THE POWER OF THOUGHTS IN YOUR MIND
To do anything the mind must be willing!
1chronicles 28:9-10 “And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.
10Take heed now; for the LORD hath chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do it”.
Where is your mind?
Though your body is visible, your mind travels constantly
Where your treasure is, therein also your mind will be.
Train your mind to be free of self limitations
1Chronicles 17:2 “Then Nathan said unto David, Do all that is in thine heart; for God is with thee”.
Attacks of the mind will come but God is faithful.
Psalms 94:19 “In the multitude of my thoughts within me thy comforts delight my soul”.
Your mind can be trained to become a Discerning mind
Psalms 119:169 “Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding according to thy word”.
Appreciate a good mind when you see one
Proverbs 12:8 “A man shall be commended according to his wisdom: but he that is of a perverse heart shall be despised”.
Proverbs 16:23 “The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips”. -
From the wise mind proceeds creativity
Do you have the mind of Christ?
1Co 2
1 And I, brethren, when I came unto you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 6 We speak wisdom, however, among them that are fullgrown: yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nought: 7 but we speak God's wisdom in a mystery,[ even] the[ wisdom] that hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds unto our glory: 8 which none of the rulers of this world hath known: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory: 9 but as it is written, Things which eye saw not, and ear heard not, And[ which] entered not into the heart of man, Whatsoever things God prepared for them that love him. 10 But unto us God revealed[ them] through the Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 11 For who among men knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of the man, which is in him? even so the things of God none knoweth, save the Spirit of God. 12 But we received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God; that we might know the things that were freely given to us of God. 13 Which things also we speak, not in words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Spirit teacheth; combining spiritual things with spiritual[ words]. 14 Now the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; and he cannot know them, because they are spiritually judged. 15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, and he himself is judged of no man. 16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
