Pastor Caspar's Commentaries - Enjoy Your Neuroplasticity

As every thought must travel a path of faith or fear in your body, mind, spirit and soul. Why listen to anything the Devil (who is the father of lies) has to say? 
Papa God designed our brains with the amazing ability to reorganise itself throughout our lifetime here on earth.

Neuroplasticity (neuro” meaning brain and “plasticity” meaning changeability) allows the neurons or the (nerve cells) in your brain to compensate for any problems it is dealing with. Your brain is constantly laying down new pathways based on your thoughts and experiences.

Neurons that fire together, get wire together. A neuron is a brain cell, and when brain cells get activated at the same time by something you see or hear or smell or whatsoever you are experiencing, they release chemicals that help strengthen the connection between those neurons. 

That can be for good or bad. For example, when you eat something delicious, your brain releases dopamine, a chemical that makes you feel glad all over. If you hug someone you really care about, your brain releases a chemical called oxytocin, that helps you bond with other people and animals. 
One of my neighbors often gives my horse Mr. Bob an apple or carrot when we ride by her farm. My horse’s brain has now obliviously built pathways connecting my neighbour with feeling happy and loved. He will even try to pull me to go off the trail to go visit her farm. How much more do people make such connections then as we process information and experiences daily?

It appear all to obvious now that the devil’s plan is to use people who will passively receive his lies and merge poisonous thoughts as if they were their own thoughts. If the devil can keep you thinking poisonous thoughts he understands that through the working of neuroplasticity he can then attack your body as those poisonous thoughts get rooted down into your brain. Just as easily as if the devil was actually able to solder poisonous wiring into your brain. Because the devils lies will have a negative affect on your mind, spirit, soul and body and overall well being. 

You see all the devil can really do is try and convince you of his lies. The same way he tried to tempt the Lord Jesus/Yeshua when he misquoted Scripture to him. Another good reason to memorise and know some Scripture so you can quote the Gospel truth back in such times as needed. The good news here is neuroplasticity works both ways. That means that any damage from ungodly thinking to the brain can be undone when someone changes they way they think (Repents) before the Lord and gets on the narrow pathway to holiness with Christ. Unhealthy behaviours will then become healthy behaviours. 

Fight back overcomers, trust Papa God for every detail and stay in faith! Because “All”, things are possible with God! I pray the Lord’s supernatural peace, healing, provision and protection cover you always with oceans of agape love in the almighty name of Jesus/Yeshua!
