Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect. (NRSV)
Listen to the radio broadcast of Are You Out of Your Mind?
Download audio fileIt’s funny how things that are seemingly good for us can turn out to be incredibly bad for us. Whether it’s food, whether it’s entertainment – whatever it is that is promoted as being good – can actually have something deadly lurking within.
Your mind is an incredibly powerful thing. What we think often becomes reality. If we think good things, then we end up doing good things. If we think bad things, we end up doing bad things. That’s why it is so incredibly important to set boundaries around your mind.
Our minds are being bombarded with so many things; so many negative, unhelpful ways of thinking that if we’re not careful, we end up taking that negativity on board and making it part of how we think and how we live.
Take the sitcoms that play themselves out on television each night. On the surface, they’re funny – we laugh, we’re entertained. But more and more, those sitcoms are being used as platforms for delivering wrong thinking about promiscuity and perversions, much in the same way that cigarettes were designed all along to be a deadly delivery platform for the addictive substance, nicotine.
So let me ask you – honestly, is your mind on a junk food diet? Are you consuming stuff that you shouldn’t be and if so, are you out of your mind?!
Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and perfect. (NRSV)
If what you’re after is a better life, a life that honours God, then it’s time to change your mind. And that transformation happens when we let God speak into our lives, so that we know what His good and perfect will for us actually is.
That’s God’s Word. Fresh … for you … today.

Hi,
Thank you for the message today, I need to be very careful on what my mind consume every day. It’s better to start my day with God’s Word to renew my mind.

Thank you for always getting to the point and basing it on Scripture. I use several sources in my morning time with the Father but I appreciate yours being so useful .

I think it is a blessing to me that the words of God wake me up and lead me to reading it regularly or every day.
Thank you Sir for your help and for providing this opportunity.
God Bless You.
