Guard your thoughts with truth!<\/p>\n
There is a fierce war going on in the invisible spiritual world. One of the fiercest battlefields of this war is in our thoughts.<\/p>\n
The Bible says that the devil \u201cput an intention to betray and sell Jesus\u201d into Judas Iscariot’s heart. It was the Devil, not Judas, who was the source of this betrayal. \u201cThen Satan stood against Israel and incited David to number Israel\u201d (1 Chronicles 21:1) It was Satan who gave David the idea of \u200b\u200b’counting the number of my army’. When Jesus said that He would die on the cross, Peter said, «Lord! This shall never happen to you.» At that time, the Lord saw the source of the thought and Jesus rebuked Satan by saying, \u201cGet behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.\u201d(Matthew 16:23). The same goes for Ananias and Sapphira. They thought it was their idea to lie about the amount of the offering. However, Peter saw through the power of the Holy Spirit and rebuked them, saying, \u201cAnanias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?\u201d (Acts 5:3). As such, Satan whispers to us through his thoughts and wants us to be tempted, sin, and eventually destroyed.<\/p>\n
Therefore, we must discern the source of our thoughts. We must be able to discern whether our thoughts are from our flesh, whether they come from the devil, or whether they are from the Holy Spirit. The Bible says, \u201cfor God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.\u201d (2 Timothy 1:7). That’s right. Fear does not come from God. Feelings of inferiority, guilt, discouragement, negative thoughts, criticism and condemnation do not come from God. Rather, the heart that God gives is one of power and love and a spirit of self-control.\u201dThere is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.\u201d (1 John 4:18). )<\/p>\n
Therefore, we must set a watchman before our thoughts. Every military garrison has them. We too need to put watchmen at the doors of our thoughts to check that every thought and every imagination is trustworthy. If an unsuitable thought enters our mind, we must expel it. Setting boundaries in our thoughts is part of our spiritual warfare. Martin Luther said, «A bird may sit on your head, but you must not make it a nest.»<\/p>\n
Cast out evil thoughts in Jesus name. Please resist the thoughts that the devil gives you. Oppose the thoughts the devil gives you with the Word of God. Hold onto the thoughts of the Holy Spirit that lead to life and peace (Romans 8:6). The weapon that can overcome the lies of the devil is the word of truth from God. Therefore, training to meditate on the Word of truth is very important in order to keep our thoughts and win the spiritual warfare. Let the Word of God, the truth of God, constantly abide in your heart. When we meditate on the Word every morning and meditate on the Word while working or walking, dark thoughts will not affect us.<\/p>\n
\u201cKeep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.\u201d (Proverbs 4:23). Above all, I hope that you will guard your hearts and thoughts with the truth of God’s Word. I love you and bless you. Pastor Daniel.<\/p>\n

Guard your thoughts with truth! There is a fierce war going on in the invisible spiritual world. One of the fiercest battlefields of this war is in our thoughts. The Bible says that the devil \u201cput an intention to betray and sell Jesus\u201d into Judas Iscariot’s heart. It was the Devil, not Judas, who was the source of this betrayal. \u201cThen Satan stood against Israel and incited David to number Israel\u201d (1 Chronicles 21:1) It was Satan who gave David the idea of \u200b\u200b’counting the number of my army’. When Jesus said that He would die on the cross, Peter said, «Lord! This shall never happen to you.» At that time, the Lord saw the source of the thought and Jesus rebuked Satan by saying, \u201cGet behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.\u201d(Matthew 16:23). The same goes for Ananias and Sapphira. They thought it was their idea to lie about the amount of the offering. However, Peter saw through the power of the Holy Spirit and rebuked them, saying, \u201cAnanias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?\u201d (Acts 5:3). As such, Satan whispers to us through his thoughts and wants us to be tempted, sin, and eventually destroyed. Therefore, we must discern the source of our thoughts. We must be able to discern whether our thoughts are from our flesh, whether they come from the devil, or whether they are from the Holy Spirit. The Bible says, \u201cfor God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.\u201d (2 Timothy 1:7). That’s right. Fear does not come from God. Feelings of inferiority, guilt, discouragement, negative thoughts, criticism and condemnation do not come from God. Rather, the heart that God gives is one of power and love and a spirit of self-control.\u201dThere is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.\u201d (1 John 4:18). ) Therefore, we must set a watchman before our thoughts. Every military garrison has them. We too need to put watchmen at the doors of our thoughts to check that every thought and every imagination is trustworthy. If an unsuitable thought enters our mind, we must expel it. Setting boundaries in our thoughts is part of our spiritual warfare. Martin Luther said, «A bird may sit on your head, but you must not make it a nest.» Cast out evil thoughts in Jesus name. Please resist the thoughts that the devil gives you. Oppose the thoughts the devil gives you with the Word of God. Hold onto the thoughts of the Holy Spirit that lead to life and peace (Romans 8:6). The weapon that can overcome the lies of the devil is the word of truth from God. Therefore, training to meditate on the Word of truth is very important in order to keep our thoughts and win the spiritual warfare. Let the Word of God, the truth of God, constantly abide in your heart. When we meditate on the Word every morning and meditate on the Word while working or walking, dark thoughts will not affect us. \u201cKeep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.\u201d (Proverbs 4:23). Above all, I hope that you will guard your hearts and thoughts with the truth of God’s Word. I love you and bless you.
