IT’S ALL IN YOUR HEAD

Whatever is in your thoughts can make you or break you because a person is only as good as his thoughts. Proverbs 23:7 says: “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he”. Sir Walter Scott once said, “Give me my imagination and I can be happy in a prison”. Sir Walter Raleigh was imprisoned in the Tower of London for thirteen years, but his active mind and spirit could not be chained as he authored a classic history of the world. John Bunyan was locked in a Bedford jail to stop him from preaching the gospel, but his tireless soul refused to be enchained as he penned Pilgrim’s Progress, which for centuries was the most popular book of the English language. Apostle Paul himself, while imprisoned in Rome and chafing because he could not go and preach to the churches, wrote letters which have immortalized his name and have been carrying the message of Christ to all generations since. God has given us the mind to think and he did not stop there. 1 Corinthians 2:16 says, “For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.” He has given us his mind – the mind that created the heavens, the earth, everything seen and unseen. Place your thoughts onto how powerful you are and can be. Think like God.
