The Battle Is Between Your Ears!

If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth (Colossians 3:1-2). Spiritual battles are won or lost in the battlefield of the mind. Spiritual warfare is not out in the atmosphere somewhere. It’s between your ears! Satan knows that whatever rules your thoughts will eventually manifest in your life. Things that you meditate on get down into your

Do You Control Your Thoughts?

Satan works in the realm of thoughts and feelings. He has the ability to place thoughts in our minds. He can manipulate the senses and make us feel certain things. That’s the reason that we must walk by faith and not by sight! Satan’s first line of attack is in our thoughts. Notice 1 Peter 5:8: Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. The Greek word for sober could be translated be mentally self contr

Control What You Think About!

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy — meditate on these things (Philippians 4:8). For us to experience the best that God has for us in this life, we must take control of our thought life. Most people allow their thoughts to wander unbridled throughout the day. Though

Our Thoughts Determine The Course Of Our Life!

For as he thinks in his heart, so is he… (Proverbs 23:7). Our thoughts determine the course of our life. So we must be careful with what we allow ourselves to think about. Here’s a great question to ask. Would I want the last twenty four hours of my thoughts to manifest in my life? If not, then I need to change what I’m thinking! Jesus said in Matthew 12 that a good man manifests in his lifestyle what he thinks about, and likewise the thoughts of an evil man manifest in his l

The Power Of Meditation In The Word

Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer (Psalm 19:14). The Hebrew word for meditation here means to meditate, mutter, roar, speak, study, talk, or to utter. The Hebrew word gives reference to a murmuring sound. When we’re deep in thought we sometimes speak under our breath aloud. That’s the idea of meditating here. Take specific scripture and let them revolve over and over in your thoughts. That

Take Conscious Control Of Your Thoughts!

…bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5). A pure mind creates a pure life. The Father wants our minds to be conformed to the image of His Son just as much as He wants that for every part of our being. My mind was filled with all sorts of impurities when I first came to the Lord. Before Christ I was almost completely controlled by my mind and my emotions. After I submitted my life to Jesus and was baptized in the Holy Spirit, I oft

Change Your Thoughts To Change Your Life

So get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the word God has planted in your hearts, for it has the power to save your souls (James 1:21-NLT) The Word has the power to produce deep and lasting change in the believer. The implanted word saves the soul or renews the mind. When it comes to us changing, we will not change until our belief system changes. Let me explain. We have basically two kinds of thought; conscious thoughts, and underlying thought pa

Four Important Steps To Change The Way You Think And Live

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God (Romans 12:1-2). In the new birth our spirits are transformed from darkness to light. The nature of sin is removed and replaced by the nature and life

The Word Of God Can Change What You Think About Yourself!

So get rid of all uncleanness and the rampant outgrowth of wickedness, and in a humble (gentle, modest) spirit receive and welcome the Word which implanted and rooted [in your hearts] contains the power to save your souls (James 1:21 – Amplified) The Holy Spirit working with the Word can change elements of your personality! When I first came to Jesus, I was obsessed with inferiority, rejection, fear, phobias, and basic insecurity. As a result of many childhood traumas from fr
