2 Corinthians 10:5 Casting down imaginations and every proud thing that raises itself against the knowledge of God. We capture every thought and make it give up and obey Christ.
Our thoughts have to be controlled every day. That’s why we must put the Word in our hearts and renew our minds to it. Our thoughts affect our mood, our attitude and will determine our actions.
Our thoughts show up in our body language, our tone of voice and what we say. Our mood and attitude won’t change until our thoughts change. Don’t be absorbed with the circumstances right in front of you.
The best way to stop a bad thought pattern is to start speaking the Word and praising the Lord. In Colossians it says, “Keep your mind on heavenly things.” In Philippians it says, “Think about things that are true, honest, right, clean and pure, things that are lovely, and things that are good to talk about. Think about all you can praise God for and be glad about.”
Before long your attitude, your mood, your tone of voice and what you say will agree with the Word and circumstances and situations will change.
