CHANGE YOUR THOUGHTS, AND CHANGE YOUR LIFE
"You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!"
Isa 26:3 NLT
CHANGE YOUR THOUGHTS, CHANGE YOUR LIFE
Your thoughts create your feelings, and your feelings dictate your approach to life. So by changing the way you think, you can change how you feel and how you approach life. Unlike the world, which teaches you to empty your mind to achieve peace, God's way is to fill your mind with fresh, powerful, redeeming thoughts. "You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you!" It's not just about trying to blot out bad thoughts with your willpower. If a wrong bad or a negative thought is lodged in your mind today and you can't seem to shake it, stop trying! That won't erase it from your mind. That's like cutting a root off at ground level rather than uprooting it; it will just grow again. What you need to do is replace that wrong destructive thought with a thought that's from God. That's the only way to deal with wrong thoughts and begin the healing process. The apostle Paul writes: "Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise...Then the God of peace will be with you" (Php 4:8-9 NLT). Are you concerned about your health? Fix" your mind on this Scripture: "He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sickness" (Mt 8:17 NKJV). Are you concerned about the future? Fix" your mind on this promise: "And the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you; He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not fear nor be dismayed" (Dt 31:8 NKJV).
