Guard Your Thoughts
Keep vigilant watch over your heart; that’s where life starts. Proverbs 4:23 (MSG)

What you think constantly matters because it is your thoughts that shape your reality. If you don't control them, the world will control you instead. Your mind is a storehouse of information, the powerhouse for gathering of ideas, the labour room where visions are born, and the workshop where everything about your life is worked out.

Your thinking also determines your victory when faced with challenges that look more than you can naturally cope. Battles are won or lost in the realm of thoughts before they are acted out in the physical arena. No matter how equipped you are, it is the state of your mind that will determine your success. You need to think positively, creatively and triumphantly even when external circumstances appear negative. You will overcome! This is your day.

Wisdom Fountain: “You either control your mind or it controls you.”
Prayer: Father Lord, I pray for the power and strength to guard my mind. Empower me with Your Holy Spirit to take every wrong thought captive. When negative, anxious, or harmful thoughts try to enter, give me the wisdom to spot them immediately. Give me the courage to cast down anything that does not honour You. Fill my mind with Your peace, Your truth, and Your light in Jesus’ name.
