Overcoming the struggle of the mind
Romans 12:2
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
2 Corinthians 10:3-5
For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ…
“We may have a fixed set of genes in our chromosomes, but which of those genes are active and how they are active has a great deal to do with how we think and process our experiences. Our thoughts produce words and behaviors, which in turn stimulate more thinking and choices that build more thoughts in an endless cycle... choices become signals that change our brain and body, so these changes are not dictated by our genes. Our thinking and our subsequent choices become the signal switches for our genes. What's incredible is that genes are dormant until switched on by a signal; they have potential, but they have to be activated to release that potential. They have to be unzipped.”

Change your thinking; shift your destiny.
Identify the ungodly belief patterns that you have.
Replace the ungodly beliefs with godly truth.
Joshua 1:8
This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.
Philippians 4:8
Think about the good: Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Confess the truth that God says about you.
What are the strongholds that you might have?
