What are the thoughts in your heart today?
“But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason ye in your hearts?” Luke 5:22 (KJV)
What are the thoughts in your heart today?
Should Jesus “perceive” your heart right now?
What do you think about yourself?
How do you see yourself in life today?
Are your thoughts in line with what God has said about you, or are you importing different opinions from the various things you have exposed yourself to?
You are a product of your thoughts, and if you can have control over your thoughts, the Bible describes you as a Great person.
“He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.” Proverbs 16:32
Once again, ask yourself if Jesus could ask you openly about your thoughts, what would HE be saying to you?
“So keep your thoughts continually fixed on all that is authentic and real, honorable and admirable, beautiful and respectful, pure and holy, merciful and kind. And fasten your thoughts on every glorious work of God, praising him always.”Philippians 4:8 (TPT)
Examine the contents of your thoughts about yourself.
Speak to the challenges you face right now using the right words to guide the outcomes you desire.
“For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.” Proverbs 23:7
God says concerning you that His thoughts towards you are superb.
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Jeremiah 29:11
It’s not about what you are thinking of the other person or me.
Today’s reflection is about what you are thinking about yourself.
It’s so easy to let your thoughts loose on other people :
Those you perceive that they don’t like you.
Or you already classified them as “your enemies.”
Such ideas come about so quickly because of the nature of a man’s heart.
However, the productive thoughts that will change your destiny and empower you to fulfill your God-given destiny require discipline and focus.
Today resolve that your thoughts about yourself will be in line with God’s purpose for your life and the assignments He has given you.
