You will eventually become a product of what you believe. All great athletes, presidents, pastors and corporate CEOs arrived where they are because they believed they could before anyone else believed in them.

Here are six things you must believe about yourself:

1. I have been given power over the devil (1 John 4:4).
   
2. I have been given power over every circumstance in my life (Mark 11:23).
   
3. I have a strong body that has been healed by the stripes taken on Jesus' back (Matt 8:17).
   
4. I have the ability to control my mind and cast out evil thoughts (2 Cor. 10:4-5).
   
5. I am poised for success and will not accept any defeat as final (1 Cor. 15:57).
   
6. I hate sin but love all people and have favor everywhere I go (Prov. 12:2).
