THERE IS A MIGHTY BATTLE going on for control of your mind.
Heaven and earth intersect in your mind; the tugs of both spheres
influence your thinking. I created you with the capacity to experience
foretastes of heaven. When you shut out the world and focus on My
Presence, you can enjoy sitting with Me in heavenly realms. This is an
incredible privilege reserved for precious ones who belong to Me and
seek My Face. Your greatest strength is your desire to spend time
communing with Me. As you concentrate on Me, My Spirit fills your
mind with Life and Peace.
The world exerts a downward pull on your thoughts. Media bombard
you with greed, lust, and cynicism. When you face these things, pray
for protection and discernment. Stay in continual communication with
Me whenever you walk through the wastelands of this world. Refuse to
worry, because this form of worldliness will weigh you down and block
awareness of My Presence. Stay alert, recognizing the battle being
waged against your mind. Look forward to an eternity of strife-free
living, reserved for you in heaven.
My heart says of you, “Seek his face!”
Your face, LORD, I will seek.
PSALM 27 : 8
The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and
peace.
ROMANS 8 : 6
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love
of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful
man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not
from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the
man who does the will of God lives forever.
1 JOHN 2 : 15 – 17
