Philippians 4
π₯π₯π₯
We learn to deliberately turn away from the evil and make ourselves think on the "good".
We know the evil is out there. We do not bury our heads in the sand. We are even aware of what they are doing today. But we do not let ourselves fret over them, and complain as many do. We do not enjoy the sensations of the new evils as
some do. Instead we force ourselves to think on the good that is
coming though God and Jesus. We think on that which God has prepared
for us, the new Jerusalem wherein dwelleth righteousness, where there is
no pain, no sorrow, no unrighteousness. Where we have new bodies,
spiritual bodies and there is no physical disease.
Revelation 21
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and HE will dwell with them, and they shall be HIS people, and God HIMSELF shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And HE that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new.

2 Peter 3
10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which
the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall
melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein
shall be burned up.
13 Nevertheless we, according to HIS promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.
We must work to make our minds focus on those things that are pure, lovely, true, just, of good report.
And we must focus on all the good things God has given us to enjoy on this present earth and enjoy those things!
For enjoying those good things can turn our thinking from evil. It is
one of the ways of escape that God has given to HIS people during these
present evil times.
