Musing: It was just one thought

6/26/2020

I asked the Lord what do you want me to write about and then I heard “it was just one thought.”

He showed me the destiny of all mankind was altered because of just one thought. Think of it? The coarse of all mankind was changed because Adam and Eve didn’t take the thought that Satan gave them captive. 

Satan said to them - it was such a simple thought
  • Genesis 3:1 “Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”

Eve was able to quote what God had said to them but unable to live it
  • Genesis 3:2 “And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden; 3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.’ ”

I think it’s easier to quote a bible verse than to actually live it out.

God made very clear his expectation and direction to Adam and Eve. They just had to refuse the thought Satan gave them. They didn’t. 

Unfortunately we are like Adam and Eve we get thoughts all the time that are in direct contradiction to what we know isn’t within the will of our Father. Paul gives us the key to what we should do when we get thoughts and feelings that oppose God’s word. 
  • 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ”

Paul says that we have a spiritual weapons that can defeat Satan’s lies, misinformation and we can take every thought that barrages us on a daily basis captive. Our Father wouldn’t have said that we can take every thought captive if it wasn’t possible.

Imagine all the thoughts that we have had that has created so many problems and difficulties. Oh my, what a mess. 

In seeing this and writing this I feel challenged to make a greater effort to capture every thought and emotion. Because what we think is what live out. Our destinies can be shaped by just one thought.
  • Proverbs 23:7 (NKJV) “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.”
  • (TPT)  “For as he thinks within himself, so is he.”

It was just one thought…
