Sunday Rhapsody Of Realities - Think Excellent Thought

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life (Proverbs 4:23).

To “keep thy heart” means to mount guard over your heart, refusing to let just any thought come in. In Matthew 9:2-4, Jesus asked some religious scholars, “...Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?” That shows you’re responsible for the thoughts that come into your heart. So, watch and mount guard over your heart.

It matters how and what you think. Several factors are responsible for the wrong mind-sets that many people have. Sometimes, it could be their upbringing or the environment in which they grew up. Many today are programmed negatively to think fear, falsehood, and deception, because of the unwholesome influence from their environments. Romans 12:2 says, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind....” The recreation of your spirit is God’s work, but the renewal of your mind is your responsibility. He gave you His Word to think upon and live by so you can have a glorious life.

There’s a transformation, a metamorphosis that occurs through the renewal of your mind. Change your way of thinking. Think excellent thoughts. A man is deemed excellent by the excellence of his thinking. Build and work on that! Have an excellent mind. Think high thoughts from God’s perspective always!

PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for your Word and the transformation, and metamorphosis it brings to me. As I meditate on your Word, I’m catapulted into the realms of divine prosperity, increase, promotions and success. I’m renewed, refreshed and positioned for the glorious life, in Jesus’ Name Amen.

FURTHER STUDY: Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
