Thinking Part 2

Thinking part 2
"Proneo" is the Greek translation meaning the ability to think. It also mean to direct the mind to, seek for....
........THE MIND......
The  mind is the part of man that has the ability to think. it the faculty of man's reasoning and thought. It holds the ability of imagination and recognition, and also processing feelings, emotion, resulting in action.
........THOUGHT......
thought has the ability to create,recall,process images for meaningful understanding,reason and expressions.
The mind has the ability to connect ideas in order to solve problems.
Remember we said that thinking has to do with strategizing, planning in order to solve problems. So the mind connect ideas created by thoughts, process them for expression.
Proneo which means to direct the mind to a thing. This is the ability of a person to take control of his mind and direct it to a situation.
DO I HAVE CONTROL OF MY MIND?
Sometimes circumstances makes you think that you don't have control  of your mind but that is not true because you are in control of your mind.
HOW DO I STOP WRONG THOUGHTS FROM STAYING AND HOW DO I THINK?
The mind must ponder on something whether right or wrong.
Let me give you an illustration about thoughts.
I asked  a man if he can carry an exercise book on his hands and the man replied yes. I asked him why and he said that the book is too small to give him troubles while lifting. Then I told him to lift the book for about 20 minutes, he smiled and immediately lift it but after about 13 minutes, his body started shaking. His hands were weary and tired. I asked him if I added another weight to the book, he said no.  What happened? He said because he has  carried the book for a long time.
This is the point,the wrong thought start like a good thought until it is blown out of proportion. All thought has the ability to grow. God made us in such a way that you can't think two thoughts at the same time. When you are thinking the right thoughts, you cannot be thinking the wrong thoughts at same time. The best way not to think the wrong thought is by thinking the right thoughts. Trying not to think about the wrong thought will result in you thinking the wrong thoughts.
Philippians 4:8"finally brethren,whatsoever that are true, whatever thing that honest, just, pure, lovely, good report, if there be any virtue and if there be any praise, think on these things. God bless you all......

.....THINKING IS NOT WORRY...part 1. Most often people tend to misinterprete or confuse both as though they are the same but in reality they are not. .....THINK... To think means to ponder, to go over in one's head. It means to communicate to oneself in one's mind, to find solutions to problems. It means to conceive of something or someone. ....WORRY....... It means to disturb the peace of mind, afflict with mental agitation or distress. It means to be troubled, to give way to mental anxiety. Anxiety is an unpleasant state of mental uneasiness, nervousness, apprehension and obsession or concern about some uncertain event. Thinking has to do with strategizing,planning but worry is a form thought that has been blown out of proportion resulting to mental anxiety since the imaginations formed reveal hopelessness. This is to say that thinking is focused on achieving the task ahead(Hope) but worry is a result of seeing hopelessness. Philipians 4:6" be careful for noth

MAKING DECISIONS AS A CHRISTIAN

How do I know when I am making the right decision? Prov 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your path” There are people who are of the opinion that when they feel good about a decision, it’s the right one. Feeling good about a decision has nothing to do with it being right or wrong. You can make a good decision and feel bad about it and you can make a bad decision and feel good about it. So it’s got nothing to do with how you feel. What you need is the knowledge of God’s Word and a good relationship with the Holy Spirit. When you give yourself to the Word of God and yield to the prompting of the Spirit of God, you’d always be guided in every situation to make decision that are consistent with God’s will and purpose for you. And if it requires that you talk to someone, you can discuss with your Pastor, because pastoral guidance could be of help in certain situations. A

....Success....

SUCCESS............. Many have defined succeSs as the possesion of plenty of money, or the possession of a lot of earthly belongings such as cars,house etc. It is pertinent to know that these things are only accomplishments of success and they are not success in itself. This is because, there are many who have these and more,yet without the health to health them. So success is beyond wealth. There are also those who are busy working and making a lot of money without any kind of fulfillment whatsoever; they are hardly happy and joyful. It is a case of riches with sadness or emptiness in their spirits. This is because God has designed man in such a way that no man is permitted to happy and fulfilled outside Him. There is a void in man's spirit that he would always try to fill with food,drink,clothes,travelling,sex, and all kinds of pleasure, but when he is left alone,he will get to face the stark nakedness and emptiness of his soul.There is a place in us that only God can fill, any
