SELF CONTROL OVER THOUGHT LIFE
Dear ones, a sound mind begins with a choice. A sound mind is a result of choosing self-restraint in what you think about. Nurturing negative thoughts is like watering seeds. Those seeds grow into sad emotions that spiral downward into black holes of oppression. You really don’t want to fall into that hole do you? Learn to take authority over negative thoughts. Many of those stray thoughts begin with the influence of demons, drawing you to revisit old wounds, painful memories, self pity and many other damaging reminiscences. Speak to those mountains of your past telling them to be removed and cast into the sea! Take those negative thoughts captive, just like prisoners. Treat those thoughts like demons and let your fighting faith rise up and take back the control over your mind, will and emotions!
Precious heart, I desire the good fruit of My Spirit to be nurtured within your life: love, joy, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, faith and self control. Always remember, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. It is My great desire for you that your giftedness not wane or fall behind in your fellowship with Me. I want you to flow with My life giving waters. I want you to be fully enriched in My gifts and for you to have a fruitful sound mind in all things.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
2 Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
2 Corinthians 10:3-6 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh: 4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds;) 5 Casting down arguments, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6 And having a readiness to punish all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
