Mental clutter is anything with which you crowd your
mental processes in such a way that your mind becomes a maze in which you
always wander in circles to get anything you need. This can be a real burden on
your mental processes as the strain of filtering out what you do not need
affects you negatively. Additionally, mental clutter is mental garbage, a great
tool with which the enemy cages the understanding of people in order to foster
ignorance so that they do not ever receive the required wisdom and
understanding to deal with challenges. They are therefore mentally caged and
stuck, with their mental situation impacting negatively on their spiritual,
physical and financial situations. Even when there is knowledge, your
understanding is limited and even when it appears that you are gaining
understanding, the enemy tries to clutter your mental processes with
irrelevancies just so that you do not gain understanding to do what you have to
do to achieve divine purpose and freedom. The earlier you get rid of mental
clutter and further restrain yourself from accumulating mental clutter, the
better for you as you will have a more positive outlook to life.
One way of getting rid of mental clutter is to
always allow the Holy Spirit free rein in your mental processes. This is
because the Holy Spirit knows best what you need and what your mental processes
can positively accommodate. Therefore, do not crowd God out of your thoughts by
ignoring the Holy Spirit and focusing on what your flesh desires to do with
your mental processes. When you crowd God out of your thoughts, you keep the
Holy Spirit out of your mental processes thereby giving your imagination free
rein to veer off in all directions without the necessary guidance of the Holy
Spirit. As your imagination goes gaga, it gathers every possible debris that
may not be useful to you for processing and storage and without the Holy Spirit
to filter off the debris you do not need, your mental processes become
cluttered. The more clutter you have, the more difficult it is to access
pertinent and positive information which you require to be successful. For
instance, when you allow your imagination free rein, you are likely to dig up
the filth of past hurts which you may not want to give up; and as you
constantly reflect on such filth, you are likely to keep contemplating vengeance,
stewing in refusal to forgive as well as its attendant bitter streams which do not bring
clean water. As you clog your mental processes with such filth, creativity and
the power of positive thinking becomes a distant ray of light in a dark
starless sky.
Therefore, be spiritually and mentally conscious of
God at all times. Let your spiritual activities as well as mental processes be
centered on God, His word, His love, precious and faithful promises to you.
Beloved, God loves you, is faithful and will always take care of you beyond
your wildest imagination. Please see Ephesians Chapter 3 verse 20. Allow to
stay and reign in your heart, thoughts and imagination, the entire gamut of
your mental processes; only the word of God, the sure promises of God concerning
you as well as His ways which lead to everlasting life. Discard every lie from
the pit of hell through whoever chooses to be the mouthpiece of the devil.
Reject every foul talk by the enemy and his cohorts which give the impression
that you are a failure. The truth is that you are a success story because God
created you to succeed and is determined to make you succeed against all odds
not by might nor by power but by His Spirit. Please read Zechariah Chapter 4
verses 1 to 7. Therefore focus on God and His word and you will always succeed
way above what you even think or ask of thereby bringing your enemies to shame.
Please read Joshua Chapter 1 verses 7 to 8, Colossians Chapter 3 verses 16 to
17.
