"As a man thinks within, so is he" Proverbs 23:7Who are you? Who do you think you are? Who told you that? Your mind is a battle zone. The thoughts that run through your mind can make or break you. Your mind is where it all starts. As it states in one of my favorite poems:
Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.
With that said, I ask you, Who is the author of your thoughts? What are your thoughts based on? Are your thoughts held accountable to any principles, wisdom or truth?
Positive thinking is good but please believe that it is not enough. Your thoughts must be based on truth. Negative thoughts are just distractions from the truth which God has given us, you just have to believe. The truth is true whether you believe it or not. If you want to live your life based on the truth and not the lies that we tell ourselves or believe the lies that are told to us by others. We must first learn what the truth is. We must replace the false trues that we've grown to believe over the years with the truth that comes from the word of God.
We must reprogram our minds and that takes time. For the next 40 days I'd like to invite you to join me in a fast. Don't worry I'm not talking about food although a few of us could use a fast from food to win the battle of unhealthiness. But this fast is something I learned about last year from an incredible Pastor by the man of Gregory Dickow. It is a 40-Day Fast from Wrong Thinking. The Fast from Wrong Thinking is a revolutionary approach to identify and conquer thought patterns, mindsets and mentalities at work to defeat you. Join the Fast with more than 100,000 people and it will help change you from the inside out built on the foundation of God’s Word. We will be starting on June 1st 2010. The thought that we're fasting from will be posted for your review and for you to implement. Post your comments, your experiences, your struggles and your thoughts (right or wrong) remembering that it's a process. Stick with us for the whole 40 days then tell us whats on your mind. God Bless and thanks for joining us.
