TOPIC: THE POWER OF THOUGHT.
SCRIPTURE: Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Proverbs 4:23
We are in a generation where many people are overwhelmed with all manner of thoughts – diverse thoughts, diverse pressures on the mind.
It is important to know that one of the most powerful weapons in life is the WEAPON OF THOUGHT. Thought can make a life; thought can also mar a life. Thought can raise a life; thought can also ruin a life. Thought can assist someone to end in eternity in heaven; and thought can assist another person to end in eternity in hellfire. Thought has brought the greatest blessing upon the world. Thought has also brought the greatest damnation on the earth. A man by the name Adolph Hitler wanted to rule the world at one time, and that led to very devastating war that engulfed the whole world.
The question is, how powerful is thought?
1. Thought determines results (Proverbs 4:23, Proverbs 23:7). The quality of thought determines the quality of results. The quality of thought affects the quality of destiny. No matter how hard a person tries, his life can never rise above his thought. Anywhere you find yourself in life is where your thought has permitted you to be. When you toy with thought, you toy with destiny. So, thought determines results; it determines destiny.
2. Thought births possibilities (Genesis 11:6, Ephesians 3:20). If we can imagine or think it, then it is possible. Only what is a possibility to the mind can be a possibility in life. Possibility is a child of mentality. No one arrives anywhere by chance; you arrive there by faith coupled with the right mentality.
So, thoughts birth possibilities.
That is why I advise you today beloved, don’t imprison your life and destiny by the wrong thought; think positively.
Examine your thought to ensure that it aligns with what God wants, and your desired expectations in life.
Renew your mind daily by reading, studying, and meditating on the Word of God.
PRAYER: Father, I ask that You give me the grace to maintain a thought-pattern that is in alignment with Your will. I have the mind of Christ; I think possibilities, not impossibilities, in Jesus’ Name.
