Martin Luther once said:
“You cannot keep birds from flying over your head but you can keep them from building a nest in your hair.”
With this quote he illustrates a vital point...
You may not be able to keep temptations from entering your mind but you can choose how you'll respond to them.
And it's here all our dominion efforts begin, in the mind...
And how well we rule and cultivate our domains depends on taking good care of the thought life.
There is so little in life any of us can control, but we can decide what we think about.
Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things (Phil.4:8).
Get Dominion,
