I went to the Christian bookstore and picked a up a book by Joyce Meyer called, "Battlefield of the Mind".It's an excellent book that I would encourage everyone to check out. The book discusses right and wrong thinking, as well as the fact that the Enemy attacks our minds with all kinds of thoughts.
The following is an excerpt that I found especialy interesting:

Wonderful, I was thinking of picking up that same book myself. There is also a workbook that goes with it to help you in your study. Thanks for posting. PS> the excerpt you mentioned didn't make it onto the post.

Ok Reena, here's the excerpt:
"There was a man who was sick and who was confessing the Word over his body, quoting healing scriptures and believing for his healing to manifest. While doing so, he was intermittenly attacked with thoughts of doubt. After he had gone through a hard time and was beginning to get discouraged, God opened his eyes to the spirit world. This is what he saw: a demon speaking lies to him,telling him that he was not going to get healed and that confessing the Word was not going to work. But he also saw that each time he confessed the Word, light would come out of his mouth like a sword, and the demon would cower and fall backward. As God showed him the vision, the man then understood why it was so important to keep speaking the Word. He saw that he did have faith, which is why the demon was attacking him with doubt."
