You have heard it said, "It’s all in your head." Well, it is true. Every battle is first fought in the mind.

Satan is not trying to take over our minds, he is trying to maintain control over what he once had (Colossians1:21).

Therefore, we must be wise

"lest Satan should take advantage of us; for we are not ignorant of his devices." (2 Corinthians 2:11)

We need a renewing of our minds;

"And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." (Romans 12:2)

Think on that a while and then let’s focus our minds on the things above.
