Get Your (Niv study bible) Mind Right

So, let me ask you something. When you look at your circumstances what do you see? Think about it now. It s important to examine your thought life. Are you too negative? If so, ask God to work on your mentality. Remember, mind transformation always precedes life transformation. . . . but be transformed by the renewing of your mind ( Romans 12:2b NIV). I know that all your circumstances may not look favorable right now. But how do you expect things to change if you consistently speak death, destruction, doom, and niv study bible gloom over your life? Stop poisoning yourself with your tongue. Stop diminishing your sense of worth. Stop stifling your creativity. Stop cursing your future. Change the way you look at things. Rather than always seeing the glass as half empty, begin seeing it as half full. Focus on the good things. Stop expecting the worst while praying for the best. I want to leave you with this encouragement today: Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things (Philippians 4:8 NIV). Your future hangs in the balance. In which direction will you swing the pendulum? Toward the negative or the positive? Only you can decide. Until next time . . . may you be empowered to prosper!
