QUESTIONS SERIES: How do we know if a thought comes from within ourselves or from God?

We need to check our thoughts against what the Bible teaches on that issue or subject. Do our thoughts match up with God’s thoughts? Perhaps a harder thing to do is to submit to whatever the Bible says – even if we don’t agree with it at first. That’s an issue of pride. If we do submit to God on what he says and wants us to do, we’ll experience much more peace in our lives.
