2 Corinthians 10: 5 IN as much as we refute arguments and theories and reasoning's and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we lead every thought and purpose away captives into the obedience of Christ the Messiah, the Anointed one.
Satan has declared war on God's children, and our minds are the battlefield in which the war is won or lost. Satan loves to put wrong thoughts into our minds, thoughts that are not in agreement with God's Word, hoping, we will meditate on them long enough for them to become reality in our lives. We can cast down those wrong thoughts and bring every thought captive into the obedience of Jesus Christ.
Be thankful that you can choose your own thoughts and that you are not a prisoner to whatever kinds of thoughts just fall into your mind. Think good things that agree with God's word on purpose. Think about God's love for you and the good plant He has for your life. Think about how you can be a blessing to other people and how you can be a blessing to God by simply being available for Him to work through. Thinking right thoughts will close the door to wrong ones and in the process it also closes the door to the devil.
I thank You Lord that I am Your child and I am greatly blessed. Today, I choose to think God honoring thoughts, focusing on Your goodness in my life. I am grateful that I can choose what thoughts I am going to dwell on. AMEN
