Do everything without grumbling or arguing
Philippians 2:14 NIV

Everything, Lord? Everything?? How do you even do that?!

The Lord has been dealing with me for a long time about complaining and how it seeps into our everyday lives. Even the little things.

It can reflect a heart filled with a lack of gratitude, immature character, or demonic activity. Either way, it opens the doorway for curses to be spoken over our lives. At the very least it can block God’s blessings.

I don’t want to block ANY of God’s blessings for my life ~ do you?!

I have found the idea of stopping ALL complaining all at once just too overwhelming and I was becoming discouraged and feeling like a failure. Start small, like not swearing when you can’t find your keys. Or not responding at all when you drop your fork. Pick ONE THING and work on getting victory in that area before moving on to the next thing.

Father, forgive us for our murmuring and complaining, and I break any curse that has come upon me or my family as a result of my complaining or the complaining of any of my family members. In Jesus’ Name, amen.

I found this video to be a real eye-opener:
