Our thoughts, feelings, words, and actions must compliment each other for everything to come together and stay balanced. When one or more of these four are negative, there will be a constant barrage of difficulties no matter how many positive mantras you recite. They are all interconnected. Balance is the key.
It is no different as a believer. If there are feelings of underlying anger as you recite words from the Bible, the message is conflicted and comes across as judgemental and hypocritical punishment. God is fair and just. He’s not hypocritical. This is where Satan, who is hypocritical, gains entry into the innermost parts to corrupt, lie, deceive, and destroy. Do not give the enemy the chance to steal your positive peace.
Many times, if we just take a step back, silence the mind, and shut down the distractions, God will reveal areas of imbalance. Our minds hold the thoughts of our hearts where feelings blossom. In the stillness of the silence, the Holy Spirit enables you to cast out Satan from your thoughts, feelings, words, and actions if you ask for it, in Jesus name.
It is in the asking where you learn to recognize the whole you God created within. You will find that the positive resides where Satan can not infiltrate because you’ve learned to recognize his games. How? By converations with God, prayers as mantras, studying the Holy Word for reinforcement, and by asking for Holy Enlightenment.
In God’s presence—in an intimate relationship with Him—is the source of every good, righteous, and positive attitude and act. Psalm 16:11
