THE MIND OF CHRIST PT1.
*đź“– For who hath known the mind of the Lord,, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:16.
Dear friend, the mind of Christ is a regenerated mind. A mind that is aligned to the eternal will of God. You no longer live the life of your own, but you live to please God.
In this generation, many want to trend than to live in truth of God’s word.
Let this mind be in you,, which was also in Christ Jesus. Who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God.
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant and was made in the likeness of men. Phillipians 2:5-7.
The scripture calls believers to be like Jesus in humility, obedience, and self-sacrificial love of Jesus, prioritizing others over selfish ambition. It challenges believers to move from self-centeredness, pride, arrogance, hatred and disobedience and be filled with the Holy Spirit and be transformed into the image of Christ Jesus and trusting God to help them through the challenges of life.
Remember, by redemption, Christ is in you, the hope of GLORY. And because he’s in you, you carry his divine nature. As believers, our mind is renewed by the word of God daily. In 1 Corinthians 1:30 ‘It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.” The mind of Jesus reflects the fruits of the Spirit of love, unspeakable joy, peace that flows like a river, patience, long suffering , faith and humility. And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
Unbelievers operates with a reprobate mind of hatred, gossip, backbiting, heresy, strife, conflict, drunkenness and never yielding to God’s word. A reprobate mind is devilish and self-seeking. It engenders the lust of the eyes, flesh and pride of life.
If we live in the Spirit and have surrender our lives to Jesus, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another- Galatians 5:25. Beloved, our lives must reflect the life of Jesus producing fruits of love to God and to one another, humility, joy, peace, patience and long suffering as demonstrated by unwavering love of Jesus.
Jesus said unto them, my meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish His work. John 4:34. Believers with the mind of Christ is committed in doing God’s will and to lift up the interest of His Kingdom at all times. For him God is all that matters and he want to do God’s will at all costs.
