Are you doing this????
2 Corinthians 10:5b
5b bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,
When I read this I think....is this really possible? Yes it is but it takes work. We must be in prayer and following the Holy Spirits lead at all times. Think for a moment about all the thoughts you have in a day. I believe many of the thoughts we have come and go so fast we don't even remember many of them! God tells us here in this verse we need to capture each thought we have. That takes a major effort to grab a hold of each thought. Then we must twist and turn that thought to get it under the command of our Lord Jesus. For example....lets say you get too much change back after a purchase. The thoughts that run through your mind are keep it, or return it. This is where you have to control your thoughts and do the right thing...return it! We must do that with every area of our lives....jobs, sex, kids, hobbies, vacation, tv, music, and the list goes on and on.
So this morning are you controlling your thoughts through Christ or are your thoughts controlling you???
