In our last episode of this series, lets look into the mind of Jesus as it pertains to thankfulness. Was Jesus a thankful person? Lets look into the supernatural power of thanksgiving. There are some very powerful benefits to being a thankful person, lets talk about it. 

The Mind Pt 13 Let the Bible be your brain.

In our series on the mind, how can we combat the flood of thoughts coming into our minds. We know the devil likes to use thoughts, ideas and suggestions to get us to question God. How do we answer these questions? Allow the Bible to be your brain. Lets talk about it. 

The Mind Pt 12 The wounded mind.

In our series on the mind, lets identify some roots so that we may change the fruits. What has taken place in you where you have been sinned against or where you have sinned and it has caused a scar in your mind? We must begin to identify the root issues so we can begin to believe God to heal our minds. Paul talked about this very thing when he said, "Why do I always do the things I do not want to do but cannot seem to do the things I know I should do?" Lets talk about it. 

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.
