Luke 5:22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts? 23 Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk’?
Jesus doesn't just watch us, or even listen to us. He knows our thoughts. And our thoughts tend to run in one of two directions...we either reason in an isolated way, limiting our logic to the corners of our minds and hearts...or we take our thoughts and hold them up to the Lord. When we allow His light into our thoughts, the shadows, crooked logic and shallowness of our limited perspective are broadened. At that point He isn't just the thought reader...He's the thought communicator (and His perspective is eternal truth).
2 Corinthians 10:4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ
