God Thinking LI - Mining The Mind Of God 6

"The truth of God is true, but you cannot operate in that truth, until it is true to you. 

Hear the Word of the LORD:

“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee; because he trusteth in Thee.”  Isaiah 26:3

This truth from God is always true, but there is a great chasm between what God speaks that is true and what God speaks that is true in your life.  

Listen carefully to this example:

Is it true that Jesus is the Savior?   YES

Is there anything that could possibly change that from being true?  No

Is Jesus the Savior in the mind of those who deny Him?  No

If Jesus is the Savior, why is He not the Savior in those who do not believe in Him? 

Because even though it is true that Jesus is the Savior, He is not the Savior in their mind and in their heart.  Heart and mind being synonymous in this respect. 
 

Let’s look at Isaiah 26:3 again:

“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee; because he trusteth in Thee.”  Isaiah 26:3

It will always be true that God will “keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on (God).  But your mind is not always stayed on Him, so you are not always in perfect peace. 

Or, to put it a little differently, (for perspective), you don’t have perfect peace when your mind is not stayed on Him.
