WELCOME TO 20TH MARCH 2017 EDITION OF OUR DAILY MANNA CHRISTIAN DAILY DEVOTIONALS WITH BISHOP DR CHRIS

Topic:
SATAN WANTS TO FULFILL PROVERBS 23:7!

( LUKE 12:13-31).
The great Pluto said: "Thinking is the talking of the soul to itself." I once noticed a man i Lagos, Nigeria, deeply engrossed in talking to himself. Doesn't sound funny because I immediately classified him as "INSANE", even though he was moderately but neatly dressed. What he said, I don't know, but he was having a very serious discussion with himself and obviously enjoying it. Another man was once asked why he always talked to himself. He replied: "I have just two reasons. First, I like to hear a smart man talk. And secondly, I like to talk to a smart man."
Oh, what a proud man he was!e Listen child of God, in this year 2017, always mind what you say to yourself! The rich man (Vs. 17 of today's scripture) "thought within yourself." The Amplified Bible Says: "he considered and debated within himself...." He debated within himself! Wow! May you never lose the INTERNAL DEBATE BATTLES OF YOUR LIFE this year! Yes, our thoughts are INTERNAL BATTLES and they are unspoken words! As a man thinketh so is he ( Prov. 23:7). The rich man talked boastfully to himself about his riches and God named him "Mr. Fool." He lost the INTERNAL DEBATES ( BATTLES) OF HIS LIFE! The prodigal son in Luke 15:17 came to himself and decided to return to his father. HE WON THE INTERNAL DEBATES ( BATTLES) OF HIS LIFE! Your thoughts are the unspoken words, which reveal what is in your heart TO SATAN and to God!
SATAN is watching out for your thoughts because he desires to use them as his raw materials to bring Prov. 23:7 to pass! He knows that Prov 23:7 says: "AS A MAN THINKETH IN HIS HEART" SO HE IS /SHE! And he knows that God and His Word cannot lie, so He Wants to Make Sure That You Become Anything Negative You Think In 2017! He may even push you into NEGATIVE THOUGHTS due to life's challenges! Amazing!
As you go out today and daily this year, watch what you say to yourself ( your thoughts) and reject NEGATIVE, lustful, immoral, discouraging, angry, bitter, or any thought that does not fire you to great future. Speak God's Word to yourself as you cook, drive, at your waking up or going to bed, at the shop, office, school etc. Think big thoughts! Reject depression and self-pity! Scold yourself if you must, but never crucify yourself! God is working to bring you to the place of His promise! Dwell on thoughts upon the grandest, and the grandest you shall see. Fix your mind upon the highest and the highest you shall be! Amen!
