“Take Every Thought Captive”
by Dona Hake
Today I will conclude our look at the word ~all~. Yesterday I brought to you the scripture that exhorted us to cast all of our cares on Him. Why is it that sometimes we do not give Him all of our cares?
Our mind can be a playground for the enemy if we are not in charge of it. We need to recognize immediately those thoughts that come to make us entertain doubt against the Word of God. The more we exercise control over those bad thoughts that hinder our faith, the stronger we will be. I encourage you today to take each and every thought captive. Demolish those bad ones, and those wonderful good thoughts that are in accordance to His will… Hold fast to them, meditate upon them, and may they grow strong and mighty in your heart! I leave you with the Scriptures.
“and we tear down every proud idea that raises itself against the knowledge of God. We also capture every thought and make it give up and obey Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10:5 – ERV
“We are demolishing arguments and ideas, every high-and-mighty philosophy that pits itself against the knowledge of the one true God. We are taking prisoners of every thought, every emotion, and subduing them into obedience to the Anointed One.” 2 Corinthians 10:5 – The Voice
