The Power of Choice




We have a choice to eat, to work or to do whatever we want to do. Sometimes we face troubles in our lives and we may have the choice to be happy about it or to be sad. We can choose how we want to be, but the "determination" to be what we want to be is up to us. Certainly the choice to be happy is the best way to go, however sometimes internally the doubts, worries, or complaints within our hearts is present. Ultimately the power of choice within us is the deciding factor. The power of choice to be a saint or to be a sinner, to be sad or happy is again up to us.



How do we cast away the troubling thoughts, even though we have the power of choice to be happy together with Christ Jesus?

  1. We have to know / study the Word of God.
  2. Seek Him First in everything and everything else will be added to you :)
  3. Spend time with God just like you're spending time on something you like to do
  4. We have the power to make choices, make choices to cast all thoughts that are not good AND replace them with positive thoughts
  5. Focus on Positive thoughts

Prayer:

Ask God to remove the strongholds of destruction in our mind. The enemy has no more authority over our mind and thoughts. Our mind will be set on things above where Christ is seated.



Col 1:1-2

1Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. 2Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
