What are you mindful of?

Romans  8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

Praise the Lord!!

Today we will meditate upon things we need to be mindful of.

We have always heard of this saying " An idle mind is a devil's workshop". Then it means we need to be mindful for something so that devil doesn't take over our thoughts.

What does a fleshly mind always think of?
1. Doing evil continuously ( Genesis 6:5)
2. Lust of flesh (Galatians 5:9)
3. Fulfilling the desires of flesh and mind (Ephesians 2:3)

What should a Christian be mindful of?

1. Be mindful of his covenant (1 Chronicles 16:15)
2. Be mindful of his wonders and blessings (Nehemiah 9:17)
3. Be mindful of Jesus and his sacrifice for us. ( Isaiah 17:10)
4. Be mindful of the rock of your strength (Isaiah 17:10)

What would we benefit by being spiritually minded?

We would receive these blessings if we set our minds to Christ.
1. His blessings will make you rich and add no sorrow to you ( Proverbs 10:22)
2. God will be your exceeding great reward ( Genesis 15:1)
3. God will establish a covenant between you and Him to bless you and your household eternally. (Genesis 17:12)

The question is how can we be spiritually minded in this world. As Isaiah said. Woe to me as I am in midst of unclean lips.

How can you think spiritually in this world?

1 John  3:9  Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.

You need to be born of God
( born again) to remain blameless and spiritually minded.

How can we be born of God?

1.You need to confess all your sins to Jesus.
2. You need to accept Jesus as your Lord and saviour.
3. You need to take water baptism for the righteousness sake.
4. You need to invite the Holy Spirit in your hearts and surrender yourself in his hands.

Once you do all these things you can be assured that you will become spiritually minded as he will keep you holy and blameless untill that judgement day.

Saints, we are living in end times and every word that proceeds out of our mouth will be judged.

Be spiritually minded!!

Revelation  3:20  Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

God Bless
