I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Psalm 16:8
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8
Or for as he thinks within himself, so he is. Proverbs 23:7
fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2
God is the source of positive thinking, but our hope is in him. We fix our eyes on him at always. At the same time he is asking us to not dwell on the negative, but instead to think about good and true things. Jesus endured the cross because of the joy set before him. There is darkness all around us. God tells us, "Don't look at the darkness. Look at me and remember the promises I give you."
