Controling Our Thougths
Today's scripture
2 Corinthians 10:5
And we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
Devotion
When we have thoughts that are not in line with what God’s word says, we are to take control of that thought, arrest it, and not allow it to have an effect on our lives. Here is an example; maybe we have done something that we know we shouldn't have done. We naturally begin to feel guilty, and then moments later we have a thought “God doesn't love me because of what I have done.” That’s the thought that we have to take captive, fight back and say NO! The bible says that God loves me and is a God who forgives and forgets. It also says that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Our scripture says to make the thought become obedient to Christ. That means if it doesn't line up with what God says throw that thought far from you.
