The Battlefield of the Mind
“But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.”
(2 Corinthians 11:3)
Today’s Morsel: Every battle of the warrior is won from within. Your ability to be an overcomer of the things which you face starts with our own self-discipline to look deep inside of you. Your attitude about what you are facing can either be your friend or your foe. Every battle is won or lost in the mind. If the enemy can get you to think that you can’t win, you will begin to think that you can’t win, and you won’t win. But on the other hand, if you think that you can be victorious and think that you will be victorious, you will oftentimes be victorious. As scripture says, “As he thinketh in his heart so is he.” There are going to be many things that you are going to face in life. Problems, circumstances, and situations that will seem insurmountable to you. But you can overcome them if you keep your head in the game. As Isaiah said, “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. Trust ye in the LORD for ever: for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength:” (Isaiah 26:3-4) Let me encourage you today, don’t allow fear to get a foothold into your mind so that you start thinking that you cannot win and be an overcomer. If you keep your mind on Jesus, you will see how easy it is to navigate through the things you face and you then will win.
Sing: When gloom and sadness whisper, “You’ve sinned no use to pray”; I look away to Jesus, and He tells me to say.
“I see a crimson stream of blood, it flows from Calvary; Its waves which reach the throne of God, are sweeping over me.”
Thought For Today: “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” (Romans 10:10)
