KEEPING OUR MINDS AND THOUGHTS PREPARED

” THINK ABOUT THE THINGS OF HEAVEN, NOT THE THINGS OF THE EARTH. ” COLOSSIANS 3:2

We must continue each day to keep our heads in the game. The game of life is very complex. We live in a world of sin and disobedience but we are spiritual beings trying to fight a spiritual war. Our lives become divided because of who we are. We become confused because of the way the devil attacks us. He wants us to believe this world and all that is going on in it. He wants us to believe all of the evil and keep our minds on all earthly things. If we do we will see no future, no success and no joy. If the devil can keep us focused on the things of this world then we will not have our thoughts with our Lord and the things going on in the spiritual world. We will be fighting against the wrong things. We will constantly be casting blame on others instead of casting blame where it needs to be cast, on the devil and his army. We are not fighting against our brothers and sisters of this world. We are not fighting against all other humans of this world. Our fight is happening in the spirit world. It is happening in a world that we cannot see as humans. Our only hope to have better lives as Chrisitians is to surround ourselves with the love of Christ. We must pray constantly, meditate upon his holy word and praise our Lord God in heaven for all things. As humans in this world we are defeated but as spiritual beings in God we are victorius in all things. Continue to focus on God and what he wants you to do. How do you know what he wants you to do? Pray to him and ask. Then, step back and meditate in his word. Listen carefully to the Holy Spirit and do as he guides. We are all victorious in Christ! PRAISE THE lORD IN ALL THINGS!
