A Key To the Kingdom

One of the keys to the Kingdom is meditation, thinking about something over and over until it begins to have an effect on us. We can meditate on Scripture. In Philippians 4:8, Paul says that we should fill our minds with and meditate on these things:  
True
Noble
Reputable
Authentic
Compelling
Gracious
The Best, Not The Worst
The Beautiful, Not The Ugly
Things To Praise, Not Things To Curse
(The Message)
Find a compelling passage of Scripture and start meditating on it today. Discover the power of renewing your mind. When you find yourself thinking negatively or struggling with temptation, quote that verse to yourself and see how powerfully Christ will act in your behalf. Take one of the topics above each day and think about things in that area. Meditating God’s way will change your life.
