I was walking around in my driveway praying the other day.
When I received this thought. Lord give me the desire to take thoughts captive
to The Obedience of Christ. We'll talk about it at group or in just casual
conversation. It seems to me that the solution to the majority of heart
issues is taking those thoughts captive. Think about that for a moment no
matter what your problem is, if you take those thoughts captive that's pretty
well going to nip any issues you have in the bud. My problem over the years has
been to not take those thoughts captive on occasion and instead just sit there and Waller in my
crap for a while or just go ahead and sin and get it over with.
I have written about this before. Stop trying to create the
absence of sin and focus on the presence of God. I believe if you stay
focused on God. You look around and you see God everywhere and in everything
that you do. Then it becomes Who You Are and maybe then you don't have to ask
God to give you a desire to take those thoughts captive it just comes naturally
Psalm 111.10 the fear of the
Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
I wonder if the other day the Lord was really saying draw
near to me and I will draw near to you?
I had another thought for my devotion this morning. I
had never looked at it this way before. But it mentioned Holy Ground. And I
remember thinking just what exactly is Holy Ground? We tend to make certain
places holier than others and rightfully so. I ask you this, if the Lord made
the Earth. Does that not make the Earth Holy Ground? If that is the case, then
everywhere we walk we are on Holy Ground, but we don't treat it that way.
If the Lord made it what does that make it?
Miracles happen, when we fix our eyes on Jesus Christ.
