Grab the Thought

"For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. But seek His kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well. "Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom""- Luke 12:30-32 (NIV).

What are you thinking about today? I'm reading a book, Gods At War, by Kyle Idleman. Most of us would deny having created any foreign altars in our lives. We serve the only True God, but Kyle points out that the very things you worry about, desire, stress over, dream about, make plans for, hunger for...in other words, whatsoever your most predominant thoughts, are self-generated altars erected to gods that war for your soul. We are to take these thoughts captive and make them obedient to Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5), thinking on anything that is worthy of praise (Philippians 4:8). Grab that thought and this...the kingdom is already yours.
