Win the War In Your Mind
An Inspirational Devotion From Pastor Brian
June 13, 2025
Let’s talk about something every one of us faces. It’s a daily battle that happens not with fists or weapons, but right between our ears. It’s the battlefield of the mind.
I believe one of the main places Satan attacks is in our thoughts. Why? Because our actions often follow what we think. Before someone tells a lie, cheats, steals, or even hurts someone, it all starts as a thought. The mind is the battleground where the enemy tries to plant seeds of fear, worry, doubt, anger, or temptation.
But here’s something important. Being tempted is not a sin. Did you catch that? We are all tempted. The sin comes when we choose to act on the wrong thought. That’s why it’s so important to stop and ask ourselves, Where is this thought coming from? Is it from God or is it from the enemy?
If the thought lines up with God’s Word, it’s a good one. If it goes against God’s Word, we must reject it. This is where we ask the Holy Spirit to help us see clearly and make the right choice.
We are most vulnerable when we’re hungry, lonely, tired, or weak. That’s when Satan tries to sneak in with lies. But with God’s help, we can win every battle in our mind.
Until next time, remember to take time out for God, because God always has time for you!
Sticky Statement:
The mind is the battlefield, but God's Word is your greatest weapon.
Questions To Think About
Prayer For Today:
"Heavenly Father, thank You for loving me and for giving me the power to overcome temptation. Help me today to guard my mind and fill it with Your truth. When wrong thoughts come, remind me to stop and ask where they’re from. Give me strength to reject the lies and choose Your way instead. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen."
