The Mind Pt 11 Suspicious minds.

In our series on the mind, lets look into those who are operating out of suspicion, judgment and criticism. We are all subject to this at one point or another, but we need to recognize the seriousness of this issue. Its not simply having an opinion about someone else, but rather a very dangerous place to put yourself in. You are going to open yourselves up for some major troubles and kill any witness you may have had for Jesus. 

The Mind Pt 10 Trust.

In our series on the mind, we are going to have to learn to fully trust God. No, not just in the good times, but what of the times when we have to admit that we just have no idea what to do? Thats when we have to cast those cares upon Him for He cares for you. Its not easy, but youll be glad you did. Lets talk about it. 

The Mind Pt 9 Have a bird brain!

In our series on the Mind, we are learning biblical principles on how to gain control of our thought life. In Matthew 6, Jesus begins a conversation on how to control your thoughts. The overall idea is, Have a bird brain! Lets talk about it. 

The Mind Pt 8 Double Trouble: Doubt and Unbelief

In our series, The Mind, what of doubt and unbelief? If you are like me, I have always heard these two mentioned together. "So and so has doubt and unbelief." Maybe, but maybe not! These two can work together but are actually two separate things. Doubt can be cured by finding information (Scriptures) but unbelief, leads to disobedience and is more of a relationship issue than informational. Lets talk about it. 

The Mind Pt 7 Mobilize, not rationalize.

In our series, The Mind, its going to be so important to get into your Bible and get the mind of Christ. When we do not have biblical knowledge, we begin to rationalize based off natural experience. In doing that, we will most often, talk ourselves right out of a miracle because we do not have any references to pull from that make any sense. Nothing in the natural would explain a miracle, so we would then say, "Well that doesn't make any sense." Faith doesn't make sense, faith makes moves! 

The Mind Pt 6 Take out the garbage.

In our series on the mind, we have come to recognize how to take new thoughts captive, but what of the old ones sitting in there from the past? Its these old thoughts that seem to be the issue in peoples lives. We have stacked good, Godly thoughts on top of old garbage thoughts because we never really took out the garbage. Eventually this will lead to stinking thinking. Lets take out the garbage today.  

The Mind Pt 5 Train that brain!

In our series, The Mind, lets look into what to do when things just do not seem to go the way I THOUGHT they should go. What do I do? Its never a natural move, to think the way God thinks, you will have to train your brain to work with, not against the thoughts of God. How do you do it? Lets talk about it. 

The Mind Pt 4. Think about what you are thinking about!

In our series, The Mind, we have started to see that life issues, troubles, hurts etc...are always going to be there, but its how you think about those issues, thats what is going to cause change in your life. Taking thoughts captive. 6000 thoughts a day, so how many of those thoughts are Bible? We need to begin to think about what we are thinking about. lets talk about it. 

The Mind Pt 3 It takes time.

In our series, The Mind, we are recognizing that we must begin to take thoughts captive but, for many, we get discouraged when old thoughts continue to reappear. Its OK. It takes time. lets talk about that. 

The Mind. Change it!

We have to admit we have not been doing a very good job on taking thoughts captive, but the good news is, God is faithful, and today, you can start! The Bible says that thoughts produce fruit in our lives. So today we have to, its a must, to begin to change your mind. Lets talk about it.
