USING THE MIND AND IMAGINATION FOR POSTIVE TRANSFORMATION (PART 3 OF 4)

3rd NOVEMBER 2019

Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen” –   Ephesians 3:20-21

The power which is at work in us is the Christ spirit. The scripture says the Christ in you is the hope of glory. The Christ spirit in us works through our spirit and the mind is connected to our spirit. Therefore, the mind is the environment where all spiritual or supernatural phenomenon takes place in you. You must be on your guard and ensure that your mind is not infiltrated by poisonous or toxic thoughts. It is interesting to note that the devil is not more powerful than you are. The devil gets hold of our lives when we allow him to build his STRONGHOLD in us. Take note that the stronghold of the devil is NOT HANGING IN THE SPACE, BUT IN US. The stronghold of the devil is built on FEAR, anger, jealousy, envy, greed, unforgiveness, hatred, wickedness and the likes of them. A negative mindset is an invitation to the devil to come to dwell with us. The devil feeds on lies, anger, jealousy, hatred, fear, envy, and all other negative tendencies. The presence of these negative tendencies in our mind is an invitation to the devil to come dwell with us. All the negative elements stated above do not necessarily have to exist together, only one of them is enough to create room for the devil to operate through us! Unfortunately, those whose mind is inhabited by the devil would constantly attract negative conditions as well. Such persons cannot experience a meaningful success or positive transformation. For instance, some people are afraid of witches and wizards and also believe that some negative powers are at work in their life. if you have any reason to feel that someone has done something to harm you, the first thing to do is to FORGIVE and extend LOVE to such a person! This is the point at which we sometimes miss our healing or victory over negative conditions. DO NOT become angry at the so-called witch or wicked fellow hates him/her and even begins to curse him/her and wish him/her dead. That is wrong and does not solve any problem! Rather, it escalates the situation and denies you access to Jesus, the one who gives healing and protection! Jesus says, love, forgive your enemies and those who hate or persecute you! Beloved, love, and forgiveness grant you access to Jesus Christ, the one who gives a life of abundance! The one who opens the door to healing and breakthrough is Jesus. Another clear example is that you may just be afraid generally, without necessarily having anyone in mind. That is also a problem. This is because fear breaks down your spiritual immunity. The devil is happy when we are afraid of adverse conditions. What you fear most have the tendency to happen someday! BEWARE! In order to positively transform your life, start by removing from your mind all kinds of negative thoughts such as hatred and unforgiveness, including fears, and you shall overcome the devil instantly. Feed positive thoughts into your mind and invite the holy spirit to come dominate your mind. By so doing, you will gradually dislodge the stronghold of the devil from your life! It is only when the devil is far away from us that we can experience any positive transformation. In appreciation of this mysterious power in us, Paul is telling us today that God is able to do much more than we think or Ask. Praise God!

PRAYERS          

Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I ask that you take hold of my mind so I may bring forth healthy imagination. From this day onward, I declare that every of my positive thoughts shall manifest more than I have imagined. AMEN.
