“For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he…”
Proverbs 23:7(KJV)
As you begin this New Year, it is important for me to let you know that God will never be able to do for you beyond what your mind can conceive. So it is very important that you think right because right thinking leads to right believing.
Your beliefs are products of your thoughts and your thoughts are products of words. The Bible tells us in Proverbs 23:7, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he…” In other words, by your thinking, you're deciding the direction of your life.
Right now, where you are, is a product of the kind of thoughts that you think. Where you are and the way your life is a reflection of your thoughts. It is so important that we understand that our real issue is not the devil because he has been defeated according to Colossians 2:14, Hebrews 2:14.
This is why the Bible says to us in Romans 12:2, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind …” So the change you desire must begin in your thoughts. God spoke to me and said, “Permanent change is impossible in any man's life until you change his thoughts.” This is because your mind set decides from the outset the outcome of your life.
PRAYER
Dear Father, I ask that as I submit my heart and my mind to the influence of your word to me today and throughout this year, may your living word produce in my life what it talks about in Jesus Name. Amen.
For further study read:
Proverbs 4:20-23.
DOING THE WORD
As you begin this year, ask the Lord to teach you to number your days, that you may apply your heart unto wisdom. Psalm 90:12.
