FILL YOUR MIND WITH GOD THOUGHT
Key Statement: “A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good: things and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things” Matthew 12:35
God wants to give you life through your spirit and to make you wiser than your teacher. But you cannot receive or understand what God is saying or even recognize His voice – if your spirit is not developed. His intention is to surround you with songs of deliverance in challenging times. He wants to guide you, not confuse you. That is why, you must learn to develop your spirit man. I have continue to emphasise on this point, because everything lies on your ability to develop your spirit man.
We must understand the importance of meditation, because as you think in your heart, so are you. Proverbs 23:7. It has been said rightly that, whether you think you can or think you can’t, you are right. There are many things people can do for you, but no one can eat on your behalf and ensure that your body is nourished, no one can meditate on your behalf to nourish your spirit.
There are many bad thoughts floating around in the world today. You do not need to buy a junk magazine or visit a pornography site for negative things to jump at you. Today, the things that once were been done in secret; pornography, occultism, lesbianism, homosexuality, and the like, are now being done openly. So all the more reason you need to consciously guard your heart. The bible says” Keep thy heart with all diligence: for out of it are issues of life” Proverbs 4:25. Do you want to live a good life? Then, fill your heart with good things.
Your success depends on the thoughts you have. You are either meditating positively or negatively. And you drift in the direction of your thoughts. Your thoughts gives discretion to your actions. The thoughts that go through your mind are your meditation. If you begin to think about progress and breakthroughs irrespective of your situations, you will have them. You are your thoughts. So, be careful of what you think.
When you meditate on the word of God, it will grow mightily and prevail because the word of God is spirit and it abides forever. To fill your mind with good thoughts is simply saying - fill your mind with the word of God. Only God’s word is good. It has the power to give you all you need in this world.
