Remove and Replace Principle

by Rev. Jeremiah Cheung

Today, we’ll be learning a principle called the “Remove and Replace Principle.” Here is a cup filled with filthy water. If I want a cup with clean water in it, I will have to first throw out the filthy water, then pour clean water into it. This is the “Remove and Replace” Principle. We need to remove what is bad, unclean, and negative, and Replace them with that such is good, clean, and positive. In our minds, there are a lot of bad thoughts which must first be removed before the good thoughts can take their place.

1. Remove Negative Thoughts and Replace with Positive Thoughts

2. Remove Fearful Thoughts and Replace with Courageous Thoughts

3. Remove Thoughts of Discontent and Replace with Thankful Thoughts

4. Remove Critical Thoughts and Replace with Thoughts of Praise
