Words of wisdom: I call heaven and earth to witness this day against you that I have set before you life and death, the blessings and the curses, therefore choose life, that you and your descendants may live. Deuteronomy 30:19.
Life point: Thousands of thoughts are presented to our minds every day and we must allow our minds to be renewed after the Spirit and not after the flesh. Our carnal ( worldly, fleshly) minds have had so much practice operating freely that we can think wrong thoughts without much effort at all.
On the other hand, we have to purposely choose to think the right thoughts. After we have finally decided to be likeminded with God, then we will need to choose and continue to choose the right thoughts.
When we begin to feel that the battle of the mind is just too difficult and that we are not going to make it, we must cast down that negative kind of thinking.
We must choose to think that we are going to make it and decide not to quit. When bombarded with doubts and fears, we must take a stand and say “ I will never give up! God is on my side, He loves me, and He is helping me!”
You and I will have many choices to make throughout our lives.
The Lord told His people that He had set before them life and death and urged them to choose life. Proverbs 18:21 also tells us we can choose life or death.
It says “ Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it ( for death or life).
Finally, brethren our thoughts become our words. Therefore, it is vitally important that we choose life-giving thoughts.
Prayer: Lord renew my mind with life-giving thoughts in Jesus name.
I will never give up, God is on my side 🙏🏻
