I heard Dr. Cindy Trimm say, “One of the first things that God gives you authority over is a day. If you can’t control a day you will have difficulty controlling your destiny. If you lose control of a day, then 9 times out of 10 you will be misaligned with your destiny.”
God gives you bite-sized pieces of probation—called days. And if you have authority over that probationary period, He’ll move you into different levels of authority. He’ll expand your terrain, and your sphere of rulership.
So, I began focusing on days. Focusing on today. Only. Maximizing days.
Jesus said, “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble (Matthew 6:34). Here’s the revelation. 3 THINGS:
- Place a Mental Border Around Today
- Leave tomorrow’s concerns for tomorrow.
- If you carry tomorrow’s load into today you will exceed your mental, physical, and spiritual capacity for today. The overload will sabotage your ability to make any progress today.
- Bring All That You Possibly Have to This Day
- Don’t conserve part of you for tomorrow. You will receive a new impartation of power tomorrow. “Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning” (Lamentations 3:23 NLT).
- What if you got up early this morning and decided to focus all that you had on this day, and this day only? What if you decided to bring to this day…
- Your best focus
- Your highest energy
- Your best creativity
- Your keenest attention
- Your highest ideas
- Your highest level of faith
- Your best ingenuity
- Your best craftiness
- Your best habits
- Your best patterns
- Your best thoughts
- If You Can Do It For a Day You Can Do It For a Lifetime
- If you can do it today (for one day), then tomorrow, all you have to do is decide that you’re going to do it again (just for 1 day though).
- Then, the next morning when you get up all you have to do is decide that you’re going to do it again (just for 1 day).
- Before you know it you will have put together one of the best weeks of your life.
- If you repeat the pattern each day, before you know it you will have put together the best month of your life; the best quarter of your life; the best half year of your life; the best year of your life; the best life ever!
When you show that you can take authority over a day God will elevate you to higher levels of authority in life! Things will start to recognize your authority and obey you. Things will cooperate with your divine destiny and purpose.

Stan: I am eating up all that your blogs are saying. Not like it is the Bible, but like beginning to understand where I misplaced myself. I felt stuck, unable to find a way out of the maze, however, reading your blogs are helping to put me back on track with my Fater GOD a and I just want to say “Thank You” for allowing GOD to use you. God bless. Donna
