“Gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ” (1 Peter 1:13).
There is much loose thinking on the part of Christians, not always evil thoughts, but also thoughts that are vain and useless. Thus God calls upon His redeemed children to “gird up the loins of your mind,” “casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.” Outward life is the result of our inward thinking, and our heavenly Father desires that we “be not conformed to this world: but be … transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect will of God.” It is true of all of us that “as he thinketh in his heart, so is he.” It is not humanly possible to control our thought life; it must be by God’s grace and power. The psalmist knew the secret when he said, “I hate vain thoughts: but Thy law do I love.” It is as we fill our hearts and minds with God’s Word and walk in obedience to it that we can “gird up the loins of your mind” and “set your affection on things above.”
Thoughts of righteousness, thoughts of peace,
Thoughts that glorify our Lord,
Thoughts taken captive by His grace,
Thoughts that are molded by God’s Word.
