2 Corinthians 10:5 says, "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ."
Bringing into captivity every thought. Wow! Every thought? Yes, I'm pretty sure it means every thought. I can see this being hard to do, but I can also see our lives having more peace and joy in it if we did. To rule over our thoughts, we have to think and apply God's truth in the way we think and live and set our minds on the character of Jesus.
Colossians 3:2 says, "Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth."
Don't let people or things on this earth keep your thoughts from being obedient to God. Claim every bible verse you know that can help you stay in obedience to His truth. Stay focused on God, bring into captivity every thought and seek things that please and honor Him. With God's help, we can do this!
Love in Christ,
Tera
