Proverbs 23:7 (KJV)For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:…
There are many people that have been attending church for years upon years and yet their lives have only changed in the manner that they know God and may have gotten saved. But their personal lives have not changed. They still go through the same struggles year after year. One of the most undiscovered places on the earth is the human mind. We have to tap into the wisdom of God in able to learn how to use it the way He intended.
My question to you is how are you thinking? Has your thought patterns concerning your life since you came to Lord changed, or not? When we attend church it’s not so that we can be entertained, and it’s not to be looked at as a traditional thing. When we gather together and fellowship with other saints in God, it’s so we can learn something, so we can increase in our spirits and in turn increase also in our natural lives. So how are you thinking, what is in your heart concerning your own situation?
Many people have a poor thinking process about themselves, they think that they're a failure, they're ugly, they're stupid, they're poor, they can never live a happy life, and some of these thoughts have been programmed into their subconscious at a very young age; more than likely as a result of bad and abusive relationships when they were younger. They have gotten use to this thinking pattern and it has become instilled in the heart, so they don’t even think that it’s a problem.
But God wants the best for all of His children; God wants you to live a prosperous life, full of all good things and thoughts. If you think negative thoughts, than expect to see a negative manifestation. If you are living in an area that is horrible, and you tell yourself that you will never be able to move into an area you desire, than you better hunker down, because you won’t be if you don’t think you can.
The law of sowing and reaping works both for negative and positive things. God only wants it to work for you in a positive way, but if you keep planting negative seeds in your mind, than your harvest will be negative. It’s time to stop using Gods Word as a book to fill in our bookcases, and start using it to change our thinking patterns to produce positive results in our lives.
Romans 12:2 (KJV)
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Some of you may say, how am I supposed to think positive thoughts when my situation is so bad?
Act 26:2 (KJV)
I think myself happy, king Agrippa….
This scripture is concerning Paul. He was on trial literally for his life. He could have had thought bad thoughts and been down and out, which would have made his situation that much more miserable; but instead he is saying even though this may seem like a bad situation, I will none the less think positive.
Whatever it is you are going through, I want to encourage you to start to think thoughts of increase, start to think thoughts about that situation not being a problem any longer, and from this day forward only think positive thoughts no matter how a situation may look. It’s time to stop thinking like everybody else in the world, you’re a child of the Most High God, only think thoughts that He would approve of.
I pray this has been a blessing on your life.
