Why the Christian Should Control Thoughts

God made us in His image and after His likeness (Gen 1.26).
Though man fell, Jesus Christ brought the Christian back to the godly status. We Christians are gods! (John 10.34-35).

As gods, it is important that we control our thinking. Gods always have what they think so they ought to think right.

Thoughts are real, and in the spirit realm they have shape. You must not take your thoughts for granted. After all, that something is not material is no proof that it is unreal.

Do you know that the thought that stays long enough in your mind will attract its material equivalent into your life? Yes it will!

Nobody ever gets a quality of life that is better than the quality of his or her thought. In fact, your life is the exact reflection of your thinking.

?As in water face answers to face, so the heart of man answers to man?. (Proverbs 27:19)

This is the reason why the Christian has to think rightly.
This is the reason why the Christian is urged in the Bible to keep the heart with diligence.

?Keep your heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.? (Proverbs 4:23)

Think like the god that you are.
You aren't a defeatist; you are more than a conqueror (Romans 8.37).
Carefully guard your heart against defeat, failure, sickness and lack.

Though Jesus Christ was God, he was also 100% man yet at critical times he did not worry. He didn't take thoughts of defeat and failure into His mind - it is unbecoming of a god.

On every occasion when there was a trouble, He was calm and unfazed. He fixed problems with his words.
Everyone speaks out what was already taken to thought. Therefore, Jesus Christ spoke out words which he had preconceived in his mind.
The words of Jesus were nobly conceived in the thought realm before he spoke them out.
He didn't have thoughts of defeat and helplessness; so his words couldn't be different.
When your thoughts are right, your words will get right too.
I urge you to take after him.

As Christians, we can all have a quality life.
We can all experience positive changes.
Remember that God has already blessed us with all things (2 Peter 1.3) the Christian needs nothing but the right thinking.

One easy way to think right is by studying the Bible regularly (Joshua 1.8). The Bible contains the mind and word of God. Meditating on it will make you think in same way as God.
