1. WHERE THE MIND GO
ES, THE MAN WILL FOLLOW!
Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts.
Proverbs 4:23 (GNT)
2. WHAT YOU THINK, IS WHO YOU ARE!
For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
Proverbs 23:7 (NKJV)
Watch your THOUGHTS
Before they become WORDS.
Watch your WORDS
Before they become ACTIONS.
Watch your ACTIONS
Before they become HABITS.
Watch your HABITS
Before they become your CHARACTER.
Watch your CHARACTER
Before it becomes your DESTINY.
When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
James 1:13-15 (NIV)
For who has known the mind and purposes of the Lord, so as to instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ [to be guided by His thoughts and purposes].
1 Corinthians 2:16 (AMP)
3. BE STRONG IN THE LORD AND IN HIS MIGHTY POWER! WIN THE BATTLEFIELD OF YOUR MIND WITH YOUR HELMET AND SWORD!
Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.
Ephesians 6:17 (NLT)
Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Philippians 4:8 (NLT)
