Day 3: Changing Your Agreement
Reading: 2 Corinthians 5:17, Romans 12:2
Devotional: Your thoughts create your reality. When you say "I'll always struggle with this" or "that's just who I am," you're making an agreement with bondage. The resurrection doesn't make you a better slave—it makes you a new creation. Old things have passed away; all things have become new. Today, change your agreement. When temptation whispers, "You can't help it," declare, "I might be tempted, but I'm not owned by this." Rip off the dead labels—addict, failure, unlovable, anxious—and replace them with God's truth: loved, chosen, righteous, new creation, heir. Your freedom requires renewing your mind daily. What you agree with in your thoughts, you'll eventually live out in your actions.
