Don't let the devil have head space~~~
Wonder what that heading mean?? I truly believe that if you dwell on your problems, stay around things that are tempting, be around people who aren't good for you, listen or watch things you shouldn't be, your letting the devil take up residence in your head.
Guess what that is all he needs is a little bit space inside of your head and he would love to expand the space as best as he can. Sometimes you know it and sometimes you don't know it. Sometimes it is fast, quick, and on the other hand it could be slow at a snails pace.
Some people don't think you things you watch on tv, movies, read, or listen to has an effect on your life, thoughts or your relationship with Jesus. You may think it is harmless, but in reality sorry to say it is very harmful. It is the devil working in you. You may recall something you saw or read or even heard later on & wonder where that thought come from?? Why am I thinking this?? Well guess where it came from?? Something you saw, read or listened to that you should be staying away from.
You need to surround yourself with good things, good people, watch things on tv that aren't sexual, being sarcastic, mean, hateful, or crude ( yes I know good luck finding shows/movies like that). Yes you can do it, takes discipline,motivation and the want to do that. What would you do if Jesus himself walked into your house right now? Would you hide what your watching, reading or listening to?? Would you try to reason/justify it to God himself that it is okay because you think it doesn't make a difference. (but it does make a difference)
Why do you think Children are acting, talking and behaving they way they are today?? It is because no one is taking their child to church, teaching them about Jesus, God's love, and showing others kindness. They are being babysitted by the TV ( who knows what they are seeing or hearing including trashy cartoons) and the internet via phone. Children are trying to be like what they see, wearing what they see and talking like what they hear, just to belong, so they aren't outcast-ed. I hate to say this but it has become a selfie, all about me, children growing to become the same in Adults.
God has given you a gift of raising a child, so how do you think God would rate you on being a parent???
Well take back at being a landlord in your head & keep the devil out as much as you can. Fill your thoughts, your eyes and your ears with the Lord Jesus Christ, stay focused on HIM, the Lord Jesus Christ!!.
Just keep asking yourself is this really glorifying Jesus?
Would Jesus want to sit and watch the tv/movie with me or Would you invite Jesus too?
Would Jesus want me to be reading this book or would you recommend it to Jesus to read?
Would Jesus want me to be listening to this music? Is it praising Jesus? Is it getting you closer to Jesus? Would you want to be singing this to a one person audience of God??
Would Jesus want me to be here with these people doing these things?
Stay focused on Jesus and concentrate on your walk with God to make it Heaven. Be aware of whats around you and your children.
Think about.... if it is time to change then do it... nothing on this earth is worth missing out an eternity in Heaven with Jesus Christ!!
