RETRAIN YOUR MIND – NEW Motivational Video (very powerful)
the mind of Christ look again with me at
verse number 5 let this mind be in you
which was also in Christ Jesus ladies
and gentlemen you do not need the mind
of Socrates or Aristotle or Plato or
Zeno of Zoroaster or any of the great
thinkers or philosophers of yesteryear
you need I need we need the mind of
Christ let this mind be in you which was
also in Christ Jesus how can I tell you
my friend that when you have the mind of
Christ you have the mind of God I love
to quote Jesus he said in John chapter
10 and verse 30 I and the father are one
can you imagine ladies and gentlemen
when you have the mind of Christ you
have the mind of God can you imagine
that your finite mind with all of its
limitations can contain an embrace the
mind of the infinite God the God of
creation the God of the covenants the
god of the consummation of all things
omnipotent omniscient omnipresent the
God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob the God
and father of our Lord Jesus Christ his
mind in you
and in me let this mind be in you which
was also in Christ Jesus
Christianity involves the total man body
soul and spirit let me give you Paul’s
commentary on that from first
Thessalonians Factor chapter 5 and verse
23 he said am the very God of peace
sanctify you wholly and I pray God your
whole spirit and soul and body be
preserved blameless under the coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ now it is obvious
that your body is here your filling up
18 20 maybe 30 inches of space some of
you I trust that your heart is here that
you’re communicating heart-to-heart with
a God of the universe but gonna ask you
what about your mind where is your mind
someone has said that the mind is the
greatest trap on earth even as I speak
some of you are in Hawaii on your
vacation in July or in Florida or some
exotic country of Europe where is your
mind yeah I get person have you
surrendered your mind to God look again
at verse number 5 let this mind be in
you which was also in Christ Jesus now
when you leave church today why would
your mind be when you go to work
tomorrow school tomorrow
where will your mind me when you get
alone with yourself nobody there but you
what will you be thinking about
do you know what the wise man said in
proverbs 23:7 as he thinketh in his
heart so is he
isin to tell you that your thoughts will
become your deeds there’s a Chinese
proverb that reads so thought Reaper
deed so indeed Reaper habit so habit
Reaper character so a character reap a
destiny
it all begins with a thought watch your
thoughts keep them strong high resolve
thinks no wrong what your thoughts keep
them clear perfect love cast out fear
what your thoughts keep them right faith
and wisdom bring you light what your
thoughts keep them true look to God
he’ll govern you Marcus Aurelius said
our lives are what our thoughts make
them now this doesn’t deflate your ego
what I’m compelled to tell you are not
what you think you are but what you
think you are a wise man once said I
don’t remember it was may have been me
your mind is only as strong as its
weakest think here’s something to think
about
fans are like parachutes they work only
one over here some sage advice Mental
Floss each day it helps prevent truth
decay listen again to the words of the
Apostle in verse 5 let this mind be in
you which was also in Christ Jesus in
other words use your mind I believe this
is what Paul meant use your mind to
think about the same things that Jesus
thought about did I hear someone asked
will preacher what did Jesus think about
well I’m glad you asked
you’re gonna question we got answers
rather they inspired in some
encyclopedia of God’s truth here’s the
answer first Jesus thought about doing
God’s business
did you realize ladies and gentlemen
that God’s business is priority number
one jesus said in Chicago quoting Jesus
again you note on our love to quote
Jesus he said in John 9 for I must work
the works of him that sent me while it
is day or the night coming
no man can work i admonish you my friend
