Hey Sister,
One day, I was feeling really down, so I did a Google search on the best motivational speeches. I found a few that were great, but they were worldly. All hype, and no Jesus!
I know God had me go through this experience, so I could create the very thing I needed to hear that day. I prayed about what to say, and God blew me away with this. I’m so excited to share it with you. I pray it blesses you again and again.
Promise me you’ll listen. And share it. It’s very important that you press that play button and that you save this page. You are not alone on your fitness journey, so refer back to this as often as you need it.
I’m here for you Sister, and in case you want to read the words I wrote, here they are. I typed them through Holy Spirit-filled tears! God is so good.
The BEST MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH: Failure is NOT Your Destiny! by Kim Dolan Leto
There will be days you want to quit.
When frustration overtakes you.
And hopelessness overwhelms you.
But you were not brought into this world to be defeated.
You are a daughter of the King.
As your Fit Sister in Christ, I’m here to remind you…
Failure is not your destiny!
Say it, Failure is not my destiny
Even if you fail 100 times
You are not a failure
Pick yourself up in God’s grace again and again
Do not stop, Do not give up, Do not quit
Say it, Failure is not my destiny
Your body is going to crave junk
You will miss workouts
You will fall off track
You will stand on the scale and look in the mirror and feel defeated
Your thoughts will try to take you out
But your Spirit is stronger than your circumstances
GET UP in your Spirit
You can’t trust your feelings
You can’t quit on a bad day
Your emotions are going to try to override the Holy Spirit working in you to accomplish God’s call for you
Remember you are in the world
But not of it!
Say it, Failure is not my destiny
Don’t stay down when you blow it
Don’t let a bad choice turn into a whole weekend, get back up in grace, or that weekend will turn into a week and then a month, and then a year
Stop now, step into His grace
Remember, you can do all things through Christ, who gives you strength
When you rely on your own strength, you fail
When you rely on your own willpower, you quit
When you rely on God, you win
Say it Failure is not my destiny
Your life is being built on your choices
Choose to read the Word of God every day
Choose to believe who God says you are
Choose to work out
Choose to eat whole God-made food
Choose to drink more water
Choose to worship God
Choose to prioritize sleep
Choose to think fit thoughts, godly thoughts
Choose to keep your head and your heart and your body focused on God’s call
Choose to break the generational curses, break addiction, break dieting failure, break the chains of perfection, loose every bond of wickedness
Say it, Failure is not my destiny
Fear has no control over you.
God has not given you a spirit of fear
When you’re rejected use it to fuel your fire
When you blow it, remember Jesus died for you.
Say it, I will not back down I will not quit. I will not give up. I am a fighter
I’m an Overcomer
Say it, Failure is not my destiny
Don’t listen to thoughts that do not line up with the Word of God
The devil knows how to get you and keep you down
You can’t trust your thoughts when you are emotional
Hold your hands to your head and pray the blood of Jesus over your mind
Stand on God’s promises, fall on your knees in His presence, and you will find peace
Say it, Failure is not my destiny
Give God 1st place always
People’s opinions are not your truth
Know who you are, and whose you are, take your power back
Say it, Failure is not your destiny
Don’t quit, don’t give in, don’t give up, remember your why
Why are you doing this?
Think of your kids, think of your parents, think of your family, think of the call God put on your life
Show up, show up stronger, show up better, show up in the Holy Spirit
You are not your past
Stop settling for less
You’ve settled for less for way too long
You’ve hidden in the shadows
You’ve played small
You’ve questioned God’s call
No more!
You’re not small, you are chosen, called, and set apart
Get your head up, heart right, mind set, shoulders back, eyes up, and straighten your crown, daughter of the King, it’s go time, get after it!
Say it, Failure is not my destiny!
At all times remember change will not last without God.
Do it His way, Get Fit God’s Way, and Start now!
“But thanks be to God, who gives us victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
(1 Corinthians 15:57 NKJV)
