Memorize : But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Corinthians: 3:18
Devotional Reading: 2 Corinthians 3:15-18
Yesterday we discussed the power of positive thinking, today, by the grace of God, we shall look at the impact of the mind. Whatever we become in life is a product and impact of what you think.Your mind is the battle ground for the conflicts of life. Whatever your mind cannot picture, it can’t capture. In taking picture, you must first see the object before you can capture it. Object that is not clearly seen cannot be clearly captured. Picture is imagination it connote sight and the ground is the mind. My question for you is what can you see? Some people only see negative things in their mind, they will most likely experience those negatives, while some people see progress and solutions in their mind, they too will most likely experience those positive things they see in their mind
God told Abraham for as far as your eye can see, I have given you. What gives birth to the successes you see around is an impact of imagination in someone’s mind. God cannot stop your imagination from becoming manifestation if you are locked in your decision. When you imagine success, and you are locked to it in your belief, it will manifest. If you can’t stop a man from thinking success, you won’t be able to stop him from speaking, acting and eventually enjoying success. Everything a man will ever become is a product of what is on his mind. “…for out of the abundance of the heart the mount speaketh” Matthew. 12:34
Similarly, when a man keeps thinking sickness, he will eventually become sick. There is a way that imagination becomes manifestation, so, you must be careful what you allow to settle on your mind. I met some people some years back, they were of the opinion that the reason they were backward was because they were from a certain colour, it is sad to know that so many believers still think that way today. They forgot that God answers to thoughts, the same way He answers our prayers. Ephesians: 3:20 says “Now unto Him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us”. If you want to enjoy unlimited favour as our theme this year 2022, then begin to imagine it.
God told Abram all the land, wealth, cattle which thou see, will I give to thee” which means if Abram didn’t see anything God cannot do anything. It is a choice given to mankind to choose between good and bad. So if you can’t see it God cannot do it. Joseph saw the throne and he got it. Some singles have already seen themselves struggling to have their spouse; some young students have already seen themselves jobless after graduation. Some parent have already seen their children joining cultism and bad gangs when they get to school. There are many, however, who have been lifted and exalted by their positive mind and imagination; while many others have been ruined by the impact of their negative imaginations.There is power and great impact of the mind.
I pray for you today, that God’s word will illuminate and extinct every negative thought in your mind in the name of Jesus.
The devil knows how powerful imaginations can be, so he infuses devilish mind set into people. Imaginations such as philosophies of men, negative doctor’s reports, or things people say, that is contrary to the knowledge of God. You must locate them and cast them down by putting on the whole armour of God. May the Lord empower you with divine strength to guard your mind in Jesus name.
Prayer point: My father and my God, impact my mind to think positive until I receive all my miracles in Jesus name.
Key Dose: The battle of life is won and lost in the mind. Be strengthened in your mind.
