WINNING THE WAR IN YOUR MIND: TAKE YOUR MIND BACK

Sunday, June 13, 2021

Have you ever made an irrational decision?  

Why do we do these things?

We have wires that are crossed in our mind.

Somewhere we have bought into a lie. 

Colossians 2:6-7

Notice these words: Rooted - Built up - Established - Abounding.

Colossians 2:8

Notice these words: Cheat - Philosophy - Empty Deceit - Traditions of men - Principles of the world.

Philippians 4:6-9

1. Prayer (requesting)

2. Supplication (persistent asking)

3. Thanksgiving (remembering God’s power in your past)

4.  Meditate (Eastern - empty the mind / Christian  - fill the mind / fix the mind)

Psalms 119:15

Psalms 143:5 

To take your mind back you must identify the wrong thought patterns and then determine to fix it.  

Write it—Think it—Confess it—Believe it

WINNING THE WAR IN YOUR MIND

Sunday, June 6, 2021

Most of life’s battles are won and lost in your mind.  Our lives are always moving in the direction of our strongest thoughts.

Proverbs 23:7

The Word of God and Spirit of God has the ability to transform your mind and renew your thought patterns.

2 Corinthians 10:3-4

Two key words:

1.  Mighty - divine power - (Greek) Dumamis - dynamite - explosive power

2.  Strongholds - walls - (Greek) Ochuroma - Military stronghold - fortress built on a high place

Proverbs 21:22

2 Corinthians 10:5

The Holy Spirit dynamite has the ability to cast down every argument

Take Captive - Capture with a spear or sword.

The sword is the word of God and it is the only offensive weapon we have. It’s time to blow the dust off the Bible and grab hold of that sword and speak the truth of God’s word over the lie of the devil!

FAVOR

You and I can have the favor of God but it requires some action on our part. We have to position ourselves to experience God’s favor.
