The Power of Thinking


Did you know that thoughts can actually make
you more anxious, happy, fearful, or content?
And what you spend time thinking about has the
power to affect your emotions, your actions, and
ultimately, your character? Your thoughts are
some of the most potent things about you.


Scripture has a lot to say about our thoughts
because God knows the power of our minds,
Isaiah 26:3 says that God will keep our hearts in
perfect peace if we keep our minds fixed on Him.


Can you imagine that? Perfect peace


The more time we spend focusing our thoughts
on God and His Word, the more our hearts will
be kept in peace. That is a powerful thought,
especially in a world that is constantly looking
for peace and unity.


The starting point for this peace is trusting God,

We must come to Him trusting in who He is
and having faith in what He has done for us. We
know that God is good and just.

So, if we have
faith in Him, we know that Him accepts and loves us.

And those who trust in God are
given access to Him and His presence.


Perfect peace is available to those who
consistently trust in God, and fix their thoughts
on Him.


How many of your thoughts are spent on things
relating to God?

Do you keep your mind focused
on Him when you’re feeling anxious or stressed?

What are some simple ways you can continue to
remind yourself to think about God throughout
your day?
