Take Charge of Our Thoughts: We need to make sure that the thoughts are in line with Christ.

2 Corinthians 10:5 (KJV)

Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

We need to make sure that the thoughts are in line with, and obedient to Christ. If the thought is NOT obeying what is alined with the Word of God, and your spirit being, then it is false and should be discarded immediately. The devils battle ground is in our minds. In other words, if one gets tricked buy a false thought and that thought takes root, they can miss their destiny. What we think about, or even a quick thought that comes when you are trying to meditate, pray, and relax that can be false. How would you know if the thought is false, you may ask? If that thought is contrary to the Word of God (the Bible) than it is false. We need to put a filter on our thoughts and take it very seriously what we think about. Remember, not every thought we think comes from us it could come from really anything. For Example, you can hear somthing on the news and a thought can just generate. It is not just you, it is the brain, and other factors that generate thoughts as well. There has been scientific studies to show that the brain generates thoughts on its own. That being said we should not feel guilty when a bad thought comes, rather discard it immediately knowing it was a factor not us per-say, However, if we let a thought take root, then it could become an action. For example, one could think, "I have to do the laundry" then they take root to that thought and do the laundry. I hope this brief paragraph and verses has encouraged you. The Bible tells us to guard our minds the most! Gard our minds! God Bless! - G.S
