Thoughts are the atmosphere of the mind.
Thoughts travel through the mind.
Thoughts enter the mind.
Thoughts lodge in the mind.
Thoughts are made up of words and pictures.
God’s Word – contains God’s thoughts. They travel to you too.

Set of your sail – attitude, mental direction: One ship goes East and the other West, by the selfsame gale that blows. It isn’t the gale but the set of the sail that determines which way it goes.
Wommack: Spirit Soul Body Lesson 4: renew, acknowledge, experience
Mental realm does not possess God’s power
It cooperates in the release of it.
My mind came to understand this – that made all the difference.
The mind must be ‘re-minded’!
It needs its sail set!

The mind is an intricate and dynamic organization.
A unique recipe that created your inner world
Mental processes: knowing, understanding, remembering.
The mind processes information to help you make sense of things.
What are your thoughts about YOU?
Your mental makeup isn’t static.
Your mind hears without sound or your ears hearing.
Lisa: I was thinking to myself….
Mike Hoesch:
the minute your mind has a name, it allows it and the enemy is going to try and get you to identify with it.
At that moment, sickness went from just being in my flesh to a thought. What had just been an inconvenience physically got into my mind. Before I had a name for it, it wasn’t in my mind or on my mind.
Your mind ‘sees’ what you are thinking and mentally believing.
When you believe you have a certain condition, have mentally accepted and believe it, it will be bound on you until your mind clearly sees what Christ did for you on the Cross.
Your body manifests what you believe mentally.
We can say the Scripture, 1 Peter 2:24, but then let thoughts of sickness dominate our mind/heart.
You can have positive and negative thoughts at the same time. Which ones do you agree with?
What is/are the dominant thoughts? Stop and examine your mind and find out.
Mike Hoesch:
The moment I believed the Truth to the exclusion of any other variable, the moment that quickened to my understanding/mind, I realized it was a lie I was believing that was keeping me bound. That moment MY MIND DID A RESET.
Once your mind becomes single the end result is going to be freedom/healing.
Your mind is a ‘filing cabinet’!
