God Thinking LI - 2

"When God speaks to you, what God has said is not yet yours yet. You cannot operate in or under its authority until it is yours, and it becomes yours by believing it and receiving it, by faith.

Paul caught this vision from God when He was writing to the Romans.  Paul wrote:

“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.  6.  For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.  7.  Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.”  Romans 8:5-7

We need a generation of men and women that will believe what God says.

There is carnally minded and there is spiritually minded, and there is a war going on in the mind between these two poles.  Spiritually minded is seeking life and everything associated with being a child of the living God.

Carnally minded, is seeking life and everything associated with satisfying your base desires, without including God in the equation."

God is interested in your mind and what you think, and that is evident in the way that God created you.  Think about it, the written Word was developed for use by your mind and it is your mind that activates the truths within the Word of God, by faith."
