3 Ways To Navigate Family Drama During The Holidays
You love your family, but you don't love the drama that often comes from getting together with your family!
We understand.
It's easy to fall back into old habits when you step into a hotbed of templates and triggers. Remember, you don't have to face the holidays by yourself. You have the Prince of Peace at your side and your tribe at your back.
You're not the same person you were before. You're walking in as His mighty NextGen warrior. You've got an arsenal of tools to bring to the table.
You got this! You don’t need to just navigate family drama. Here are 3 tips to ROCK this Christmas season no matter the circumstances.
1. Get direction from the Lord about the part He wants you to play.
You're not just visiting family because it's Christmas. God has a plan for you.
Does your family need joy? Is there something God wants you to pray through for them? How does He want to love your family through you? Seek God for His wisdom.
God is bringing Jesus to them through you over the holidays.
2. Prepare the ground with spiritual warfare.
God equipped you with an arsenal of spiritual weapons to use.
Get your warrior on and use your authority to give Jesus license over the gathering. Bind the work of the enemy and slam any open doors shut. Speak His peace over the event.
Prepare the ground for Jesus to be the most important guest at your get-togethers.
3. TREAT everyone.
Build relationships and favor by bringing NextGen culture to your family!
When you're Timely in your communication, show Respect to everyone around you, make a deliberate effort to Esteem others, show Appreciation and speak with good Tone, people around you will feel loved and cared for.
People's hearts will open. Jesus will have a chance to speak through you.
