This Book Helped Me: Battlefiled of the Mind

I would love to thank my two Pastor friends who are a couple for pouring spiritual wisdom into my heart. The beginning of this was in the early stage of year 2009. At the time all of these happened my wife was working in Africa and I had gone to visit her. One very day, my wife and I took a walk to the man and woman of God's house. The Pastor then told me that he would love to mentor me in the things of God's kingdom. I being spiritually hungry, I gladly accepted. This went on for about three months after which I became spiritually sound.

One terrible thing happened immediately my wife and I came back from  a London, England vacation. I became spiritually challenged and got completely confused as to what to do. Spontaneously I remembered all the spiritual training I had received from my Pastor friend. I also was given a book by Joyce Meyer, "Battlefield of the Mind: Winning the Battle in Your Mind". As I applied the steps in this book and the strategies I learned from the man of God, I gradually got relieved.

Now it is clear to me that God uses those who are ordinary and perhaps have gone through challenges to change the world. For example, Jesus was betrayed and rejected; Joyce Meyer was sexually abused during her youth; Kenneth Hagin had a heart disease from birth; others lived in total poverty. I could write a long list of God's generals in the Bible who fit this category. However, the common thing is that He brought all of them through it.

It is good to have a discerning spirit because the God and the enemy bring people into your life for certain reasons. God does so to improve you and the enemy does so to destroy you.

Power of the Mind Versus Faith

Do you know that there is a positive correlation between faith and the power of the mind? This is similar to the word of God, which says; "He is the God that calleth those things which are not as though they were". Follow me closely here! A weak or tired mind cannot exhibit strong faith, and a strong or healthy mind has a much greater chance of exhibiting powerful or unquestionable faith.

The Biblical faith definition can be seen in (Hebrews 11: 1):  "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen".

Before we continue: What is a different faith definition? Another way to define faith: This is what I believe and I am not going to waver until I receive it. 

Sometimes when you act in faith, you are acting in your subconscious mind. Let me share an example here. Imagine a friend or family member is sick with terminal illness. The situation is getting worse and the person is fast becoming a vegetable. The doctors say there is only a one percent chance of survival. In this scenario, in order to exhibit stubborn faith, you must first of all deny your conscious and tap into the unconscious mind. Once this occurs, you are able to tell the doctors that the patient will survive. I have heard many cases as this in which unquestionable faith brought about healing, deliverance, wonders and so forth.

Whatever your desires or wants, if you can envision its reception in your mind, then you have a higher chance of receiving it. In order to effectively paint a picture of your desire(s) in your mind and accept it, you must operate in the power of your unconscious mind. This is similar to meditation, which God instructs all His children to practice continually. One very evening, as I had been trying to get something done for many hours; suddenly my mind caught a glimpse of the solution in the form of a picture. Guess what happened next! The task instantly got accomplished. 

How do you maintain a very healthy mind? By eating a healthy balanced diet, exercising, and dwelling on the things of God's Kingdom. Remember, this must be done continually and not once or twice. 

I am writing this article based on my personal experience. Remember God is no respecter of person. What he does for one; He will do for another. This is why everything that happened to man in the Biblical era is still happening today. You may look at some scriptures on faith here: http://bit.ly/1nEg1YS
