SUMMARY: In the Hebrew for determined above, we can see the meaning as rough, and destruction, in the sense of an attitude that will truely consume us. Ladies, this is a trait I have taken on to try and prove my worth as a believer, proving that I can successfully accomplish any task I put my mind to and get into a fixation to prove my worth. In doing this I always find myself wrong. Have you felt this happen ladies? Actually becoming consumed in an activity, taken the thought (initially from a demon) and determined to prove I’m right.
For example; on our trip around Australia I’m the navigator, and time after time I’ve been determined to go right… but my husband says I think it’s left, but I insist strongly, even when he says again the beach is on the left, but he lets me have it and follows my direction turning right. Going down the road, we can see it’s the wrong way & we have to turn around… then I get the consequences of my actions, being angry at the “mistake” but being so consumed that I knew the way very many times. That’s not all, treating him harshly like he was a fool & not aware of directions… all because I have this determination to prove to him I’m right and in control. Does that ring a bell ladies?
Dictionary: showing the strong desire to follow a particular plan of action even if it is difficult: Determined means to be inflexible, unfaltering and unwavering. Also stubborn & aggressive in the negative sense.
There is a positive meaning to determined also if you’re led by Yahusha, hearing His voice, and that’s wonderful. How are we going to get there Ladies? We have to be aware all the time that our leading is from Yahusha and not our desires to give ourselves a boost. (Checking our thoughts.. is that Yahusha or a demon?)There is a way for us, to tap into His voice & not our own. I can see the importance here for myself. Give up all this pushing and fighting and truely trust Yahushas’ voice, He wants us to give up our lives completely! How’s that ladies? Completely. Let’s go there together & see what amazing relief & love He has for us. It’s soooo different from the pathetic silly determination games just to be right! Ladies are there things you can’t tell your husband? Thoughts that you keep inside against him? We need to trust our husbands and use those 3 rules to ourselves: Am I taking this personally? Am I letting him have it? Am I making excuses (lies)? These behaviours will put you right… I want to perfect them! Doing this will lead us into the supernatural experience of Yahuahs love. I want this! How about you ladies? Love you <3
