The Mind

This Sunday I preached the first sermon in the series called BATTLE OF THE MINDS - how our carnal mind is at war with our spiritual mind, the Mind of Christ. I have battled in this area for years so feel I have a lot of personal experience & victories to share. Also I long to see people in our congregation free from all sorts of things that hold them in bondage & I firmly believe that dealing with the carnal mind is a strong step in the right direction for all of us.

Here are 7 steps to a free mind:
1.Renew your mind - Romans 12:2
2.Control your thoughts - Romans 8:5
3.Take one step at a time - Proverbs 23:7a
4.Don’t give up - Galatians 6:9
5.Be positive - 1 Peter 3:15
6.Think about what you think about - Colossians 3:2
7.Know your enemy - John 10:10

Right thinking can...
Bring health to your body - Proverbs 4:20-22
and
Bring prosperity to your life - Psalm 1:2-3

Can you believe how powerful this stuff is!!!

Have a listen to the full message here if you like, I really hope there is a gem in there for you.

    "Think about what you think about" ... I like that. This was a really good post. I will be focusing some time on my blog in regards to depression among christians. I have a very close friend who lost her husband to suicide after battling with bipolar. He was a strong believer, a missionary in fact, and led so many people to Christ. His wife, Natalie, has a heart and passion for mental health awareness among our churches. She will be posting for me soon on this topic. I really enjoyed this post. Thank you.
