Daily Devotional: February 20 – Control Your Thoughts

We have thought, O God, on Your lovingkindness, in the midst of Your temple – Psalm 48:9

Are you finding it difficult to control your thoughts? The answer is found in immersing yourself in the presence of God. It is difficult to think of horrible and nasty things in the presence of God. It is difficult for the enemy to keep you fearful and anxious in the presence of God. Spend time in God’s presence and you will find yourself thinking about the lovingkindness of God and other pleasant thoughts. How can you immerse yourself in God’s presence? You do it by focusing on God. You do it by immersing yourself in the word of God. Different from sprinkling yourself with the word of God, immersion refers to focusing and meditating of the word of God in your heart. Doing this allows both your heart and your mindset to change in a way that changes your thought patterns. Don’t try to fight your thoughts but rather you should fight for the discipline to spend time in the presence of God. When you do, your bad thoughts will take flight

  I don’t have to flight thoughts that disappear in the presence of God
