TODAY’S WORD
We all have so many opportunities to live worried, afraid, wondering what’s going to happen. Seeing so much violence, suffering, and division today, many people live with a troubled mind, a worried mind, a doubting mind, a negative mind. They’re on edge, thinking, “What if the economy goes down? What if the violence gets worse? How can I protect my family?” The enemy knows to target our mind with fear, defeat, and uncertainty. He knows if he can control your thoughts, he can control your life.
But the apostle Paul says God has given us a sound mind, a positive mind, a hopeful mind. It’s a mind that’s at peace, that knows God is in control, that He’s ordering your steps. A sound mind is focused on God’s promises, not on problems. It’s looking at how big our God is, not how big the challenge is. A sound mind isn’t discouraged about the bad break; it’s expecting God to open a new door. That’s the way God created us to live—positive, peaceful, trusting. Negativity and fear can’t stay in a mind full of hope and power.
PRAYER FOR TODAY
“Father, thank You that You have given me the power to have a sound mind that gives no place for a spirit of fear. Thank You that I can fill my mind with Your promises and the knowledge that You are in control and ordering my steps. Help me to keep the negative thoughts out and walk in peace. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
