YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK YOU ARE

YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK YOU ARE


For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Prov 23:7. KJV

The aphorism, "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he," not only embraces the whole of a man's being, but is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life. A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.

A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. Matthew 12:35. KJV

Man is the mater of thought, the moulder of character, and the maker and shaper of condition, environment and destiny.
As a being of power, intelligence and love, and the lord of his own thoughts, man holds te key to every situation, and contain within himself that transforming and regenerative agency by which he may make himself what he wills.

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. Prov 4:23.
KJV

A man’s mind may be likened to a garden which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild; but whether cultivated or neglected, it must and will bring forth.

The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.
Prov 12:5. KJV

The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words. Prov 15:26. KJV

Every thought seed sown or allowed to fall into the mind and take root there produces its own, blossoming sonner or later into act and bearing its own fruitage of opportunity and circumstances.. good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bad fruit.
You can build in your mind a perfect scene of whatever you want to accomplish, if you repeat them often with faith and attention, the subconscious mind will accept them as real experiences and in most natural way make necessary changes to make your reality fit your inner image

Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Joshua 1:8. NIV

The power of thoughts can help you to get a new job, improve your relationship, earn more money, and improve your life, good health and all round success. All this does not happen overnight, it needs time and depends on how sincere you are in your efforts and on how much time and concentration you put into your way of thinking. Good thoughts can never produce bad result; bad thoughts can never produce good results. Decide what you want to get or achieve, and start thinking about it during the day and night, these repeated thoughts would get stronger and bring inner and outer changes

Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice. John 18:37. KJV

Thou has proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou has tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress. Psalm 17:3. KJV

A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart and set out to accomplish it; He should made this purpose the centralizing point of his thoughts. He should make this purpose his supreme duty, and should devote himself to its attainment not allowing his thoughts to wander away into ephemeral fancies, longings and imaginings.
Though of doubt and fear never accomplished anything and never can. They always lead to failure. The will to do springs from the knowledge that we can do. Doubt and fear are great enemies of knowledge, every thought is allied with the power, and all difficulties are bravely met and wisely overcome.
All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts; As he thinks, so he is, as he continues to think, so he remains.
A man can only rise, conquer and achieve by lifting up his thoughts, your thoughts can draw or repel success, and they shape your beliefs and expectations about success and failure.
Take it as a challenge, and pay more attention to your thoughts and feelings, find out what kind of thoughts you think and what kind of feelings you usually experience with them, if they are positive thoughts and feelings of success that’s okay but if your thoughts and feeling are about failure, unhappiness and dissatisfaction, then you need to do something about them.
