AUG. 27 – THE STATE OF YOUR MIND DETERMINES THE STATE OF YOUR LIFE

“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus…”

PHILIPPIANS 2:5

It is said, “A thought will reap an action, an action will reap a habit, a habit will reap a character and a character will reap a destiny”. Which means that every action is a direct product of a thought. And so, you behave the way you do because of the state of your mind. Apostle Paul said, “And be not conform to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” (Rom. 12:2). Why must you renew your mind? …. because God cannot do it for you. If there is anything about you God cannot change, then it is the way you think. That is why He says, “Come now, and let us reason together” (Isaiah 1:18).

Africa is lagging behind not because we are poor, it is the state of our mind. Your surrounding is looking the way it is because of the state of your mind. When you come to Potter’s City and see the way things are done, it is the state of our mind. The way you think can affect the way you behave “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he” (Prov. 23:7). Every blessing of God in the Bible is not automatic. All the promises of God in the Bible are conditional; there is a part you have to play to secure those blessings. If you truly want to be blessed, then you have to work on your mind. Change the way you think and God will change the way He sees you.

PRAYER:

Pray and ask God to help you align your thoughts on things that bring transformation
