THE BATTLE FIELD

 

2 Corinthians 4:4(In whom the gods of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine upon them).

Life is a battle and most of this battle takes place in our mind. Our mind is a treasure. It is a valuable asset both to us and God. Treasures attract all manner of things. The battle between darkness and light takes place in our mind. What darkness does is to try to use us against ourselves. We need to pay attention to what we feed our mind with because it will definitely manifest. A great man or woman has already become great in their mind before manifesting it openly. What your mind cannot conceive you cannot become. Both evil and good are first conceived and nurtured in the mind before it manifests in the open.  King David told his son Solomon that he has already had in mind to build a house for God (2 Chronicles 22:7). In other words whatever attitude a man is displaying is just giving birth to what he has already conceived in his mind. What eyes are to us is what mind is. Satan has blinded the mind of them who believe not. (2 Corinthians 4:4) He did not blind their eyes, he blind their mind because it is more valuable to him. If he captures the mind of any man he has already had his entire life. Someone may be looking at one particular spot; you will be surprised to find out that he does not even notice his surroundings because his mind is somewhere else. In this battle whoever you give your heart to get control of your mind. It is a contention between light and darkness. We are going to be held accountable at the end of our journey here on earth and that will determine where we are going to spend eternity. If God takes total control of your heart you will be sure to spend eternity with him in heaven and if Satan gets total control you will spend eternity with him in hell. He knows the entrance of the word brings light and when light enters it will dislodge his darkness. So he will try very hard to keep his captive away from accessing the light.  The choice is for you and me to decide. (1Kings 3:9) King Solomon asked God for an understanding heart to discern between good and evil. Ephesian 1:17(That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: 18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in saint).if your mind is lighted, you will know why you are here on earth and you will understand what God has for you. Satan does not want you to be free and also to manifest your destiny. That’s why he is after our mind to block it from accessing light. Understanding of any subject gives you dominion over it. As soon as light enters, your victory is sure. King Solomon became very wealthy because God gave him wisdom and understanding. Jesus Christ died so that we can have access to our inheritance that was stolen in the Garden of Eden. Revelation 5:12(Saying with a loud voice Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom and strength, and honour, and glory and blessing). To access all of the above you need light and Jesus Christ is the light. He gave them that received him power to become what they are destined to be (John 1:12). And this power is what delivers people from the blind folding power of Satan.  Invite him into your life today and be set free in Jesus name.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and savior. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
