Thoughts come to us.
Some thoughts are from our own flesh and those things taught by men of this world.
Some thoughts are from devils who would like to destroy us and will destroy us if we allow him to do so.
John 10:10 Jesus says: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
I Peter 5:8-9 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith,
James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
And some thoughts are sent to our minds by God by HIS Holy Spirit!
God helps us and restores us to His way and leads us to salvation through HIS Word.
We follow what God says to us.

The devil sends negative thoughts to our mind and will destroy us if we allow him to do so.
The devil especially hates the Word of God and will often condemn you when you speak to others telling them of scriptures or of that which God has done in your life.
Romans 8:33-34 Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth.
Who is he that condemneth?
Who is he that condemneth?
The devil condemns us by bringing destructive thoughts to our mind, especially when we are trying to follow God or do the work of God.

We must pay attention and deal with each destructive thought in a spiritual way, through turning to God in prayer and asking God to confirm us and establish us again in what HE wants us to do or say.
Thus the apostle Paul instructs:
2 Corinthians 10:3-5
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
5 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 (The Word);
It is critical for us to understand how to take thoughts captive ... and for us to take each thought captive to bring that thought into agreement with The Word of God, the Holy Bible.
