Thought for the day

"You are not on your own here. God is not just teaching you. God is imparting to you more of Himself. You are apprehending the mind of God as God reveals Himself to you.


You are becoming wiser, because God planned it to be this way.


God knew that towards the end of this era in time, you and I would be in the midst of a great battle for our minds and the minds of our children. God wants you and I to be at peace despite our current circumstances.

• God-thinking creates an atmosphere in your mind that can be at peace, even while you are in this battle. God-thinking is about taking every advantage to consciously invite the presence of God in the things you do.
• God-thinking seeks to utilize whatever spiritual component you need to meet your goals - dreams - desires or tasks in life.
• God-thinking puts the things of God - the power of God - the authority of God - the Spirit of God - the Word of God - God Himself "on top" in your mind.

"On top" refers to: the most prevailing thoughts that you have and how you can re-stack your thoughts, to place life changing, powerful principles "on top" of your mind, and redistribute the lesser things, ultimately, so that what you think, will be of more benefit to yourselve and to those around you.  These prevailing thoughts determine the emotional content and behavioral outcome; your reactions to each event of the day. These reactions are controlled by what's "on top" at the predominating moment.
