a0 What do I have that brings me joy?\u00a0 What are the best qualities of my spouse or friend I am with?\u00a0 I encourage you to create at least four go to question and practice them every morning in the shower to have them ready for back up.\u00a0<\/p><p>Another example of reactivity can be found In the Old Testament.\u00a0 We find 12 men representing each tribe of Israel to spy and bring back a positive report from the land of Canaan that they would conquer and become their new home.\u00a0 God gave the promise that the land would flow with milk and honey and the choice was upon them to deliver this truth back to the people.\u00a0 Two spies chose to be responsive while ten were reactive.\u00a0 Let\u2019s do the math, 16 percent were responsive delivering a favorable report, and approximately 83 percent would be reactive which would cost them dearly as well as their families.\u00a0 Let\u2019s call this the 1:4 ratio which I will illustrate like a seesaw.\u00a0 If negativity and positivity were weights, negativity will tend to dominate every time unless you get off and stop playing.\u00a0 You can\u2019t wrestle with negative thoughts because they will always win.\u00a0 You can only choose to walk away and play with other similar positive, then you will enjoy your experience.\u00a0 Questions that redirect your thoughts to be positive is like a surfer catching a new wave to take him further.<\/p><p>Let\u2019s explore the scene to illustrate what resulted as the people reacted to the spies approaching the camp.\u00a0 You will notice which dominates at the playground in Israel, negative or positive.\u00a0 The sun began to set in the background of the desert as the shadows of the men approached the people. Israel waited in anticipation as God\u2019s promise would be reinforced, so they thought.\u00a0 Overwhelmed by what they heard; feelings of joy quickly moved to intimidation that would now grip them; as their spirits broke into mourning.\u00a0 Ten of the spies reported, \u201cWe went to the land where you sent us. It really is a land flowing with milk and honey. Here\u2019s some of its fruit. But the people who live there are strong, and the cities have walls and are very large. We even saw the descendants of Anak there. The Amalekites live in the Negev. The Hittites, Jebusites, and Amorites live in the mountain region. And the Canaanites live along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea and all along the Jordan River\u201d (Numbers 13: 27-29 NIV).\u00a0 Have you felt surrounded by all sides like being in a pontoon boat ready to be plundered in a sea of darkness.\u00a0 Here is my question, who is bringing you the report?\u00a0 Are you listening to reactive people or your negative inner voice?\u00a0 The trend of the 86 percent negatively follows today and has not changed which we find in the news, social media and negative messages that bombard us.\u00a0 The past reinforces that, just as quickly as the day began for the people filled with joy, the report arrived to the people that demoralized them.\u00a0 This was their nightly new, Attention <strong>31\u00a0<\/strong>&#8230;\u201cWe can\u2019t attack those people! They\u2019re too strong for us! The land we explored is one that devours those who live there. All the people we saw there are very tall. <strong>33\u00a0<\/strong>We saw Nephilim there. (The descendants of Anak are Nephilim.) We felt as small as grasshoppers, and that\u2019s how we must have looked to them.\u201d\u00a0 Now compare that message with today\u2019s messages.\u00a0 Has anything really changed?\u00a0 What is the news you hear?\u00a0<\/p><ul><li>Your problems are way to strong and overwhelming.<\/li><li>I don\u2019t have the resources to make it and I am afraid to move either job or location. I am stuck!<\/li><li>Those around me are better and I am small as a grasshopper.<\/li><li>Everyone must think of me in small ways.<\/li><\/ul><p>Do any of these statements sound familiar?\u00a0 Is the report you filter positive or negative? Today please realize you have the power to change from the 86 percent negative report to the 16 percent responsive report.\u00a0 These are just examples of what God says about you:<\/p><ul><li>\u201cBecause you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you, I give men in return for you, peoples in exchange for your life\u201d. (Isaiah 43:4 ESV)<\/li><li>\u201cBut when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that being justified by his grace we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life\u201d(Titus 3:4-7ESV).<\/li><li>\u201cFor we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them\u201d (Ephesians 2:10ESV)<\/li><\/ul><p>Today I want to reaffirm that you are loved, and God has amazing plans for you.\u00a0 Remind yourself by being in the 16 percent with questions that will redirect negative thoughts to positive.<\/p><p>In the Book of Numbers, we found men of valor who rose to be the 16 percent.\u00a0 They went against all odds because they knew in whom they believed and the promises that were given to them.\u00a0 Joshua and Caleb were responsive in nature as they refused to accept the negative reports.\u00a0 In verse 30, Caleb told the people to be quiet and listen to Moses. Caleb said, \u201cLet\u2019s go now and take possession of the land. We should be more than able to conquer it.\u201d\u00a0 Today don\u2019t receive the negative reports of, \u201cyou will never be healed!\u00a0 You will never amount to nothing! You will never be married! You will never be happy! Depression and anxiety will never leave!\u00a0 You will never escape your addiction! \u201cThose are the \u201cnever\u201d lies of reactive thinkers and need to be cast back into the abyss of the ocean where it belongs.\u00a0 Joshua and Calebs responsive thinking brought life to their tribe. Today fight through the noise of your mind and go against the enemy of darkness lies and fight for your tribe.\u00a0 Bring back the report to your people of who God\u2019s says you early are and the problems you face are mere grasshoppers to God.\u00a0<\/p><p>As we close out today, take hold of the report of the Lord of the great plans he has for you.\u00a0 Believe that there is so much in store for you and your breakthrough is so close.\u00a0 Grasp your victory and observe your problems are microscopic as compared to your blessings.\u00a0 Listen as Joshua, Moses and Caleb speak to the people in a responsive way to press on.<strong> \u00a0<\/strong>Take hold of those words for you and declare them over your life.\u00a0 <strong>\u201c<\/strong>Immediately, Moses and Aaron bowed with their faces touching the ground in front of the whole community of Israel assembled there. At the same time, two of those who had explored the land, Joshua (son of Nun) and Caleb (son of Jephunneh), tore their clothes in despair. They said to the whole community of Israel, \u201cThe land we explored is very good. If the Lord is pleased with us, he will bring us into this land and give it to us. This is a land flowing with milk and honey! Don\u2019t rebel against the Lord, and don\u2019t be afraid of the people of the land. We will devour them like bread. They have no protection, and the Lord is with us. So don\u2019t be afraid of them\u201d (Numbers 14: 5-9 NIV).\u00a0 It\u2019s your time to rise from the wet sands and pounding surf to swim against all odds.\u00a0 Sixteen percent is favorable when God is on your side.<\/p><p>Today use the power of words to speak into your life.\u00a0 Become responsive as difficult situation can become grasshoppers in your midst by asking life building and gratitude type questions.\u00a0\u00a0 Don\u2019t allow reactive people or self-defeating statement keep you in the squelched burning sand.\u00a0 Play a new song in the campfire of life turning the channel of your thoughts from negative back to positive.\u00a0 Be the conductor you were meant to be by creating harmony for the world, and when all else fails submerge yourself under water and tune the world out!\u00a0 By the way do you remember the iPhone that was submerged under water?\u00a0 Right before we pulled off, the gentleman called us over and with great elation the iphone was found between the surface of the floor pinned to the kayak.\u00a0 The most amazing part of it all, is that the phone worked when they turned it on.<\/p><p>Dive Deep:<\/p><ul><li>What are some examples when you have been reactive?<\/li><li>List three responsive statements you could give to a negative situations or to reactive people.<\/li><li>Create 4 questions that you could ask yourself while taking a shower to prepare for the day.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During a trip Kayaking with my friend Jake Roche, we noticed a couple struggling to set their kayak in the water.\u00a0 As we pulled into [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1370","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-lessons-from-the-ocean","category-self-development"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 -
