Our thoughts are like a magnifying glass, dissecting every detail to the smallest element or particle that we can imagine. Our focus, like the zoom on a camera, uncovering every thing that is hidden behind the cracks and crevices of our mind with the intent to bring to the light every dark, ugly and bad thing that can possibly be imagined for any situation at any given time."Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour" (Peter 5:8). We give Satan the upper hand when we think on the negative aspects of our lives. Negative thinking as well as a negative focus is "Satan's Breakthrough". Satan breaks into our lives with the intent to keep us burdened, hindered, oppressed and depressed; weighing us down. Note: when you are carrying something heavy on your shoulders and back, you can't look up. Meaning you can't praise God.
Focusing on the problem is a mediocre way of living life, because it is so easy to do. When we focus on our problems, we don't magnify God. When we focus on our problems, we eclipse God, inviting darkness into our life, once this happens, we are then unable to live in the blessing of the light because we don't "MAGNIFY GOD," we don't "RESEMBLE JESUS" and we certainly don't wear the blessing.
We don't serve a mediocre God, so let's not live a mediocre life through thoughts (and deeds).
"I will keep thee in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on thee because he trusted in thee." (Isaiah 26:3)
