I cannot write that I have figured out the secret of bad days for everyone, bad days are different all of the time, but I may have figured out something that is a core problem that causes my bad days.
Satan is sneaky, conniving and terrible. But that is not a revelation at all, but this explains how Satan turns something into a bad day. We have all had days where we are upset about something and everything else seems to go terribly and we become upset about so much more than just this one thing. See, when we are happy, we rarely find ourselves weak, and Satan usually cannot have the affect he does on us when we are weak. When something is bothering us, or we are upset over something, we become emotionally weak. This is the moment that Satan is able to weasel his way into our thoughts and start to push us down about the first thing, and move on to other areas of life that have nothing to do with the first problem. Suddenly we find ourselves thinking negatively about everything and in this terrible mood that ruins the rest of our day.
This seems more likely to happen when we dwell on something, makes sense, Satan has more time to sneak in. So a possible solution, which seems obvious yet we rarely ever go by this: Go to God FIRST. Do not wait and let yourself worry or become more upset, this only allows for Satan to get you down. God is comfort and strength and going to Him in prayer, worship or His word should be the first step, not a resort taken later when things get worse.
