How Do You Think? – Rhapsody TeeVo Devotional September 10th

(Renew Your Mind To Kingdom Thinking)

TO THE BIBLE: 2 Timothy 3:16 AMPC
“Every Scripture is God-breathed (given by His inspiration) and profitable for instruction, for reproof and conviction of sin, for correction of error and discipline in obedience, [and] for training in righteousness (in holy living, in conformity to God’s will in thought, purpose, and action).”

LET’S TALK
Jenna berates herself daily, her thoughts consumed by her poor family background. She often said things like, “I’ll never amount to anything because of where I come from” and “I was born poor, and I’ll always be poor.”

One Sunday, Jenna received Christ and joined a care group where she was taught the Word. A few months later, Jenna’s thoughts were renewed, and she began to understand the enormity of her divine wealth and inheritance in Christ Jesus.

Our opening verse shows that the Word is able to regulate your mind to think right all the time—to think the Kingdom way.

Someone might say, “You know I’m African, Asian, American, or European, and I think as such.” No! When you’re born again, you’re from God’s kingdom. You’re to think as one from heaven.

The Bible says, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17).

If you want to be successful in Christ Jesus and live the life of the kingdom, you must think like Christ wants you to think.

Romans 12:2 says, “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.”

Walking in God’s Word and having your mind renewed by the Word is the easiest thing for a Christian because the Word is your life.

You were born of the Word (1 Peter 1:23); you have the life of the Word, so it’s easy for your perception, your outlook on life, to be from the Word. It’s easy for you to think and live the kingdom way and have kingdom results.

Romans 12:2 NIV; 2 Corinthians 5:17; 1 Timothy 4:15

Speak:
The Word of God is my life; it regulates my mind to think and live the Kingdom way and have Kingdom results. As I continually meditate on the Word, my mind is programmed to produce victories and excellence. Glory to God!
