I want to research a topic that has been coming up in my mind a lot lately... It's about our thought process...
Can we control what comes into our thoughts?
We can control what comes out of our mouths, I believe anyway... but can we control what comes into our thoughts?
I was thinking about this because as I was praying the other day, and everyday since this happened, I have had some horrible thoughts just jump into my head, AS I WAS PRAYING... I mean how weird is that and as I ponder this topic, I wanted to ask if anyone else has ever had that happen to them?
I began to pray against the spirit of bad words and bad thoughts, because it had to be a spiritual attack to get me sidetracked from praying...
So I ask again, can we control the thoughts that come into our mind?
I think we can.... I just pray that we recognize an attack as it happens and then pray for the Lord to send us warriors to attack in the spiritual realm...
WEIRD... isn't it... I guess you could just say I'm weird...
I just always want to know that I'm recognizing a spiritual attack and be able to stand up against it...
The bible does say that what comes out of the mouth comes from the heart (Matthew 15:18)... but if our thoughts never get to the heart, let's say they pop into our minds, then we get the chance to say, I receive this or I rebuke this, then it never gets planted into our hearts, which in turn never comes out of our mouth, then we can control our thoughts...
What do you think?
Love you!

hmmm, that really is something to think about. I too have the "crazy" thoughts pop into my head while I'm praying...or suddenly get "lost" in a thought I wasn't even thinking about. I do think it is the devil's work, trying to get us to do anything but pray. similar to when you are trying to get out the door for church, ga's, etc. and a million other things try to stop you...
