Which Train are YOU On?

What you spend your time thinking on has a direct effect on your life.

Prov 23:7
"For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he" -KJV

Our concept of reality is shaped by our thought life. Billions of dollars is spent each year on counseling, medication, training groups, teaching materials, to try to get our moods, feelings and/or behavior back on course.

Over nearly 20 years of ministry I can attest that most of the time beneath the behavior or emotions, lies the greater need…a PATTERN OF THINKING THAT NEEDS CHANGED!

Picture a TRAIN. Our thinking is the Engine, which pulls the car of emotions, which connects to the car of behavior which ends with the caboose of consequences.

Wrong Thinking > negative emotions > unwise behavior > devastating consequences

Right Thinking > positive emotions > wise behavior > fruitful consequences

Where ever your thought life leads, your emotions and behavior will follow! DO NOT underestimate the power of your thought life. Choose wisely which train you will get on!

God invites us to a life of higher thinking! God invites us to a life of RADICAL TRANSFORMATION through the power of His Spirit and His Word RENEWING our mind (Rom 12:1-2).

A renewed mind comes by filling it with Great Thoughts!

Phil 4:6-9
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - if anything is excellent or praiseworthy - think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me - put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. NIV

A spiritually trained mind will TRANSFORM our emotions and behavior in line with God's will and desire for our life. Are you struggling with your emotions or behavior??? Take a look at your thought life. What is your mental diet??? Which train are you on???

Trade in your train ticket. Exit off Wrong Thinking and HOP ON BOARD Right Thinking. The destination is life-changing!
