Our Mind or His?

Summary:

Our Father offers simple solutions to the complex and impossible situations our human mind produces. He opens the door when asked for His solution; the mind of Christ is His provision.

Show Notes:

  • The Lord takes us to a place of utter devastation so that we don’t trust in anything except Him.

  • God saying, “I want to give you a new mind, a new heart, and a new spirit.”

  • Our mind and our emotions are probably the greatest access the enemy has to us. How do we appropriate the mind of Christ?

  • This utter devastation produces within us a broken spirit and a contrite heart which God does not despise.

  • We must come to the place of total trust in Him as He is giving us His mind.

  • We must persist in our putting on the mind of Christ.

  • I wished it happened overnight and it does as much as I can handle.. To me there is a tremendous amount of grace involved.


     

    Quotes:

    • ...the Lord takes you through a place of utter devastation, utter abandonment to anything that you would rely on in yourself. You rely totally on Him.
    • God's saying it's not enough that you just do what you do because you've learned what you've learned. I want to give you a new mind.
    • You have a broken spirit and a contrite heart. And what that does is that opens you up for His solution. And His solution is your initiative. To take the mind of His Son.
    • You've got to come to the end of yourself. That's a principle that applies to so much in our walk with God.
    • He will cover you with His love and His grace and let you come to the end of yourself.
    • Trusting and believing Him, that He will give you His mind.
    • We can only trust what the Lord is speaking to us and bringing that mind and really making Him the Lord of our life. He is the Lord.
    • ...just call out to the Lord and ask Him for His mind or His thinking for His heart…
    • I'm taking my mind, and I'm getting rid of it, and I'm taking His mind.
    • ...God is faithful to His Word. And our persistence in doing what the Lord is showing us to do is truly the answer.

      References:

      Romans 8:5

      For those who are in accord with the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are in accord with the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

      1 Corinthians 2:16

      For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he will instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.

      I Corinthians 15:51-52

       Behold, I am telling you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised b]">[b]imperishable, and we will be changed.

      Psalm 51:17

      The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; A broken and a contrite heart, God, You will not despise.

      Jeremiah 33:3

      Call to Me and I will answer you, and I will tell you great and mighty things, which you do not know.’

      Hebrews 13:5

      Let your conversation be without covetousness ;and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

      Takeaway:

      As God deals with our carnal mind He takes us to a place of utter devastation in our life. This produces within us a broken and contrite spirit as we learn not to trust in anything of ourselves but to put on the mind of Christ and wholly trust in every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.
