Episode 19: You Are Controlled By Whatever You Are Thinking About

(Act 5:3; Eph 5:19) Who and what you are doing today is as a result of what you think. The decision you make is as a result of what you think. The way you are relating to people around and about you is as a result of the way you think about them. The truth is - you are controlled by whatever you are always thinking about. What is always on your mind? What do you allow your mind to be filled with? A lying couple in Acts of the Apostles sold their property and both decided to give half of the proceeds to the church but would lie that they are giving the full proceeds. The Holy Spirit revealed their secret to apostle Peter and he said in Acts 5:3 “...why did you let Satan fill your heart and make you think you could lie to the Holy Spirit? You only pretended to give it all, yet you hid back part of the proceeds from the sale of your property to keep for yourselves.” Allow the Holy Spirit to control your mind, behaviour and your life In totality. As Ephesians 5:19 states “...instead be filled with the fullness of the Holy Spirit...” Allow the Spirit of God to fill you with the mind of God. Make it an habit to study the Word of God. Be intentional about meditating on the Word of God. Be committed to conscious of the presence on God in your life. Remember, you are controlled by whatever you are thinking about. Let us pray Father I thank You for this word of encouragement. Help me to always renew my mind with your Word so I can always know and do your will for my life and always make You proud. In Jesus’ name, amen
