Taking Control Of Your Thoughts

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12:2 In the J. B. Phillips Translation of the Bible, this verse says, "Don't let the world around you squeeze you into its own mold, but let God re-make you so that your whole attitude of mind is changed. Thus you will prove in practice that the will of God is good, acceptable to him and perfect." To be transformed is "to be changed or altered in the way you live by the renewing of your mind." The way you are living right now is a product of what is inside of your mind. You are living out what has been programmed between your ears! You can demonstrate the perfect will of God if you align your thinking with His Word. Proverbs 23:7 says, "For as he thinks in his heart, so is he."
