Pulling Down

Listen to the Podcast

Good morning!

Here is today's communion meditation.

Recently my kids had a curtain up in one of our doorways in the house. The curtain wasn't secured very welll, and if they would give it a small tug it would pull down and fall to the floor. 

One day when the curtain fell it reminded me of 2 Corinthians 10:5 which says, "And we pull down reasonings and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and we take all minds prisoner to the obedience of The Messiah."

Some versions translate this as pull down or cast down ideas/imaginations/arguments and high things that exalt themselves against God. About this time I also came across verses in Numbers and Deuteronomy where God told the people to pull down and demolish, the high places of their enemies. 

I think something God was showing me is that these imaginations or thoughts can be pulled down as easily as the curtain in our doorframe. 

In today's communion we are asking God to help us identify things that need to be pulled down and to pull them down the way he desires. 

Today's Health and Fitness Tip

There are a lot of ideas in the world of health and fitness that need to be pulled down. The world promotes the harsh treatment of the body but wisdom that comes from above is gentle. 

I am praying for you.

P.S. Remember the Master is with you, he loves you, and nothing is impossible for him.
