Whenever you see things through a negative filter, you need to take those thoughts captive to Me. Negative thoughts come from My enemy who desires to keep you weighted down with worry, anxiety, and fear. My friend Paul knew how to battle negativity. He exhorted the church in Corinth to take captive vain imaginations and thoughts that exalted self above Me by giving those thoughts to Me. He also exhorted the Colossian church to set their affection on the things above rather than the things on this earth. These two exhortations reveal the secret to thinking the positive thoughts that I give you rather than the negative thoughts My enemy gives you.
The moment you are in the negative mode of thinking, give every anxious, worry, and fearful thought to Me. Then ask Me to replace those thoughts with My righteous, positive thoughts of peace, joy, and love. My Kingdom includes righteous thinking. You have My mind. Submit your mind to Me daily and ask for My anointing of wisdom and understanding, might and council, knowledge and the fear of the Lord. When you do this you will not fall into My enemy's snare of negativity.
