Renewing Your Mind

Posted by Vancollins On May - 11 - 2009

In chapter 16 of “Intensive Faith Therapy”, we look at the huge job we have of renewing our minds. Notice that God has not promised to renew our minds for us. This is something that we must do ourselves. No one can do it for us.

We looked at the scripture as recorded in Romans 12:2. We saw that we are not to be conformed to this world but we are to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. We cannot do things like the world does. We cannot focus on depressing thoughts and hopeless ideas. We must transform or change our way of thinking. Our thinking must be so that we are able to prove that good, acceptable and perfect will of God.

The Thoughts of God

Posted by Vancollins On May - 11 - 2009

In chapter 15 of “Intensive Faith Therapy“, we are reminded that God’s thoughts are not our thoughts. No matter how smart we think we are or how “deep” in God we perceive ourselves to be, we will never know or understand all of the ways of God. Even when we flow in the gifts of the Spirit such as prophecy, we are told that prophesy in part. Therefore, we may not always know “why” we are going through a particular situation.

Fortunately, there are times where God will reveal to us “why” something is happening. However, more often than not, we generally do not know all of the details. We may not know why a particular relationship going sour will benefit us. We may not know why losing our job at this moment is in God’s plan.

Our assignment for this lesson is simple. We will not deal with what we don’t know. Let’s deal with what we do know. We know that the thoughts that God has towards us are good. They are thoughts of peace and not evil. We also know that all things work together for good to them that love God and are the called according to His purpose. What a wonderful thought to dwell on!
