STINKING THINKING!

“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”

2 Corinthians 10:5 NIV

Get rid of the thought; let it go; cast it down and push it out. You’re thinking about doing something, but you know you shouldn’t. You’re thinking that you can’t move forward, but you know that’s a lie. You’re thinking that you can’t be healed, but you know God is able. You’re thinking the task it too hard; the road is too long and the help is too little, but you know that God will equip you; guide you and strengthen you. You’re thinking of how you can pay someone back, but you know that you must forgive. You’re thinking that your mountain is too high; the storm is too rough and the giant is too tough, but you know that nothing is impossible for God. Get rid of your stinking thinking, and hold on to your faith.

If your thoughts don’t line up with the Word of God, you must let them go. If your thoughts are making your faith weak, you must let them go. The Word tells us to cast down those thoughts and imaginations that set themselves up against the knowledge of God…then we are to take our thoughts captive and cause them to be obedient to Christ Jesus (the Word of God). So when your thoughts say you can’t, stand on the Word that says you can. When your thoughts tell you to quit, stand on the Word that says ‘press forward.’ Make your thoughts and God’s Words line up and agree. Get rid of your stinking thinking, and hold on to your faith.

Believe what God says, even when you can see it. Believe what God says, even when people tell you otherwise. Believe what God says, even when you don’t feel like it. Believe what God says, even when you’re hurting and the pain seems unbearable. Believe what God says, because God’s Word is true and His Word will not return to Him void; but it will accomplish that which pleases Him, and prosper in that which He sent it.

(Isaiah 55:11)

If you think you can’t, you won’t; if you think you’re defeated, then you can’t win; if you think you’ve done all you can, you won’t do anymore…..”for as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:…” (Proverbs 23:7)

Get rid of your stinking thinking so that you won’t be defeated and discouraged. Believe what God says and you will be victorious and triumphant!!
