Change My Mind: Renewing of My Mind
May 02, 2021 | John Durham
Passage: Romans 12:1-2
DISTORTED WORSHIP LEADS TO DISTORTED THINKING WHICH LEADS TO DISTORTED PASSIONS WHICH LEAD TO DISTORTED LIVING.
ROMANS 12:1-2 A LIVING SACRIFICE: WE PUT TO DEATH THE RIGHT TO LIVE AS WE CHOOSE
DISTORTED WORSHIP LEADS TO DISTORTED THINKING WHICH LEADS TO DISTORTED PASSIONS WHICH LEAD TO DISTORTED LIVING.
Being a sacrifice means: 1) ALL OF MY BODY 2) ALL OF MY MIND 3) ALL MY SERVICE.
ROMANS 12:2 CHRISTIANS, OUR SOUL HAS BEEN CHANGED BY JESUS, BUT OUR FLESH BATTLES US CONSTANTLY. THAT BATTLE TAKES PLACE IN THE MIND.
OUR SOUL’S ALLIES IN THE BATTLE ARE THE WORD AND THE HOLY SPIRIT, OUR FLESH’S ALLIES IN THE BATTLE ARE THE WORLD AND THE ENEMY.
HOW DO I RENEW MY MIND?
- RESIST THE PATTERNS OF THE WORLD
- PREPARE FOR TRANSFORMATION IN HIS WORD.
- EXERCISE THIS NEW MIND.
- LIVE A JESUS-CENTERED LIFE(•ENJOY JESUS. • SUBMIT TO JESUS. • STUDY JESUS’ TRUTH. • SURRENDER TO JESUS’ MISSION)
…AND THEN WE LIVE IN HIS WILL, WHICH IS MORE SATISFYING THAN ANYTHING THIS WORLD HAS TO OFFER.
