Who Controls Your Thoughts?

Devotional Reading Plan Day 1— from YouVersion App 


God looks at your future, while the enemy tries to keep you in your past. God says, “You can, despite what has been done!” The enemy says, “You can’t because of what you have done!” 

-God will never define you by your past issues, but the enemy will try to confine you by them. Whether it is good, bad, or ugly that dominated your life up until now, it is Satan’s goal to keep you chained there. 

Never let your yesterday keep you from your tomorrow. Learn from yesterday, but don’t live in it. Your victory comes through learning and then applying what you’ve learned. Becoming who God wants you to start with your thoughts.

Always remember that Satan’s number one strategy is to plant unhealthy thoughts in your mind, repeating them over and over until you start to think they are your thoughts. 

When did Satan tell Eve she would be like God if she ate the fruit, whose thought was that? That thought came straight from Satan himself. He’d had the same thought before, as we read in Isaiah 14:14: “I will make myself like the Highest.” It was Satan’s thought, but he planted it in Eve’s mind. 

So, be mindful of the devil. Don’t let him have free reign in your mind. 

Question for you today? Who are you going to listen to?

Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. 1 Peter 5:8 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/1pe.5.8.NLT
Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:2 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/rom.12.2.NLT 

Thanks for stopping by, may the Lord God's favor will be upon every one of us! Take care,
