THEME: MIND
Luke 12:29-31
“And do not seek what you should eat or what you should drink, nor have an anxious mind. For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you need these things. But seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.”
INSIGHT
-It is revealed that anxiety is a mental conditioning given to polytheists & atheists; & should be found within us who believe in the Lord Almighty, Provider of all things. In symbolism Jesus points out that we are of much greater value than birds & lilies; & therefore should not worry about anything for He is the only one who can change our situations & without Him we can do nothing. Since we are sons of our heavenly Father; we are called to believe in Him & do good according to His will. We are also called to seek first His kingdom & His righteousness with faith that God will answer us according to His great love for He knows all our needs.
SUMMARY
-The mind is a spirit which houses the consciousness of God. It is classified into three; the conscience mind, subconscious mind & unconscious mind. It is crucial to harmonise these three areas of mind with the consciousness of God; for He put His laws in our hearts & minds; so that we may always seek Him (Heb 10:16). Apostle Paul in Ephesians 4:20-24 takes the premise that we should be renewed in the spirit of our minds by putting off the old man in the former corrupt conduct & deceitful lust, & embracing the new man through true righteousness & holiness. By the help of the Holy Spirit; renewal of the mind exposes our mental faculties, thoughts, volition, feelings & memories; which are gradually aligned to the will of the Father which takes us to the next level in life. Having the mind of Christ through fellowship, humility, service, generosity, love & thanksgiving, we are reminded to do good always through which we store up our treasures in heaven. Materialism is the mother of all anxiety for many seek after fleeting things & forget the instructions of the Lord. We are entreated never to be anxious about anything but in prayer, supplication & thanksgiving make our request known to God (Phil 4:6); for through giving thanks in all situations; we display total trust in Him. Jesus also reminds us to turn our eyes upon Him & evil desires will grow strangely dim in our minds through the light of His glory & grace.
PRAYER
We love You LORD, because You have heard our voice & our supplications; because You have inclined Your ear to us. We will therefore call upon You as long as we live. We dedicate all the cancer patients unto Your able hands Jesus that You may heal them all; for by Your stripes we are healed. Many of us Lord harbour the cancer of anxiety & unforgiveness in our hearts; heal us Jesus so that we may forgive those who offend us & be at peace within ourselves. Other times we have refused to let go of the cancer of repeated sin; deliver us & forgive us Jesus for nothing can separate us from Your love. Help us Jesus to trust, obey & give thanks to You always King of all glory. Bless us indeed Father & expand our territories according to Your unending grace. Amen
Blessed Weekend
