As I am going through this season of testing, one of the things that happened to me is I soon became unable to think clearly. Everything was on my mind all of the time.
My ability to trust God, left me as I tried to figure out how it would all work out.
And then I had a friend who (bless her) prayed against confused thinking.
I didn’t notice for about 20 minutes but I was able to be positive again and think clearly….it was wonderful!!
I believe that the enemy comes against our thinking because if we can’t think straight we cant do all that God is calling us to do.
I was reminded that I need to
If you are struggling to think straight, know that you are under attack. I encourage you to pray with me.
Father God,
I come to you and ask for you to give me clear thinking.
Help me to separate the truth of what you are calling me to do from the lies of the enemy.
Do not allow the enemy to cloud my thinking.
Help me to stay close to you and to easily recognize your voice.
Cast all negative thinking from me, as I know it is not from you.
Help we to remember to examine my thinking often, so as to be able to cast any away that not of you.
In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen

If you can do anything, do it. Have a heart and help us!”
Jesus said, “If? There are no ‘ifs’ among believers. Anything can happen.”
No sooner were the words out of his mouth than the father cried, “Then I believe. Help me with my doubts!”
Mark 9:22-24 (MSG)
“But for now, dear servant Jacob, listen—
yes, you, Israel, my personal choice.
God who made you has something to say to you;
the God who formed you in the womb wants to help you.
Don’t be afraid, dear servant Jacob,
Jeshurun, the one I chose.
For I will pour water on the thirsty ground
and send streams coursing through the parched earth.
I will pour my Spirit into your descendants
and my blessing on your children.
They shall sprout like grass on the prairie,
like willows alongside creeks.
This one will say, ‘I am God’s,’
and another will go by the name Jacob;
That one will write on his hand ‘God’s property’—
and be proud to be called Israel.”
God, King of Israel,
your Redeemer, God-of-the-Angel-Armies, says:
“I’m first, I’m last, and everything in between.
I’m the only God there is.
Who compares with me?
Speak up. See if you measure up.
From the beginning, who else has always announced what’s coming?
So what is coming next? Anybody want to venture a try?
Don’t be afraid, and don’t worry:
Haven’t I always kept you informed, told you what was going on?
You’re my eyewitnesses:
Have you ever come across a God, a real God, other than me?
There’s no Rock like me that I know of.”
Isaiah 44 (MSG)
