Protecting your thoughts

In this episode we continue our discussion on the topic of standing by talking about the helmet of hope of salvation, the expectation of Gods goodness to rescue, redeem, and secure our shalom. The conversation continues with the multitude of fears prevalent today, being aware of what we allow in, converting our thinking taking captive those thoughts that aren’t producing peace or hope. The discussion moves to intentionally setting your mind on things above, consciously aware of thinking on Jesus as our hope. We then discuss the mind of Christ, being thinking about things that are; true, honest, just, pure, lovely, good, virtuous, and praiseworthy, while being aware that HS infuses this into our natural minds. We should practice exchanging our worry thoughts and interchange them for thinking positively with the mind of Christ focused on heavenly things while looking on others, situations, and circumstances with the eyes and thoughts of Jesus.
