TOPIC: YIELDING TO GOD 5: Yielding Your Mind?
MEMORY VERSE:
Romans 6:16.
“16. Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
BIBLE READING:
Romans 12:2
“2. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
Thinking Point:
The seat of God in man is the Mind. When the seat is not sanctify, He can’t abode in such Mind.
Yielding to either God or devil has it’s origin from the mind. The mind is the foundation of every occurrences we see happening around us today. What goes on in the mind determines what happens in the physical. Who and what you yield your heart to determines who and what controls it. Our thoughts, imagination, and reasoning all springs up from the Mind. So, who controls the mind determines the product of the mind.
Apostle Paul said we should not be conformed to this world, you may want to ask, but we are in the world? Yes, we are, but we are not to think like them. A referee is on the pitch of play with other footballers but with a different mindset. What the players considers fair play is different from what he sees as fair play. He is on the pitch but thinks differently from them. That is how it is when a mind is yielded to God. We are to separate our minds from the ways of the world. Our mind must be guided by the things of God and not of the world. Yielding our minds to God makes us walk and live like the god we are created to be. When we think the way the world thinks, we become what the world becomes; evil, heartless, wicked, greedy and selfish. To yield your mind to God you need to guide your sight, ears and heart because those are the entrance to your mind. Guide them jealously.
