Philippians 4:8 (NKJV) 8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy – meditate on these things.
There are so many things that can occupy our thoughts.
We can spend so much time pondering and thinking about things; some good, and some not so good.
God wants us to spend our time thinking about, meditating on and pondering on the things that are good, virtuous, and pure.
As we do this, instead of thinking about all of the negative stuff in the world, it will help change our outlook on life and our view of our own situation.
It will also help boost our faith, as we feed on God’s words and cast off the words of the enemy.
God has good things for us. He doesn’t want us to spend our time focused on things that aren’t fruitful!
Jeremiah 29:11 (NKJV) 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.
So let’s ditch the negative stuff and focus on the things and the thoughts of God and His word.
