“If you want to defeat your enemy, learn to outthink him. Think about the problem, seek advice, and seek counsel from others. Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war” (Proverbs 20:18). You can listen to the advice and words of more experienced people. You can even seek counsel and good advice through books, CDs and videos. Your knowledge and understanding of history will be one of the greatest sources of counsel.
It is more important to outthink your enemy than to outfight him. Many of us do not pause to think much about anything. We are always on the move and have no time to think deeply about our problems and our battles.
We, as human beings have been able to overcome and defeat wild animals that are bigger and stronger than us. How is that possible? How do we overcome lions? How do we catch them? How do we subdue them? How do we imprison them? The answer is simple: we outthink them! Animals are very predictable. They do the same things all the times. That is why we can catch them. Human beings are superior in their thinking, understanding and planning. We can therefore catch elephants, lions, tigers, snakes and any animal we want to.
When people are in prison, there is not much human interaction so they get to think a lot. This is why many people turn to God when they are in prison! You must create a prison for yourself so you can think your way out of your problems. You can think your way into wisdom, knowledge and revelation of God. That is why Jesus went on retreats.
When you start to think, you will start to win the battles of life.”
