No More Hell In My Mind!

Use the word of God in your mouth to tell your mind what it ought to think. Your mouth has control over your mind!
1Corinthians 2:16;Isaiah 26:3;Joshua 1:8;Romans 12:2;Philippians 4:8;2:3;Proverbs 23:7;2Timothy1:7;1 Cor 13:11

Dear Friend,

The mind plays a vital role in making the abundant life Jesus paid for through His death a reality. What your mind sees and accepts as true, determines how you live your life. As a man thinks in his heart so is he. No wonder the devil spends his time and energy hunting for our minds. Given an option he will choose to blind your mind instead of your eyes. The word of God warns us to gird the loins of our minds so we do not allow our minds to fall prey to the devils accusations and tricks. To be carnally minded is death but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. You can be born again, tongue-talking ,an ardent church member or an ardent student of the word. But if you do not exercise the authority your mouth has over your thought life by speaking the word of God ,your carnal thoughts will lead you into a life of misery. You may not be able to run away from challenges but you can certainly defeat the enemy by building up resistance against him. Do not allow him to get control over your thoughts.

We all need a daily reprogramming of our minds. We have to constantly and consistently fill our minds with the word of God so that we can disregard Satan’s tricks. We have to release the thoughts we have been nurturing for years and think on God’s thoughts. And you change those thoughts by giving voice to the word of God over the carnal thoughts.

Fear and depression are two of the many destructive weapons of the devil. A born again believer should not accept any of these in their lives. The moment you receive Christ, you receive God’s power, His love and His sound mind. This means your mind is potentially anointed to be strong. It is not fragile. You mind is not supposed to give up easily. As we continue in the word of God we embrace the love He reveals to us and fear is eliminated. Living a depressed life is contrary to the word of God. God's word commands us to rejoice always. Why... He also commands us to cast all our cares upon Him because He cares for us. He never wants us to be anxious about life, but to make our requests known so we can enjoy the peace He brings and maintain our joy. The joy of the Lord is our strength. The strength that we need to withstand the devil any time he attacks. The sure way to maintain the joy of the Lord, is to resist and cast down every imagination that does not line up with the word of God .We have to continue to do what God’s word says about it, till our minds accept what the word says concerning those imaginations. The only successful way to cancel or root out those thoughts is to use your mouth to speak to your mind to line up. Your mind will always listen to what your mouth has to say.
