Knowing Your Thoughts are Aligned with God
We are constantly bombarded with thoughts daily, some good and some bad. It’s what we do with those thoughts that determine which road we go down. It is the same with processing thoughts about ourselves and God that determine how we mature and grow or remain the same. Let’s say we had a thought, or we heard someone say something that we haven’t heard before and we ask God does this line up with you? Is this a thought I should entertain, or should I let it go? There is one easy way to determine, is this of God? We will be discussing that as well as other topics today here on Kingdom Building.
First of all, Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life, no one can approach the Father but by me. Jesus says he is the way to the Father. He didn’t say that a set of rules and regulations will get you to the Father. He didn’t say that organized religion will get you to the Father and he definitely didn’t say that performing a certain way or behaving a certain way, is the way to the Father.
God will never make you feel like you are falling short or feeling guilty or feeling spiritually inferior. Although, he will lovingly correct you, and there are right ways and wrong ways to correct a child. When God corrects you, you don’t feel bad, no, you feel like you want to pick yourself up and try harder. God is an encourager, not a discourager.
