Tag: What the Bible says about our minds

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-16-20

Romans 12:2 (NKJV) 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

When we become a believer, by accepting Jesus Christ as our Savior, our old being must be transformed. The old man will not do any longer.

We have to begin to pick up godly traits, from that moment on. We are truly a new creation. However, we have to learn, grow and allow this transformation to take place in our heart and in our mind!

Oh boy, will our mind fight back at times. Just remember, if it is fighting us when it comes to doing what is right, we need to be that much stronger to say no.

It will show us the rebellion it has at times, even toward what God wants.

God can not and will not do it for us. He wants us to care for it as needed, and put it in line with His will.

Romans 8:6 (NKJV) 6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

As a Christian, if we do not allow this transformation to take place, we will live in a carnal state of mind and it will bring destruction to God’s will for us.

Carnal  thinking should never dominate over the leading of the Holy Spirit.

If we let Him transform our minds, we will walk according to His will, and it will bring life and peace to our spirit man.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-21-17

Matthew 11:29 (NKJV) 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Sometimes our minds are our worst enemy. We think about things that might happen and then our thoughts run away from us. And this causes us to worry about things that we have no control over.

Sometimes we can get caught up in our emotions. It’s easy to do. Unfortunately, that’s the worst thing we can do.

God created us to have emotions! It’s part of His design. But He doesn’t want us to let our emotions control us. And He doesn’t want us to live based on our emotions. If we do live that way, our lives will be like a rollercoaster, up one day and down the next, based on how we feel.

God wants us to learn to rely 100% on Him for everything we need each and every day. It takes time for us to learn this. It’s a lifelong learning process!

Matthew 4:4 (NKJV) 4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’”

That’s why it’s critical that we spend time in His word. Because as it gets into us, we learn to rely on it and pull it up from within our spirit when we need it.

The Holy Spirit is faithful to remind us of the things we have studied and learned from His word, so it’s important that we know the Word and let it become a part of who we are.

Take one day at a time. Spend time in His word. Let it become a part of who we are. And as we grow and learn to depend on Him, our emotions will no longer control our lives.
