Your mind When you got saved you received a new spirit. That spirit is perfect and wants to please God. However your mind is not new, you have the same mind you had when you were a sinner. And so God says your mind has to be transformed by reading the Word of God Rom.12 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. with the Word of God Satan knows that your mind is still the same so he try's to attack your mind. The battle ground here on earth is for the control of your mind. The only weapon satan has is to attack you thru your thoughts. He tries to discourage you by telling you about all of your failures, sins, wrong choices and bad relationships you have had. He wants to take control of you by controlling your mind. He has no power so he uses deception and lies to try to deceive you. God tells you how to fight Satan. God says you should bind all evil spirits out of your mind and put on God's Armor. Then pray a hedge of protection around yourself. God will do the rest. Once you are saved you are God's child and wants you to know who you are in Christ. God says you are His child and you are more than a conqueror. He says you are an ambassador for Christ and you are to fight the evil around you. He also says you can do all things thru Christ and that all things are possible if you believe. So trust God and use His might to strengthen yourself. Here are some scriptures that God says you should do to protect your mind. 2 Corinthians 10 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; Phil.4 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Eph.5 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.
CynthiaScar, I am praying for you
God's plan for you to prosper God has a plan for everything in your life and He explains clearly in the Bible what you need to do to receive His blessings. First we need to see if God wants you to prosper. 3John 1 Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospers. God states very clearly that He wants you to prosper. So if you are needing a job or more money - the first thing you need to do is pray and ask God for seed money . God says He will provide us with the seeds to plant and then He will cause the growth. 2Cor.9 Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also multiply your seed When the seed money comes don't spend it, plant it back into God's Kingdom. God says when you do that He will give more back to you than you gave to Him. If you need a job He will also provide you with one.
