Disciples are very careful about how they think. The mind is so powerful and if we are not careful about what we entertain in our thoughts, we may not enjoy the consequences of the actions that follow. Thinking bad thoughts lead to bad actions. And although we are in control of what we do, we are NOT in control of the consequences.
True followers of Christ think like Him. Are we always successful at doing so? Not all the time, let's be honest. Nevertheless, be encouraged. We can DO right as long as we THINK right. And how do we make sure that we are thinking correctly?
Our delight must be in the law of the LORD. We must meditate day and night (cf. Psalm 1:2). In other words, let our minds be consumed with the Word of God.
Study the Word

Successful discipleship
