Epd #105 The Mind Part 3: We have an amazing ability to lie to ourselves. But we can‘t Win like that.
from Cabin Devos · host David Tubirye
We naturally feel that if we think something, it must be true because it comes from within us. But just because you think something does not make it true. As I said above, I have seen the face of mental illness. So many different suggestions can come into the mind. The world puts suggestions in our minds that are false, and we are bombarded with those false ideas all the time. And, of course, Satan makes suggestions all the time. But your problem is much deeper than Satan. Everybody has a mental illness. We are all mentally ill. The mental illness is called sin. And the Bible uses at least a dozen different phrases for the condition of our minds under sin. Our minds are: confused (Deuteronomy 28:20) anxious, closed (Job 17:3–4) evil, restless (Ecclesiastes 2:21–23) rash, deluded (Leviticus 5:4; Isaiah 32:4 NIV) The Bible talks about: a troubled mind (2 Kings 6:11) a depraved mind (1 Timothy 6:5) a sinful mind (Romans 8:7 NIV) a dull mind (2 Corinthians 3:14 NIV) a blinded mind (2 Corinthians 4:4) a corrupt mind (2 Timothy 3:8) Our Broken Minds Link Our minds are broken by sin. Which means we cannot trust even what we think, ourselves. Jeremiah 17:9 says, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?” We have an amazing ability to lie to ourselves. You do it all the time. ++++++++++++++++++ Cabin Devos happens every Monday, Wednesday and Friday LIVE here on podbean 9:00 PM East African Time.
