Things to know about our mind
1. Mind is wicked and cunning. Jeremiah 17:9(BBE)
A man’s mind can decide what he will do. But that can cause trouble for him. I do not know anybody except me who can understand the things in a man’s mind. It is bad and sick and nobody can make it better.
2. The mind call also be related to the flesh and that makes it more mature than man himself.....
3. Mind can destroy a man, a good person that we see can be a sinner inside.
4. Its the mind that makes you holy or unrighteous...
Our salvation affect our mind,yet bible tells us to renew it from time to time,that tells us how important mind is.
How can we manage the mind?
Romans 12:2;And let not your behaviour be like that of this world, but be changed and made new in mind, so that by experience you may have knowledge of the good and pleasing and complete purpose of God.
1. Make sure your mind does not become like that of the people of the world....worldly mind is a canal mind, and a mind mind can't see God.
2. Let your mind be fixed on things above where God is, meaning let spiritual and heaven rule your mind, then the mind will be spiritual and perfect.
Col 3:1-2;If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
2 Keep your mind on the higher things, not on the things of earth
Our salvation gives us the ability to control our mind and also put it to training.
(When you read the bible you can also develop these two points i mention)
Instrument of mind management.
1. The word of God( Pslam 119:11 KJV lite).
Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
Reading and meditation in the word of God helps to liberate the heart.
2. You must search for God or desire him delibrately.
3. Learn to speak to your heart/mind.....in prayers because devil needs our mind to over us so you must learn to face in a fight from you heart.
4. Learn to read christian book,it teaches us alot and exposes your mind to knowledge and experience that will help you.
