Romans 12:2

Do not conform to the pattern of this

world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind. (NIV)
Dont copy the behavior and
customs of this world, but let God
transform you into a new person by
changing the way you think. (NLT)

Change Your Life By Changing Your Mind

Why I Must Manage My Mind

* Because my thoughts control my
life
Be careful how you think, your life is
shaped by your thoughts Pr.4:23 (TEV)
THOUGHTS>>>BELIEFS>>>>ACTIONS

 *Because my mind is the battleground

for sin.
I love to do Gods will so far as my new nature is
concerned; but there is something else deep within
me, in my lower nature, that is at war with my
mind and wins the fight and makes me a slave to
the sin that is still within me. In my mind I want to
be Gods willing servant, but instead I find myself
still enslaved to sin. Rom.7:22-25 (LB)

 * Because its the key to peace

and happiness
So letting your sinful nature
control your mind leads to death.
But letting the Spirit control your
mind leads to life and peace. Ro.8:6
(NLT)

3 Daily Choices For A

Healthy Mind

1. I must feed my mind with truth.

The Scriptures say, People do not live by bread

alone, but by every word that comes from the
mouth of God. Matt.4:4
WHEN?
I rise early, before the sun is up;
I cry out for help and put my hope in your
words. Ps.119:147

 Oh, how I love your instructions!

I think about them all day long.
Ps.119:97
I will bless the Lord who guides me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
Ps.16:7

 2. I must free my mind from

destructive thoughts.
Those who are dominated by the sinful
nature think about sinful things, but
those who are controlled by the Holy
Spirit think about things that please the
Spirit. Romans 8:5

 We live in this world, but we dont fight our

battles in the same way the world does. The
weapons we use are not human ones. Our
weapons have power from God and can destroy
the enemys strong places we tear down
every proud idea that raises itself against the
knowledge of God. We also capture every
thought and make it give up and obey Christ. 2
Cor.10:3-5
