How much better would we be prepared to stand against the enemy and not let his schemes have any space in the church? I think if we as a church or as individuals are able to love God wholeheartedly we will see improvement in our mental health, in the outlook we have on life, and in our physical health. The health of our whole body is largely affected by the health of our spirituality and our mind. Our mind has the ability to make us excited about something and therefore give us energy that we didn\u2019t know we had or it has the ability to make us physically sick with nerves or stress. There is a lot of power in our minds and if we can focus that power towards loving God with all of our being, don\u2019t you think God will work in us and through us in great and amazing ways?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe mind is a powerful force. It can enslave us or empower us. It can plunge us into the depths of misery or take us to the heights of ecstasy.
