What is your inner dialogue? Are you speaking life words that build you up and strengthen your inner man? I love Ephesians 3:16 in the Amplified. It says, “May He grant you out of the rich treasury of His glory to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in the inner man by the (Holy) Spirit (Himself indwelling your inner most being and personality).”

When I was young, my dad built all the houses that we lived in. I so remember the rebar. I would walk in and around these steel sticks that would reinforce the structure. They were firmly set in concrete.

We are God’s building. In 1 Corinthians 3:10 Paul wrote that he had laid the foundation through the gospel. Verse 11 says, “For no other foundation can any man lay than that which is laid, which is Christ Jesus.”

Then he went on to tell them that what they added to the foundation would one day be tried by fire. Our body is supported by a foundation of bones. What we think affects our bones.
