Control Your Mind

“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”2 Corinthians 10:5

 

One of my favorite shows on the History Channel is called ‘Alone’ where ten wilderness experts are dropped off in remote locations ‘alone’ such as The Artic, Vancouver Island, or Patagonia  with just basic necessities,10 of their choosing, to see which one stays longest and wins 500,000 dollars. Loneliness is a major factor for ‘tapping out’ on their satellite phone more so sometimes than fear of bear attacks, hunger, or a medical emergency. 

When you are alone with your thoughts it is hard. If nothing else fills up the space your mind can go crazy. Right now if you are dealing with something in your life trying to let the Holy Spirit be the doorkeeper Satan will poke at you trying to get you imagining horrible things or trying to get you to step in and take control. Wrong choice by the way. 

You are in a battle between good and evil God and the devil. You need to pray daily to let God convict others and be still while you wait for breakthrough, it is not easy. 

PRAYER:Help me Lord to trust you and put my phone down and wait. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
