What Is It That You Are Thinking On? Are You Bringing Your Thoughts Under The Submission of The Word of God and Acting According To The Word or Are You Allowing Your Thoughts To Go Astray and Cause You To Submit To The Wickedness In The World?

So what is on your mind today?   What is it that you are thinking about doing?   Are you thinking about how you can worship, praise, and please God or are you thinking about hanging out with the girls or kicking it with the boys tonight so that you can do those things that you “know” are not pleasing to God?   Every action begins with a thought.    What we think about and meditate on become ingrained in us and eventually we play out the actions of what we think.     

Playing out what we think is not always the best thing to do.   Our thoughts can lead us astray.   Our thoughts can cause our lives to submit to people, places, and things that are in no way pleasing to God.   There is a reason God said in His Word for us to think on the things that are just, right, and pure.   He told us to cast down imaginations and everything that exalts itself against the knowledge of who He is.    So again I ask, what’s on your mind today?   Is it something you should be casting down or is it something that is just, right, and pure?  

Take time to fill your mind with the Word and the wisdom of God.   If you never put the Word on the inside of you, you won’t have the strength or the ability to override the thoughts that go against the Word.  As a matter of fact, you won’t even know how to discern the things of God from the things of the world.

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION

Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
