Winning The War In Your Mind PT.1
Philippians 4:8 (ESV) – Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Most of life’s battles are won or lost in your mind.
2 Corinthians 10:3-4 – For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. 4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.
The enemy shapes your thinking—One thought at time—Prison of lies.
2 Corinthians 10:5 – 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.
Our lives are always moving in the direction of our strongest thoughts.

The life we have is a reflection of the thoughts we think.
