"Be well balanced (temperate , sober of mind), be vigilant {and} cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon {and} devour." (1 Peter 5:8).
Most of us believers are too lax with monitoring the traffic inflow and outflow of our thoughts, yet thoughts determine our mentality[ Proverbs 23:7] and our mentality creates our realities. David had the mentality of a Cat when he faced a giant with the mentality of a rat, physical size was not the issue, but mental size was. The rest of the Children of God[Psalm 82:6] were small cats, that they were so small in their thougts such that they thought of themselves as rats. No matter how big a rat may be it is will always be cat-food. Start weeding your mind of every ratlike thinking and remember it is you who is a devourer, an all consuming fire of whatever is unlovely.. ..every situation is an opportunit y for you to recreate the good life by turning within[Luk e17:21], and imagining a better life as though it has happened[M ark11:23]. Stop thing like a rat, ratlike thoughts attract roaring lions.
