BREAKING THE BONDAGE FROM FOOD! For those who want to rely on God.

[thewhitehouse]

"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied" (Matthew 5:6).I have been on this weight loss journey (besides for the past 15 years) for the last 6 weeks. I have joined two other great forums with wonderful people. I will continue to participate in them both because I have set goals there and really enjoy their knowledge, support, and like to share as much about me and my faith as possible without being pushy. But something is missing in them for me. I have given this WOE and my whole diet and exercise program to God.

Many times I have tried to lose weight one way or the other: Weight Watchers, Atkins, starving myself, Macrobiotics, and even purging. All those times, I only relied on myself.

I found Christ 3 years ago and became a new creation! My walk in the light has since become a faster pace. I am seeking the Lord and His Truth with a vengeance. Along my journey, I found out about bondage and strongholds. I didn’t fully understand them until recently. Since then, I have fully established who I am in Christ. I am a child of God. That means I have authority over Satan and these bondages will leave upon my stating it.

Does it mean I won’t struggle? No. Satan knows my weaknesses and will try to tempt me with the things of my past that always “got me”.

So here I am, wanting to share my thoughts with others who BELIEVE and RELY on the Truth. I want to grow more with God and trust Him to see me through this and giving Him the glory and Praise for my pounds shed and bondages broken.

Whether you are a believer or just want to know more about the ONE TRUE GOD and His power to release you from sin and bondage, please join me in sharing your thoughts and praises. Here we can ask for special prayer requests and support each other with keeping God in the center.

Alive in Him,
