Psychologists call it metacognition when we think about what we’re thinking about. The Bible calls it capturing every thought (2 Corinthians 10:5).
Sometimes it takes reversing our thinking.
The devil has a singular agenda: He wants to steal joy from your life, he wants to kill any hope you have for the future, and he wants your end to be utter destruction.
Jesus has a singular agenda for you too: I have come that you might have abundant life.
Try reversing your thinking. Try thinking about your thinking in a different way.
The devil says, “Life has no purpose.” God says, “I created you on purpose.”
The devil says, “You’re nothing special.” God says, “You’re one-of-a-kind.”
The devil says, “You’ll never find true love.” God says, “I love you so much that I died for you.”
The devil says, “God remembers you blew it.” God says, “I’ve forgotten everything I’ve forgiven.”
The devil says, “This life is all there is.” God says, “You can’t even imagine what’s coming next!”
Reverse your thinking to listen to what God says.
