Topic: DECLUTTER YOUR MIND (Part 2)!
Memory Verse: "You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you" - Isaiah 26:3 NIV
Bible Text: Proverbs 4:23 KJV
23. Keep thy heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life.
INSPIRATION: In this age where a lot of people are having mental health crisis and meltdowns, it would be terribly insensitive not to take your mental health seriously. Know your breaking point and endurance threshold and do not allow anything tip the scale. Guard against triggers and actions of people that expose you to secondary woundings. Shut out people who debase and trample on your self esteem. Do not allow anything or anyone mess with your emotions or toy with your mind.
The mind is the seat of emotions. Once it is clogged, your ability to independently and thoroughly process your thoughts is very unlikely. Most times, what clogs our minds are junks that come to 'corrupt' it. So to get your mind back, you've got to free up some space by purging out all that pollutes and war against it, and replace all such negative thoughts with positive empowering thoughts (Phi. 4: 8). Feed and groom your mind aright!
TODAY'S TAKE HOME:
The mind is a territory that is never left fallow. You either cultivate it with the right seed or it gets cultivated with the wrong seed.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, please help me to prioritize my mental health and emotional wellbeing. I refuse to give room for my mind to be messed up. I'm empowered to guard my heart diligently and to declutter it from contamination and malfunctioning, in Jesus name.
