Your attitude and your thoughts determines your outcome and your altitude.
It is really amazing to think that we can change our circumstances by the way we think.
The Word of God is very clear on this and says in Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honourable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. "
Have you ever noticed how easy it is meditate on a negative thought. E.G. there is some stress and pressure in an area of your life - What happens next is the obvious. Most of the thoughts we have for the day are consumed by entertaining the thoughts of the pressure and stress regarding the issue at hand.
Now what I am trying to say is that you can change our circumstances by the way we think. The way you look at stress and pressure, will determine the outcome of your circumstance.
Daniel said to king Nebuchadnezzar to not get stressed over his thoughts. But king Nebuchadnezzar got totally stressed out and his deposition changed, fear crept into his joints, his loins became loose and he started to shake at the knees. (Dan 5:6)
I know that we don't all get stressed out like King Nebuchadnezzar ending with ulcers and other stress related disorders, because we have medication to take the stress when stress comes our way.
The Word of God solves all of this, if we listen to what the Apostle Paul says and FINALLY think on these things and not let our heart get troubled.
God's Word says!
• Psa 94:11 "Jehovah knoweth the thoughts of man, That they are vanity. "
• Isa 55:9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my than your thoughts."
• Jer 29:11 "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter end."
The secret is to not think like the rest of society, but have a renewed thought process and now what is the plans of God for your life in every circumstance.
• Rom 12:2 And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, and ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Attitude and thoughts determines your outcome and altitude.

It was Napoleon Bonaparte who, early in his life, said, "God is on the side of the biggest artillery." Years later, when he was exiled on an island, he reversed his opinion, and conceded, "Man proposes, but God disposes." Napoleon learned the attitude of "If it is the Lord's will" the hard way. May we learn it now. Ask God to give you the mind of Christ in all circumstances and help you to renew your thoughts.
