Tune up – Day 23

Tip the Teeter-Totter

How does the teeter-totter tip in the direction of the flesh?

You are currently double-minded about the lust of the world. If you were not, you would either be completely free or completely embracing pornography as being good. The fact that there is an internal war over pornography means that you have both the Spirit of truth and the lies about pornography residing in you. However, to allow yourself to stay in doubt is dangerous and can harden the heart. When more energy is produced on the side of the flesh, threshold occurs and the teeter-totter tips. Ths happens when the strategy of the flesh is allowed to go on.

Hebrews 3:13 NASB – “But encourage one another day after day, as long as it is still called “today,” so that none of you will be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.”

The more the teeter-totter falls on the side of lust, the more the neuro-highway develops into a super fast neuro-highway without any obstacles to slow it down. Then the person feels guilt and shame with little or no change. This is one of the reasons we are warned. You master, you guard, you take captive, you walk by the Spirit, you be led by the Spirit, and you live by the Spirit. You must decide! Decide to train your brain now!

You must decide to train your brain. Do this objectively and purposefully. Do it in advance when there is nothing to fight. You are the strongest when you decide to be objective and train your brain.

Whenever you decide to break the glass or set the pictures on fire, say with a loud, ferocious, internal voice, “I AM DONE, NO MORE OF THIS IN JESUS’ NAME. I WILL NOT ALLOW THESE UGLY PICTURES TO RESIDE IN ME ANY LONGER.”
Smash them! Burn them up! Do it now, right now!!! Practice, practice, and then practice some more.

Be offensive, attack the issue. Do not wait until the problem occurs. Attack!!!! This is the offensive “how to” take captive and “how to” lead your brain. You are informing your brain that you are in charge and training your brain to do what you want it to do. Do not be conformed to this world matrix, but be transformed by the renewing or your mind (Romans 12:2).

God has given us everything we need for life and Godliness.

Training Your Brain Exercise – Practice Becomes You

Time to practice again! Smash those ugly pictures that represent lies. Say no to the lies that say sex is to be traded, love is lust, intimacy is simply about getting my needs met. Light the garbage on fire. Sweep up the glass/ashes. Hear Jesus say, “YES, well done faithful servant.” Ferociously, say to your soul, “Soul, listen very carefully. I will not allow those lies in my brain. This is my brain and I decide what to allow in here! In Jesus’ name, I will not allow this garbage in here anymore!!!” What you practice becomes you!
