By: Phil Peacock
Series: Promise Land Living
"Hardening of the attitudes is the most deadly disease on earth." Zig Ziglar
A faithless bad attitude cost a whole generation of Israelites the opportunity to experience the blessings of the Promised Land. Numbers 14:26-35
Complaining, grumbling, pessimistic and faithless attitudes are disruptive, destructive, demoralizing and contagious.
How to keep a positive attitude:
- Confess your bad attitude to God.
- Cast your burdens upon the Lord.
- Be part of the solution rather than part of the problem.
- Learn to look on the bright side of things.
- Learn to be content with what you have.
- Learn to be thankful always.
