Romans 12:2 (NKJV) 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
When God asks us to do something, are we willing to do it? That’s a good question that we will all need to answer at one time or another.
Do we have stipulations that we present to God? Do we say “God, I will do that if you do it this way.”?
Knowing who God is will help us greatly when it comes to doing what He asks us to do. We need to understand that God wants the very best for us. Once we know this, wouldn’t we be more willing to let Him own us completely?
How do we let God own us? We train our brain to listen to our heart.
But, why would we want our brain to listen to our heart, if our heart can’t think like our brain can?
Well, if we have given our heart to Christ, He will move on us and speak to us through our heart. If we want to do what He is asking us to do, we have to be listening to the heart. The heart will speak loud and clear. But our mind must submit and follow, and not try to lead.
The brain tends to lead us by logic and intellect. It will make us think that we shouldn’t do anything that we can’t figure out or understand logically.
In comparison, if our heart is being led by the Spirit of God, it will help us to discern what is right and what is not, even if we might not necessarily understand it all.
If Christ is treasured in our hearts, He will bring us a renewed and transformed mind, and the two will bring victory over any situation! Amen.
Matthew 6:21 (NKJV) 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
