GET RID OF NEGATIVE MENTALITY





Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (Philippians 4:8). Of all the means of attack of the enemy like projection, oppression, possession, affliction, the worst is programming. With the first means, the enemy or the agents are present but in programming, they are not there. Evil programming is when the enemy installs a program in your mind and it keeps running and affecting how your life turns out. To better understand this, think of a computer. Someone comes with a software and installs the program into the computer and leaves. He doesn’t need to be present for the program to function. Every time you boot the computer, the program is running in the computer. The human mind is like a computer. What the enemy does to many people is to program limitations in their minds and so despite God’s plans for a glorious life, they can’t go beyond their mind-program. Some have a mind-program that ‘this is how my life should be,’ ‘this sickness runs in my family so it will affect me,’ ‘wealth is meant for others and not me,’ ‘I can never have A in any course because I am not that intelligent,’ and so on. You can’t go beyond the limitations of your mind.

Beloved, fight this negative mentality with all the spiritual weapons you can muster. “Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.” (Psalms 119:9). There is a saying that you cannot stop a bird from flying over your head but you can stop it from perching on your head. To achieve this, Study of the Word is key; Then is prayer; Then yield to the Holy Spirit; Then be careful what you listen to; Then be mindful of the company you keep. Make it a daily routine and you will uninstall that evil program of negative mentality.
