Change The Way You Think

My child, I want you to change the way you think about yourself. I have given you the mind of Christ and I want you to start thinking about yourself the way I do. You are a chosen child of God. You are a joint heir with Christ. You have My Spirit living inside of you and you can do all things through Christ who gives you strength. I have given you everything you need. I am your rear guard, your strong tower and your Father who loves you. I have not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. Cooperate with My Spirit’s work in your life today. Believe Me and not the devil.

Rescued from Sin

Think back for a moment to what your life was like at the time Jesus rescued you from your sin. In and of ourselves, could any of us have achieved righteousness in God’s eyes? Of course not! Each and every one of us had to rely totally on Jesus to clean up the mess we’d made of our lives.

Then how in the world could we ever think that now we might somehow be capable of building relationship with Him by our own efforts?(Romans 5:10) Well, needless to say, it’s impossible. Still, it’s not at all uncommon for believers to keep trying, since our human nature instinctively inclines us to do so. Therefore, we must always be vigilant not to retreat into a mindset of trying to earn a position of good standing with God.(Colossians 2:20-21)
