Good and Honest things

 

Text:Philipians4:8

Finally, brethren whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virture, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

This scripture has given us presumptions on how to handle our day.  We have the privilege to make choice of thing to tailor our minds because there are useless and useful reports to think about. There are pieces of information that should be in the trash because we are in total control of our conscience. There are exact things we can engage our minds from the multitude of stories we hear daily. Things that are characterized with purity are getting scarce if you don't surround yourself with like minds. You don't allow your mind to be overloaded and overworked with filthy things rather we should enlighten our minds to develop right. The mind should not be filled with worry, anxiety, fear etc. but should be calm, quiet, and serene.  Job 3:25 For the things are greatly feared is come upon me, and that which I was afraid is come unto me.

Friends, let’s learn to fix our hearts on the right as we meditate on lovely things. There are a lot of uncertainties we occupy our minds daily. We should instead put into practice and learn to think on the best, not the worst, beautiful and not the ugly, praise and not curse. It is an attitude you intentionally develop and consciously guide your mind.  People are fainting because of terror and apprehension about what is the next to happen. There is a lot of uproar and panic with the wind of threat.  But the good news is several issues we are afraid never come to pass.  Therefore, be absent, stay away, keep off from every appearance of evil suggestions. Let us learn to walk and receive a good report because bad reports are flying everywhere and God will help us in Jesus name.

PRAYER POINT:

1) Father, help me to check what I listen to and shield my heart to conceive good news and avoid evil report in Jesus name. 

ACTION QUOTE:  Friends, good news are picked around us, let’s disseminate the good reports.
