- To empower your thoughts, you need to cultivate a "grid" for the kind of thoughts you will focus on and welcome in your life. Most people are aware of all the negative and disempowering thoughts they have, but don't know how to cultivate powerful ones.
In this video, I want to Philippians 4:8 as a gauge for developing an overcoming thought life.
What are the thoughts we should focus our attention on?
What do these thoughts even mean?
What does it look like to practice thinking on these things?
Philippians 4:8-9 (NKJV) 8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-meditate on these things. 9 The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.

This right here truly helped me to begin my journey out of depression and anxiety, transforming my mind. Thank God for Jesus! I actually wrote a song about this very scripture. I promise you people, focus on this scripture and God will transform your mind out of darkness.
Amen! I'll check out your music.
Yes! I agree. This is probably my favorite scripture.
Just what I needed today. I was looking for a song I used to sing in teen choir in the mid 70's and thought I would hear the song. But God! Knew better and blessed me with your message of defining the scripture of the song. Thank you for your message posted and I THANK GOD for He knows what I needed before I sing the song!
PLEASE CONTINUE TO SHARE YOUR TRUTH!!!!
Mark! You are truly a Godsend. I’m about to go visit my BFF Mama who has dementia. She has in home care & it’s a very grace-needed situation. I found myself dreading the visit(s). But this message is a game-changer! THANK YOU for your obedience & for sharing your journey. God bless you & yours richly. You are making such a difference in the Body of Christ...and in this life of mine!❤️
THANK YOU MARK your videos help remember who I am in Christ
You are amazing. I just love listening to your videos. We all need this information so much! Thank you for doing this. Audio books by you would be awesome. The love and care in your manner and voice is soothing. People under condemnation a lot of the time need someone like you to listen to. It makes us feel that change is possible instead of feeling bad about ourselves.

Thank you Mark this was awesome.
You are hearing the same message so many other ministers are hearing from Holy Spirit on renewing our minds and walking in love...and holiness by his Grace and keeping our hearts tender and pure
This talk was..... BRILLIANT! By far the best explanation (IMHO) of these verses on this ENTIRE PLATFORM. Thank you so much, what a marvelous gift of teaching that the Lord has annointed you with. Thank you for stepping up to your calling and helping those of us who desire God more than anything, yet, who are struggling and need strength along our path. So, thank you! 🙏
I’ve been praying for a quiet mind for awhile now. Thank you for this.

I love the message of spreading encouragement and setting a diet of good news.
Father God, thank you that I always can look up to you! Lord, I pray and bind the thoughts about myself and especially my work capabilities will be more positive and encouraging at all times while binding to hell to focus more on one's weaknesses than one's strengths, binding as well the thoughts of members of my family, friends, colleagues, neighbours, acquitances, opponents and the body of Christ to be positive and encouraging towards oneself while binding to hell focusing more on one's weaknesses instead of strengths, binding to hell every unequal yoke and common share with those whose thoughts about oneself and one's abilities are not positive and encouraging while lacking to focus more on one's strengths than weaknesses, in accordance with this word and philippians 4:8, 2 corinthians 6:14-18 in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah, thank you God ❤!

Thank you so much for this video!!
Your teaching is so profound yet very practical making it easy to understand AND apply! I’m so greatful that I came across your page
Hello, when i thought on the word True, i used it to watch documentaries, tragic but true documentaries. So i continue to watch true but tragic documentaries like plane crashes, underwater cave tragedies and that sort of entertainment because they're true stories. But i have to know those shows are making me anxious and depressed. So i need to redefine the word True. My other problem is the pursuit of not allowing my brain to bounce everywhere at once. One day im attentive the things of God ... the next day im flabbergasted because i cant find that peace i had yesterday...i cant seem to settle myself. Oh help me Holy Spirit. Cause me to incline my heart to Thy testimonies and not to covetousness (of vain things ).
Good points. Good teaching. Perhaps it could’ve been condensed to half the time Minor point: you don’t set a compass and you don’t set a gauge.
I'm calling it out: i thank you for sharing your marinations. They taste good. I needed this. Thank you.
THANK YOU!!!
Blessed. Thank you
Thank you for the encouragement! God bless you
Thank you!
Came for a friend, staying for myself. Subbinggg.
Thank youuuu!
Thank you so much!
Yes!
This is excellent ❣️
This a really encouraging and insightful video. Thank you Senor Mark!
This was great!
Thank you for sharing. Thank you Jesus.
Thank you for sharing this nugget of gold.❤
Thanks!
I need to apply this to my time with the Lord. I have been feeling so rushed lately that I dont seem to keep my focus much. My mind wanders
Thank you Mark for such a thorough detailed explanation of Phillipan's 4:8...l now am mentally more equipped to deliberately choose God's ways if thinking ☝️...l am blessed ✝️🙏😁
Well Done 🙌🏽 Thank You, Brother 💞
This is POWERFUL and life changing for me. Thank you Mark, btw my name is Mark.
Respect. Direct from the word..non churchy clear analysis...
EXCELLENT PRESENTATION!!!
Woww, just yesterday I had a conversation with someone about this!
Coming out of religious legalism this can be a challenge. If you find yourself obsessed or triggered by this. Stop. Breath. Ask yourself what is really going on. Know that God loves you and that you are just detoxing
Okay I hear what you say but how would I apply one of these things to a thought about poor choices
What does it mean to set your grid?
This is an EXCELLENT video thank God for your amazing and super helpful content! Thank you keep sharing this extremely helpful! 🙏🏾💯
Nice 12.11.21
I NEED TO WRITE IN MY GRATITUDE JOURNAL EVERY DAY. NO MATTER HOW I FEEL.
It could be just a sentence too, it doesn't have to be extensive. I wish you well.
Am I hearing right that Mark ask us to think 1 of 8? If so i know which 1 of 8 i shoupd be focusing on. And... oh Lord my heart is like jumping in joy.. what am i feeling right now? Quite strange, but i know it is in my heart. Hello from Bangkok.
“Focus (attention) muscle”!
this is my main struggle............

It seems Song of Solomon contradicts the interpretation of purity that is spoken of here. It seems like purity is equated with chastity, which is equated with celibacy, which is equated with cutting off of anything that would generate or encourage a desire of sexual nature in either oneself or in others. I don't think that extreme is necessary here. Lust is not sexual. Lust is inordinate desire, not subject to God's will. Lust is disordered craving for that which is evil. It is wise to be careful about how one teaches these things, lest the world lay claim to the truth and say it is of evil and not of God, and we are left ashamed of the truth instead of defenders of the truth.
Gods Word says to “take every thought captive”. . .!
BE THE THERMOSTAT!!!! NOT THE THERMOMETER!!!! IN YOUR LIFE!!!!
