The mind is so important that not only does it determine that course of your life, it can also determine the destination of your life. Proverbs 4:23 says, “Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.” In the New Living Translation, that bible verse says “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” Another word for heart there is your mind.
The mind is so powerful that it can determine whether a person ends in heaven or hell. If Jesus defines being guilty of fornication or adultery by virtue of the thought of fornication or adultery, and not even the act, as we see in Matthew 5:28, it tells you how powerful and influential the mind is in the equation of a person’s life.
The mind is the greatest asset of man by virtue of the fact that everything in a man’s life rises and falls on the state of the mind. As powerful as the mind is, God has given you the ability to choose what goes in and out of your mind. So never allow the devil deceive you make you think you have no power over what goes on in your mind. However, while God does not control us in how we use our minds, yielding our minds to God is critical to us becoming all that God has destined us to be.
In this episode, we will discuss on how we can yield our minds to the Spirit of God that is in us. We will see the benefits of doing so, and the practical steps we can take to do this. When our minds are yielded to the Spirit of God in us, God is able to work in and through us, and the world is able to see God through our lives.
