The Beautiful Mind

Hello everyone,

Today’s write-up is a continuation of my last write-up. It is a kind of emphasis on things which I consider important to take note of. Ephesians 4:23 says, “…let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes.” NLT. Those born of God are expected to constantly renew and examine their thoughts and attitudes by the Spirit, why is this important? It is important in order to receive the beautiful mind. So, what is the beautiful mind?

The beautiful mind unlike any other is a mind where doubt, fear, unbelief, and lies of the devil cannot penetrate. The mind we were born with was a mind that the lies of the devil had taken over, full of unbelief, doubt, and fear. Jesus through His resurrection from the grave has brought a brand new life, but all we need to do to gain access to this new life is to believe this new life, (ref.: John 3:16). Jesus did not only offer us a brand new life, He has given us the beautiful mind, which is His mind.

The new life Jesus has offered us is the life which is above every sickness, diseases, infirmities, curses, death, depression and every oppression of the devil. This new life is full of perfect health, wealth, the life of God, joy, patience, peace of mind, gentleness, goodness, kindness, self-control, faith and love. This life is not just any life, it is the life of Christ Jesus; this life is Jesus Himself, and for us to always know that we have His life, He has given us His mind, (ref.:1 Corinthians 2:16), all these and more is the full package which Jesus has offered us. All we need to do is just to believe. As we believe in His grace which He has offered us, then we need to work out salvation in fear and trembling, Apostle said in Philippians 2:12-13. In verse 13 he said, “Be energetic in your life of salvation, reverent and sensitive before God. That energy is God’s energy deep within you, God himself willing and working at what will give him the most pleasure.” MSG.; also, as I said at the beginning, we are to examine ourselves daily, in so doing we establish the new life and the beautiful mind we have received—Jesus.

As we live this new life and operate using the beautiful mind of Christ which we have received, we would then clear to us that, sickness, diseases, poverty and every oppression of devil had been a lie all the while, because God has delivered us from of the kingdom and power of darkness to the kingdom of His dear Son—Jesus, (ref.: Colossians 1:13).

The beautiful mind is the truth which is the mind of Christ, the devil keeps broadcasting lies, so in order not to fall prey, focus on the truth which you have received, keep studying the truth every day to yourself, and to do that, Apostle Paul said in Philippians 4:8, “Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.”

Do not be deceived the devil comes to kill, steal, and destroy. He is not and would never be your friend, he wants to see your downfall, with the beautiful mind in you he can do nothing.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
