JOYCE MEYER DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR DECEMBER 23, 2022 (CHOOSING GODLY THOUGHTS)
TOPIC: CHOOSING GODLY THOUGHTS
MESSAGE
SCRIPTURE: You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You. Isaiah 26:3 (AMPC)
If you want to live a peaceful, joy-filled, abundant life, you need to understand it all begins with the thoughts you choose to think. Your mind is connected to every feeling you have and every action you take.
A worried, anxious life begins with thoughts like this: How am I going to do everything I have to do? My life is impossible! This is more than I can handle!
But a contented, happy life begins with thoughts like this: God loves me, and He will take care of everything in my future. He will give me the strength and ability to do each thing I need to do as it comes up.
You can choose the thoughts you want to dwell on. Your mind is connected to every part of your life, so choose to focus on godly thoughts today in order to experience the life Jesus came to give you.
Prayer of the Day: Thank You, Father, for helping me think positive, godly thoughts. I am grateful that I am not a prisoner to negative thinking and that I can choose to be happy, and joy filled.
