If we change what we think about we have a pretty good chance of quitting. If after 90 days we consistently think about 6 new healthy things daily we have increased our odds of quitting massively.
The Bible says to think about things that are true. #1 If you are a Christian, people around you are going to hell. Thinking about this truth should inspire us to work harder to quit. To think about this consider praying several times daily:
“Father, help me to turn from thoughts of _____, and help me to care about souls.”
Second, decide to be positive. Decide to be a shining light. We can either think work/school is going to stink today, or we can think, “I will try to do everything I can to make it good for the people around me today.”
Third, quote a great verse each day. If you stink at memorizing verses simply put them in a file in your phone. Consider memorizing: 1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.”
This verse is truth. Thinking about walking in the Light (Living God’s way) is thinking about truth.
Finally, wisdom is truth. Think about and consider praying several times daily:
“Father, fill me with Your wisdom, and help me to run from wrong places, and thoughts of _____.”
Read Proverbs to learn about wisdom. Additionally, this book is filled with warnings about lust/fornication/adultery. These things lead to other habits. Consider going to war with the.
Wisdom is taking time this weekend to plan a Bible verse to quote for every day next week. Wisdom is planning prayers for every day next week. Wisdom is making the decision to make it a priority to think about things that are true every day next week.
Thinking right leads to right actions which leads to success.
