REFUSE TRASHY THOUGHTS!

"Casting down IMAGINATIONS, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into CAPTIVITY every THOUGHT to the obedience of CHRIST". 2 Corinthians 10:5. My friend "Idle mind is a devil's workshop". We need to realize that the devil will attack us primarily in the realm of imaginations. The devil knows that if he can get us to think about something, we are only step away from actually doing it. He knows that our mind is the command central where we reason and it is where we remember, and dream. In another words, our minds are the hard drive, the place where everything originates. Satan knows that it is only a SHORT STEP from a THOUGHT to an ACT. REFUSE THE TRASHY THOUGHTS MAN! Can you hear a battlefield SHOUT in the passage? "CAPTURE EVERY THOUGHT", "MAKE IT GIVE UP", "OBEY CHRIST"- Can you? Look like we are soldiers and the thoughts are our enemies- right? Then PROTECT YOUR LIFE BOAT AND REFUSE ENTRANCE TO TRASHY THOUGHTS. Shut the door, seal it and tell the devil "I can hear you knocking and you aren't allowed, and GET LOST!! Praise God! JUST DO IT BUDDY!!
