Guard Your Mind

"I will set no base or wicked thing before my eyes" (Psalm 101:3 AMP).

In this Psalm, David was determined to honor the Lord with his mind.

David knew that what he watched with his eyes would affect his

thinking. If he didn't guard his mind by choosing carefully what

he looked at, he would be drawn to do things that weren't

pleasing to the Lord. The same is true for us today. If we are

Watching things on TV or reading things in books or magazines that

aren't pleasing to the Lord, we are opening a door to the enemy.

If we continue to look upon things that aren't pleasing to the

Lord, a stronghold is built in our thinking. We become enslaved to

those thoughts. But thank God for the blood of Jesus that has the

power to break those strongholds! If you are struggling with thoughts

that you don't want in your mind anymore, today, you can be

free. First of all, receive the Lord's forgiveness and make the

choice to change what you are looking at. Let the Lord wash you clean

and strengthen you by His Spirit. Focus your mind and thoughts on His

Word and do not let any wicked thing before your eyes. As you

determine to watch what you watch, you will be empowered by His Spirit

and walk in the abundant life God has in store for you!

Father, today I choose to honor You with my mind. I choose to

guard my eyes and not watch anything that isn't pleasing to You.

I ask that You set me free of every stronghold in my thinking so that

I can live in peace and joy all the days of my life. In Jesus'

Name. Amen.
