Taking Control of Our Thoughts– Dr. Charles Stanley

The Bible is full of truth about the importance of controlling our minds. In this sermon, Dr. Stanley shares biblical truth found in Colossians 3 about how our tendencies to think as unbelievers change when we become believers. Christ gives us renewed thoughts, and the Bible to guide us towards thinking like Christ—with godly and positive thoughts.

    EVERY Christian should listen to this message at least once a week, their whole life long. 99% of the enemies attack, is in our thoughts. Thank you Mr. Stanley for listening to God, and sharing faithfully. Praise be to Jesus.

    In 2014 I was diagnosed with severe stage 4 endometriosis. I was told to hurry to have children because I’d need a hysterectomy within 2 years. I was devastated but ended up getting pregnant 2 years later. 🙌🏽then again when my daughter was 6 months(not trying that time lol) after giving birth to my second daughter, my pain came back with a vengeance! I was out of work for months, could barely walk… reallllllly going through it. For those who don’t know, there’s no cure for endometriosis so I went to schedule surgery to have some of it cut/burn which brings relief. My surgery was scheduled for 9/16/2019 and I couldn’t wait because I knew it would bring relief. I went for my pre op on 9/9/2019 and was told that due to how severe my pain and endo was that the surgery likely wouldn’t help And That due to alll of the scar tissue without a doubt I would need a colostomy bag😢. With that news I was ready to end my life! I went home to write out my goodbyes but something told me to pray. I prayed and said “God you created the Heavens and the Earth, I need you to work a miracle in my life! When I go in on Monday I don’t want them to find ANY ENDOMETRIOSIS! In Jesus name I pray. Amen.” I went in for surgery that Monday and the doctors couldn’t find ANY endometriosis! I celebrated 3 years healed this year. There is NOTHINGGGGGGGGG impossible with the Most High Holy Loving & TRUE Father in Heaven!! Trust Him 🙌🏽here’s a video from my channel if anyone is interested https://youtu.be/JU1Zk92gqDY

    • @josieposie9969 says:

      ​@@minamatta9732Thank you for that! The Church is very much part of our faith and religion as in Christianity is inexplicably tied to Christ. He is the groom of the Church, who is the Bride.

    • @francisicobanman6231 says:

      The Bible doesn’t speaks somuch of going to heaven as people do. John 14 speaks of Jesus as the way to the Father. In verse 20 he has US in the Father by us being in Christ. He speaks of a relationship, a union. We need to do things being in Him. Then 1 Thessalonians 1:1 and 2 Thessalonians 1:1 speak of the church being in God the Father and i n the Lord Jesus Christ. It was also the Lord’s thought in John 17 to have US in the Divine Trinity, in oneness.

    • @ellenwilliams6467 says:

      @@minamatta9732, without a relationship with Jesus, one cannot create the desire to bend our will to His. Religion & good works gain us nothing without a surrender to a loving relationship with Him who loved us first!

    I got brain cancer –
    “A warrior I am, against this foe,
    This battle I’ll win, and make it show.
    The chemo’s tough, but I’m tougher still,
    My strength and spirit, I won’t let it kill.
    Though the cancer tries to take its toll,
    I’ll fight with all my heart and soul.
    I’ll stand up strong, with courage and grace,
    And show the world, I’ll win this race.” Jesus heals!

      I never receaved any help or healing hearing this man speak when i used to watch that bad television, the only healing and help i have ever receaved is from Jesus Christ himself. Is it not true faith to understand that Jesus himself is communing with his followers and teaching them how to please the father? I trust no man but Jesus and am very careful walking this world as i CROSS this riVER iORDAN.
