John
17:17 say’s “Your word is truth.” This is an extremely powerful statement.
Along with the fact that sanctification comes by truth. Many people
struggle to find truth and “reality.” Few people search for
sanctification. The truth can set us free. (John 8:32) If we love the
truth we can have salvation. (2 Thess. 2:9-13). The truth is also able to
shield us. (Psalm 91:4c) All men seek freedom, salvation, and protection. God’s
word is where it is found. Why would we seek for it anywhere else?
Think on what is lovely. Let God direct your mind to what is truly lovely in this world. At the very least that tree, flower, and blade of grass that He made and you saw today is lovely. Let Him influence your thoughts every day until you think on what God considers lovely. Then dwell on those things. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom. (Col. 3:16) There will be an overflow of lovely thoughts pour from your mind. Think about how encouraging to others that would be. Think lovely thoughts.
