Being mindful of the Lord is vital. To get to know Him and think of
Him the more you
acknowledge Him in your life, the more of Himself He will show you.
If, at any time, you
find yourself not thinking of the LORD immediately start doing so.
It's vital
to know His Word and have it within your heart, because the more
Word you know the more you
can think of Him. The more you think of Him, the more stable your
mind becomes.
I have
witnessed this first hand being diagnosed with bipolar disorder, but
I know the
LORD is greater
than any disorder and sickness.
There are scriptures
that will help if you have them in your mind.
Isaiah 53:5 states that He was wounded for our transgression, He
was bruised for our
iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and
with His
stripes we are
healed. That literally shows us the LORD is our Everything, our
All
in All, Doctor,
Father, Justifier, Peacemaker with God, and everything we need.
Another scripture
springing to mind is 2 Timothy 1:7, "For God hath not given us the
spirit of fear; but of
power, and of love, and of a sound mind." The Lord will correct your
mind if your
confidence is in scripture. As a matter of fact, He will
correct your mind to WHAT HE SAID!
Romans 12:2 says, "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye
transformed by the
renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good,
acceptable, and perfect, will
of God." We renew our mind by reading scripture, studying it, and
meditating on it. We allow it to become part of us, by letting it change the way we think.
Choosing to the think
on the Word is a choice. We can either think about our troubles
or we can think about
Jesus, our LORD. Mighty is He! It all starts with seeking Him in His
Word for it is
Truth. In fact it is more true than us and it is forever. Settle these
things. Let the LORD
comfort you. Spend time with Him!
