The mind is where good and evil fight for our soul. In this battle for control of your mind and your thought life (good vs. bad influences) you need to acknowledge your weaknesses for what they really are… your inborn human sinful nature…and ask the Lord’s Holy Spirit to join you in this deadly battle. He can give you the strength, wisdom, and energy for the fight to keep your focus on the Lord and His ways. Romans 8:5-6–Paul wrote to the Romans: “Those who are dominated by the sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit. So letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death. But letting the Spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.”
