STEPPING STONE #7
KNOW YOUR MIND
Welcome back to
THE PATH
Psalms 27:14
Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and He shall
strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD. |
CHRISTIAN THERAPY FOR TEENS CURE FREE TEEN THERAPY WITH TEENAGE THERAPY ACTIVITIES
Good things come to
those who wait.
I trust that you're waiting at the end of each step for the next day
to continue on.
It's a great thing you're doing!
Good day my friend! I’m happy to join you again here
on THE PATH. Today we’ve got a lot of ground to (un)cover. What I mean
is, I’ll be showing you another very important, very effective way of
clearing out weeds in your garden, and how to manage those stubborn
ones that want to keep coming back.
YOU ARE THE TEMPLE OF GOD
At the last STEPPING STONE, I shared a
scripture with you that the Apostle Paul wrote. He said that you are
the Temple of God. You’re about to find out EXACTLY what that means
and then you will be able to use your new knowledge and understanding to help you
deal with your problem(s) ...
Ready
to go on a lil adventure with me?
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
What? know ye not that
your body is the Temple of the Holy Ghost
which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your
body, and in your spirit, which are God's. |
God used to reveal His presence in a tabernacle and
the Temple.
This is a general diagram of the Temple of God.
THERE ARE THREE DISTINCT LEVELS TO THE TEMPLE OF
GOD.
BOTH THE PHYSICAL STRUCTURE THAT WAS BUILT
AND
YOU
BEING THE TEMPLE OF GOD.
Okay, now, I want you to think of this in terms of
your home. Outside of your home, there is ... The rest of the world. That would
be like outside the actual building in the courtyard of the Temple,
where all God’s people were allowed and all people of the world are
allowed to wander into your world.
Then, (Looking back at the diagram) the Holy Place
is where the
priests ministered. That would be like inside your home where only
those you invite in are allowed. You don’t let strangers wander in,
but family and friends are welcome there.
Then there is the Most Holy
Place, which is called the Holy of Holies, where the presence of God
was, and generally speaking, nobody was allowed in there except for
God's chosen people. That would be like your diary or hope chest. It’s
private and sacred to you . . . It’s where you have all your secrets
stored. It’s a sanctuary to you. It’s a sacred place where you invite
the presence of God, and commune with Him.
CHRISTIAN THERAPY FOR TEENS HEALING FREE TEEN THERAPY WITH TEENAGE THERAPY RESOURCES
Let’s take this principle one step further focusing
on the TRUTH ...
YOU
are the Temple of God.
Your Body (Flesh) is what everyone sees. Your Mind (Soul) is only
shared with those that you CHOOSE to share it with by sharing
thoughts. Things from the outside world are allowed into your Mind
(Soul) through sight, sound, smell, touch, taste and thought but YOU
get to determine WHAT you allow within or believe.
Then the Holy of
Holies is your emotions which spring forth from your heart (spirit). This is the place that you want kept
sacred. This is the secret place. You MUST beware letting outside
influences to ever affect your Spirit. You must control what thoughts you
allow within your secret place. Failure to do so can have someone
using you like a puppet. You know the old cliché ... "Don't push my
buttons."
THIS is the reason you feel as you do when there is
a problem. You have allowed something or someone to place thoughts in
your mind (Soul) which you (At the time) accepted as TRUTH or at least
the way things were and your emotions
(spirit) reacted. You have allowed this thought to grieve your spirit
and what you are experiencing is the result.
REMEMBER ...
In order to control your thoughts as we are taught to do,
by renewing our minds daily.
Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this
world: but be ye transformed
by the renewing of your mind,
that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and
perfect, will of God. |
2 Corinthians 4:16
For which cause we faint not;
but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed
day by day. |
You must only let TRUTH to abide within your
Spiritual place.
CHRISTIAN THERAPY FOR TEENS HELP FREE TEEN THERAPY WITH TEENAGE THERAPY HOPE
When something enters in that is
not TRUTH, you must eject it by telling the TRUTH to yourself, and the
lie must leave. If you accept something as TRUTH, it is planted in
your subconscious mind, and it remains there awaiting your spirit to act on
said thought, even when you are not consciously thinking on it.
Lemme give you an example ... Have you ever been
having a SON-sational day and all of the sudden you feel terrible and
know something is wrong, but cannot THINK of what it is? Then, you
kinda ponder on it and WHAM the bad thought comes to mind.
Another example is you are leaving your home and you
sense this feeling like you are forgetting something but have no idea
what it is until you sit there and ponder then WHAM, you remember what
it was and the feeling goes away.
These are "suppressed thoughts" ... You allowed
something in your mind and it lied dormant but your spirit reacts to
it whether you are conscious of the actual thought or not. In the
second case YOU told YOURSELF to remember something and tho YOU
forgot, your subconscious mind ... DID NOT. Your SPIRIT reacted to
that thought.
In like manner ... The weeds in your garden are things that you’ve
accepted within whether it be from you or another source and
since you have not dealt with it, but it IS in there, it keeps sending
a warning of sorts that it needs to be dealt with.
Now most like to just sweep their probs under the
rug (so to speak) and try and just push the thoughts back within when
they pop up that warning sign by coming to your conscious mind. You
must CHOOSE to identify
the lies and bad thoughts that you’ve accepted and HARBOR, and pull them out by replacing them
with the TRUTH.
YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND
Think of your mind as a computer. You have files
that have been in there since the day you were born. They’re called
memories. Many of them, you don’t even know are in there. You’re not
conscious of them. They’re like a closed folder until your
memory chooses to open them up. Let me give you an example ...
You’re driving down the street past the park, and
you see a little kid swinging on a swing. Suddenly you remember your
cousin’s birthday party that you went to at a park, when you were
five. Wow, you haven’t thought about that in years! And with all the
things that you have to remember in your busy life, all the years that
have passed, all you’ve learned, all you’ve done, and everywhere
you’ve been, you still have that memory stored in your subconscious
mind. That memory can trigger other memories. If you think a little
more, you remember the cherry chip cake with the confetti icing at the
party, and the Neapolitan ice cream, and the Playdoh factory that you
gave your cousin for a present and even that one trick candle that
kept relighting.
Well, I hate to burst a birthday balloon, but I must
bring you back to the present now, because there’s a fact that I have
to share with you. Inside your mind are millions, if not billions of
memories, facts, sights, sounds, smells, tastes, thoughts, feelings,
fears, doubts, desires, TRUTHs, and many other things including, I’m
sorry to say ... LIES ... That are waiting in folders in the recesses of
your mind, called your subconscious, that will open up if and when
they’re triggered by one of your 6 senses.
The prob is ... The enemy of your soul pushes those
buttons as to affect you cuz he is the one who planted those thoughts
from the get go, despite the means by which he used to do so, and he
knows you have chosen not to deal with it so he just throws out
something that hits your senses and WHAM ... Your subconscious opens
the file ... And your spirit reacts.
Obviously, there are things stored in your
subconscious, that you don’t want in there. We’ve been calling them
weeds. But you can’t reformat your mind, because there’s a lot in
there that you want to keep. Those are the TRUTHs. What you CAN do, is
get rid of the stuff that you don’t want anymore ONE AT A TIME and
when they reveal themselves. It’s not only
affecting the performance of your computer, but it’s also taking up
valuable space that you’re going to be using for new TRUTHs that you
will learn.
Below is a diagram of the mind and how it operates.
You can see that thoughts are able to enter into your Conscience mind
where the blue arrows are. If you believe or accept whatever entered
as TRUTH, it goes to a storage area to be recalled later. If you don’t
believe it, you eject it, represented by the red arrows.
CHRISTIAN THERAPY FOR TEENS CHART FREE TEEN THERAPY WITH TEENAGE THERAPY THOUGHT CONTROL
THE MIND
PRINT OR CREATE THIS CHART ON PAPER
You’ll notice that
WORDS and
ACTIONS
are the way to eject what you don’t want to be planted.
Why ... Because you have to make it perfectly clear,
and understood to the adversary, who wants those lies planted in your
mind, that they are rejected. If you do nothing, that’s an action in
itself. Doing nothing is a choice, and your mind many times accepts it
as truth when it may be a lie but since you chose to do nothing ... It
is within you. Anything unwanted may just loiter around in there if
you don’t eliminate it. R ejection
is one thing that the enemy of your soul doesn’t like, so use it as one of your
gardening tools to get rid of weeds.
James 4:7
Submit yourselves therefore to God.
Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. |
Let me give you a couple of examples of how to
eject
a lie. Let’s say a
respected friend tells you seriously that the sky just turned green.
That’s hard to believe, you say, but you take
action
by going over to the
window and looking out at the sky. You’ve taken
action,
by proving to yourself
that the sky is in fact still blue. Now, had you not proven the TRUTH
to yourself, you may have walked around believing that the sky just
may have turned green until the next time you saw it. But by your
actions,
you’ve confirmed the
lie to your mind, it is
ejected,
the TRUTH goes back to it’s storage place, and the TRUTH, that your
friend is just a practical joker, (or has suddenly gone colorblind),
and that the sky IS blue is planted within your subconscious.
That’s a lighthearted example, now here’s one that’s
slightly more serious. Let’s say you had a horrible thought that you
know isn’t true. Write down
(action)
the thought. Then
eject the
lie and reinforce the TRUTH as quickly as possible. Then IMAGINE the
LIE being destroyed within as you trash the paper you wrote the
thought on. I have personally lit that
bad boy up and watched the lie burn to show my Lord that I ain't the
one. Please be careful if you are gonna try this one at home boys and
girls.
Notice the word
EJECT.
CHRISTIAN THERAPY FOR TEENS TO TAKE CONTROL FREE TEEN THERAPY WITH TEENAGE THERAPY TEST
That doesn’t mean to keep any feelings of shame, fear, anger, doubt,
or anything else inside, to “get in touch” with later. Always focus on the TRUTH. Lies and evil hate to be brought into the
light. The light IS TRUTH. It is the enemy that wants you to harbor
such thoughts so he can pull your puppet strings at will.
If you’re alone, don’t be afraid to talk out loud.
By speaking out, you are exposing the lie to the light. Another
example: If the devil tells you that you shouldn’t forgive another, you would say something like this: Let’s tell
the TRUTH now. My Lord says, Forgive all or I won’t be forgiven (Matthew
6:14-15).
In most cases, it was just the devil that planted the seed of
deception in the mind of the soul that hurt you and UNLIKE you, they
were not taught how to remove the evil seed and it became habit. This
means this soul that hurt you was only being used by the enemy of your
soul as a puppet, to do his bidding and that is to plant horrible
seeds within us which cause us to be unforgiving as to hinder us from
accepting GRACE.
Cuz, my friend ... The enemy of your soul
knows the rules of the Spiritual Warfare game very well and KNOWS that
we must FORGIVE to be FORGIVEN so he creates circumstances that hurt
us so we will not forgive.
Chances are that there are many untruths lurking
around in your mind that contribute to your problem. Remember when you
identified your problem(s) in STEPPING STONE #5? I helped you out with
the one about selfishness, and now I’m going to help you with another
one. It’s called doubt.
There’s something down deep in your subconscious,
that may be telling you that this program may not work for you. I mean
after all, how can anything that’s free and without obligation of any
kind, work on something as serious as your problem which you have
carried for so very long? It’s GOOD to admit
it. In TRUTH, it won’t work unless you do admit it, and obliterate that doubt.
You can’t kill a weed unless you admit it’s there. Now, doubt is more
like a fungus than a weed ... Kinda like mildew.
You’ve got little seedlings in your garden that are
young and fragile, and a little doubt, a little fungus, a little
mildew, can ruin them. Doubt likes to grow in the dark, it doesn’t
want anybody to know it’s there ... Especially you, because you might
just identify it and attack it with some kind of mold spray called the
light of TRUTH and then where would it be?
It would be HISTORY.
Well that is NOT
the enemy's plan. His plan is to keep you under subjection by use of
fear and doubt. The last thing he needs is for you to BELIEVE and
establish HOPE.
So call forth that doubt and let’s give it a large dose of the TRUTH called
FAITH, so it’ll wither up and die!
It always helps to have a visual picture of things
to put them into perspective. You’ve seen little animations of the
little
ANGEL standing on your shoulder whispering into your mind. That’s
your conscience, telling you TRUTH and righteousness.
On your other
shoulder is the depiction of an
EVIL SPIRIT, standing in the little red suit with a pitchfork,
whispering wickedness. Don’t let birds leave droppings of doubt in
the garden of your mind. Take
action
... Press
the fingernail of your index finger to your thumb, and flick that
little imp off your shoulder!
Do you remember when we first became friends, the
very first TRUTH I shared with you is that you must possess Faith. Now
I’m going to answer the question, How can something FREE possibly
work? Because Jesus promised that it would. He gave His life for FREE. He gave us
Salvation for FREE.
Have FAITH in Him and He will set you FREE of your
problem.
CHRISTIAN THERAPY FOR TEENS HOPE FREE TEEN THERAPY WITH TEENAGE THERAPY DAREIf you scroll back up to the mind chart, you’ll see
that the categories inside the left hand column are the things that
you want to keep. In this STEPPING STONE, your task is to weed out
anything that falls into the categories inside the right hand column.
To do this, go back to the problem(s) that you identified. Ask
yourself which sense it used to get into your mind in the first place.
Find it's source. You can do this procedure with ALL bad thoughts
within or lies from this day forth, that reveal their ugly head.
Imagine in your mind, but actually do it, with your
finger and drag that lie to the center circle and tell the TRUTH about
this matter. Then
eject it with
words
or
actions.
If you’d like, you can
use this as one of your activities in your MIRACLE GROW project by
doing this once a day. Soon you’ll be replacing those categories on
the right with ones like patience, humility, compassion, benevolence,
hope, understanding, dependability, etc.
CHOOSING TO ACTUALLY DO
THIS FOR 30 DAYS WILL TRAIN YOU TO DO THIS WITHOUT THE PAPER
THEREAFTER AND ESTABLISH AN AWESOME NEW HABIT OF DEFENSE.
Let me remind you once again, that you are the
Temple of God, MADE
IN HIS IMAGE, and you have to be cautious of what you
let inside.
Out with the bad, in with the good.
REMEMBER ...
THINK GOOD THOUGHTS
Philippians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever
things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things
are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are
lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any
virtue, and if there be any praise,
THINK on these things. |
Ask God to help you with your weeding. Ask Him to
show you the TRUTH that you’re seeking for. He’s the most effective
weed killer there is!
SEEK THE TRUTH
Where does TRUTH come from?
John 14:6
I am the way, THE TRUTH, and the
life. |
Hosea 10:12
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your
fallow ground: for it is time to
SEEK THE LORD, till He come and rain righteousness upon you. |

CHRISTIAN THERAPY FOR TEENS GRACE FREE TEEN THERAPY WITH TEENAGE THERAPY FORGIVENESS
We all
make mistakes. We fall. Sin gets in our way. Temptation
surrounds us and we don't always resist. But that is exactly
why God
sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins,
and to give us the FREE gift of Grace He wants you to ask
forgiveness and keep fighting the good fight of faith. When
you find yourself struggling with feelings of failure,
unworthiness, fear, weakness or shame, just remember that
God
loves
you so very much and He
wants you to get back up when you stumble. PERSEVERE! NEVER
GIVE UP! If you have a bad day, this study will help you
understand more about the liberating GRACE that our Father
wants each and every one of us to enjoy.
