11-APRIL-2025 - RENEW YOUR MIND
THE MAIN THEME: CHANGING YOUR WORLD
TITLE: RENEW YOUR MIND
Our bible verse for today’s devotional is: Romans 12:2 (NIV)
"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Devotional:
It is true that as a man thinks in his heart so he is- whatever we have as a predominant thought will often determine how we speak and how we act. If our mind is full of fear, doubt, and negativity, we will reflect that in our speech and how we respond to things that happen around us.
But the thing is, when we are afraid or filled with negativity, we are not in a creative state of mind and may not be able to find the solutions to the problems we are experiencing. God expects us to be filled with His word, to meditate upon His word to the extent that when we are hard-pressed, what comes out is the confidence that ‘WE KNOW’ that God’s promises are true and we will be fine, no matter what.
Changing the way, we think will not be automatic, it will require some intentional actions on our path. Consider the following:
- Guard Your Thoughts: Be mindful of what you watch, listen to, and read.
- Memorize Scripture: Use God’s Word to combat negative thinking.
- Practice Gratitude: Focus on what’s good and right in your life.
- Speak Life: Declare God’s promises over your situation.
Here are a few reflective questions:
- What negative thoughts do you struggle with the most?
- How can you replace those thoughts with God’s truth?
- What scripture encourages you when you’re feeling low?
Let Us Pray:
Dear God, help me renew my mind with your word daily. Help me think only of that which is true, honest, of good report, thoughts that will lead me to the right actions in Jesus name. Amen.
Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:
- My mind is renewed by God’s truth.
- I think thoughts of peace, joy, and faith.
- God’s Word shapes my perspective and actions.
Have a beautiful day, dear ones. I’ll see you tomorrow.
