"Whatever is True, whatever is Noble, whatever is Right, whatever is Pure,
whatever is Lovely, whatever is Admirable - if anything is Excellent or Praiseworthy- THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS!"
What kind of thoughts do you dwell on? Do you consider yourself a positive person or a negative person? Do you look for things to praise or to condemn? You control your thoughts one at a time, what is it that you think about? Have you allowed your mind to go over to the "dark side"? Our One Truth Today has a message for everyone. THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT! The Word tells us to think about things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent and praiseworthy. THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS! Whatever is virtuous, honorable, and Christ like should fill your mind.
Imagine, long before the Power of Positive Thinking was published, the Lord had all ready put down in His Word the essence of the idea! Our thoughts have a direct control on the direction of our lives. If you want to please God and live in His Word then you need to control your thoughts and thereby your actions. It is a form of worship to honor God and His Word by being a doer and not just a hearer of the scriptures. That puts the focus on the spiritual man and denies the focus of the natural man. There is "peace on earth" to men in God's will and this is one means of being in the will of God. You have free will and choose your thoughts one at a time. What you think and speak about will come alive into action in your lives. There is Power in Positive (Godly) Thinking!
Our minds can only hold one thought at a time. You are in control of your thoughts. You are responsible for your thoughts. Thoughts inevitably lead to actions. As a man thinks in his heart so is he. I think, therefore I am. Your thoughts have consequences and you are the one responsible. If you think about things that are evil, pornographic, impure, false and negative then your life will be filled with the consequences. Your choice will lead to impure, evil results and eventually to eternal death and damnation. You plant the seeds and "as you sow, so shall you reap". On the other hand, God tells us to think about whatever is noble, right, pure, lovely, praiseworthy, admirable, or excellent. These thoughts will lead to virtue and honor. Focus your heart and mind and THINK ABOUT SUCH THINGS!
