Whatever controls your mind controls you. The battle each day is for our minds. At salvation, Christ began to dwell in our minds, and we were given the duty to guard, protect, and properly nourish our minds.
The world, our flesh, and the Devil all seek to neutralize our godly minds. Grace-energized men of reverence know that Christ wants to inhabit their thoughts, and they never forget Him as they assess the daily patterns and habits of life.
How does Satan neutralize believers? He attacks their unguarded minds. Listen to Peter’s impassioned plea to all believers in I Peter 5:8-9:
1 Peter 5:8-9
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
9 Resist him, steadfast in the faith… NKJV
Satan devours believers by way of unguarded minds. And never before has he had so many ways to do so.
