The Battlefield of our Minds!

There is a war going on in our MIND!

As men we are constantly bombarded with temptations, choices and things that cause our flesh to be aroused. What do we do to combat this war raging on the inside of our minds?

We must first Change Our Thinking!
"Let this mind be in you which is also in Christ Jesus."
We have to think about the mission at hand, if we are married we must remember that the enemy (our own flesh desires) is always trying to lead us astray so we can't listen to it. We must be guided and directed by the spirit of God that dwells in us. Often times, when I allowed the flesh to take control, I made mistakes that cost my family and my self hurts and nearly cost me my marriage, but I thank God for giving me a wife that trust Him and that could see past all my mistakes and still stand on the promise of God for my life. Many time I lost focus and could no longer see the person that God had called me to be, but she stood by my side, still loving me and ministering to my needs as a godly woman should. When I thought she would leave me, and she had a right to because of the things I had done, she said, " in spite of what the situation looks like and the way i feel, I want my marriage and I will continue to trust God. The devil will not take my marriage!"

Men we must take a proactive approach for maintaining our Virtue and integrity! We are responsible for the choices we make and for being the leaders for our sons and role models to our daughters so that they make the right kind of Choices when they are given the opportunity to date.

The grass always looks greener on the other side, but that's a trick of the mind, over come the enemy of the flesh by keeping the word of God, the love of God and the Peace of God like frontlets before your eyes and you will win!
