We're surrounded each and every day by temptations.

But Pastor Greg Laurie says, we can decide if they influence our thoughts and actions.

You are the air traffic controller of your mind. You decide what plane's going to land, right?

This is coming in, that isn't coming in. That's why we're told over in 2 Corinthians 10,

take every thought captive and make it obedient to Christ.

Because here's the thing, if you give the devil an inch, he will take a mile.

This is the day when the lost are found. This is the day for a moment again.

Amazing grace, I'll sleep the strong.

But can you get along the edge of the sea now?

This is the day the truth will all be good.

If we saw a thought, we'll reap an action.

So an action, reap a habit.

So a habit, reap a character. So a character, reap a destiny.

We need to give some thought to our thoughts.

Today on a new beginning, Pastor Greg Laurie continues our studies in the book of Niamaya.

They faced great opposition.

And we'll blame some great lessons on how they responded.
