It's All in Your Mind can be summed up in one sentence which is: We are what we think. Our thinking determines the kind of life we will live--good or bad, positive or negative, success or defeat. Drawing from Proverbs 23:7: "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he," Dr. Benjamin gives the answer to most, if not all, of life's problems, concerns, worries and joys.

According to Dr. Benjamin, "Sin is the cause of it all...The sin battle is a never ending battle. The battle is constant but in order for us to win, we have to change the way we think. Because once sin takes control of our minds, our bodies will follow. The battle is won or lost in the mind." In other words, right thinking produces right results and wrong thinking produces wrong results.

Once we accept the fact that the battlefield of life is in our minds, and if we want to enjoy a life of peace, it all boils down to this: we have to retrain our minds to think right; we have to train our children from an early age to think right. We have to meditate upon and apply Philippians 4:8 which states: "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."

It is vital that we "think about what we are thinking" because this will revolutionize us and the world around us.
