1 Corinthians 11:1,"Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ."
Every time you meditate repeatedly on a similar thought you are impacting your life. By continually replaying that thought it is actively changing your brain and body chemistry in either a positive or negative way. For the true spirit-filled believer bringing every thought, all 30.000 to 70.000 a day into captivity under the obedience of Christ takes some practice, faith and some work. (2 Corinthians 10: 5) Why allow just any thought to wander about in your mind? That is rather dangerous, as we read in James 2:18," Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works." Staying in faith means staying in the Word of God so the Word of God stays in you.
Seems if we must work daily then let us work for the Lord Jesus/Yeshua and do as He instructs us so we shall be blessed by meditating on whatever is true, pure, lovely, of good report and praise worthy (Philippians 4:8) Because your brain is going to convert all these thoughts into a reaction that is going to release healing molecules and produce health in your mind and body as a result as you do. The Lord even tells us in Proverbs 17:22," A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones."
Keeping a happy heart is good medicine and if fact better then medicine because a cheerful mind works supernatural healing in your body. Trusting the Lord Jesus/Yeshua for everything and every detail of your life causes your your kidneys to release a substance called DHEA which carries the emotion of joy and your heart releases a substance called ANF which carries the emotion of peace – which is bringing healing spiritually, emotionally and physically to you.
Many thoughts may seem harmless at first, but in this fallen world often subtle harmless thoughts can becomes poisonous, as we might observe from seeing how the devil tricked Eve in the garden to question if God really says what He means, and means what He said! All thoughts we entertain can become spiritually, emotionally and physically dangerous if we do not capture each one to the obedience of Christ! Best to ask for every thought you entertain to produce a valid passport before you allow just any thought to come wandering about in your mind for any extended period of time. Because no one, no spirit, no thought can stand before the Lord Jesus/Yeshua who is all knowing and all powerful and get away with lying in front of Him! Trust me on that!
When you continually listen to those poisonous thoughts which often come as feelings of dread and fear, of anxiety, and self-hatred, self-condemnation, rejection, self-rejection, self-pity, anger, rage, un-forgiveness, bitterness, envy and jealousy all the way to listening to spirits of murder with your tongue against others and yourself, how do you think your body reacts?
It is proven in the Holy Word of God and through medical and scientific research now that your body is secreting chemicals and hormones in response to those spiritual attacks that are counterproductive to your health and steal your supernatural peace the Lord Jesus/Yeshua wants you to have. (John 14:27)
Your body can only respond to what your spirit and mind is telling it and your brain is converting all those thoughts into a physical reactions and creating physical real-estate in your brain that is leading you to prosper in health or to experience the development of various diseases in your body. The Lord clearly tells us we must take care of our thought life. Proverbs 25:28," He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls."
Which means anything can come and go as it pleases and make a tremendous mess anywhere it wants because you won't keep your supernatural armour on and stand guard to protect your spirit, soul, mind and body as you are commanded to do. Yes it is true God is in ultimate control, but he gave you free will so He will not control your thought life, you must do that part and the Lord shall do the rest!
Fight back overcomers, trust Papa God for every detail and stay in faith! Because "All", things are possible with God! I pray the Lord's supernatural peace, healing, provision and protection cover you always with oceans of agape love in the almighty name of Jesus/Yeshua!

Jeannine Willis Hess Love, love, love this. This is TRUTH. About half way through "What was I thinking" now. That book is just packed with so much, I can't race through it as I ususally do. It is a book meant to be thought about, practiced and truly digested, not merely something to while away the time.
Reading "What Was I Thinking?" Get your thoughts working for you not against you. By Pastor Caspar McCloud This is getting very interesting, and really does make me think about my thoughts. I wish everyone could read this book and think about their thoughts. HUMMM, maybe the abundance of our hearts would be more about loving each other..... I know I am being transformed more and more into the image of God because I have changed my mind on stinkin thinkin. Thanks Caspar! I am loving this book.
