We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 2 Cor. 10:5.niv:
 
The KJV. is my favorite translationfor 2 Cor 10:5
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
This portion of scripture tells us that it is possible to overcome sinful and negative thoughts in The Christian life. We surrender them to Christ. We don't entertain the thought but immediately say something like "Lord, this thought is not acceptable and is causing me dis-comfort so I surrender this thought to you."
Many of us enjoy sexual thoughts but they are harmful to our Christ-like walk.
Do not entertain any thought that would be dis-approved by God.
This would include dreams as well.
 

It is written that the battle is in the mind, not against flesh and blood but against powers and principalities. (Eph 6:10-18)  If you do not control your mind something or someone else will.  (Ro 8:5-9;12:1-2)  Galilean Pastors

Paul  in Php 4:8 gives a guideline of what we are to do with our thoughts, and how we are to apply them to our lives, causing results--positive results--that the Lord can and will use.  “Finally, brothers, 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.”  Take captive every thought and you will be free to serve God with all your heart and all your mind.
