The Masterpiece Mindset - Part Four, Change Your Mindset, Change Your Life




1 Peter 1:13, Amplified Bible 

So brace up your minds; be sober (circumspect, morally alert); set your hope wholly and unchangeably on the grace (divine favor) that is coming to you when Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is revealed.

Main Point: Having a proper mindset results in joy, success, and fruitful living, not only for yourself, but for others

Peter is not talking about a garment. He is referring to our minds:
~ Deal with the loose ends that exist in our minds and emotions;
~ Correct those parts of our thinking that we know are wrong;
~ Grab hold of all those dangling areas in our thinking and put them out of the way

1. Renew your mind: Romans 12:2
2. Set your mind: Colossians 3:2
3. Focus your mind: Philippians 4:8
4. Use Your Faith: Hebrews 4:2

The Masterpiece Mindset: Part Three, “The Good Fight of Faith”




LISTEN TO PODCAST


1 Timothy 6:10, For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. 11But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses

Everything Is Filtered Through Your Mind

Walking by Faith is not a mental exercise, but our minds play a role in our faith walk.

In particular, we have to wrestle with our own thinking, imaginations, and reasonings as a relates to the Word of God.

What is Faith?

Hebrews 11:1, Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Moffatt’s Translation: Now faith means that we are confident of what we hope for, convinced of what we do not see.”

New English Bible, “Faith gives substance to our hopes

The Masterpiece Mindset, Part Two: Next Level Thinking




LISTEN TO PODCAST


Mark 12:30, And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.' This is the first commandment. 31"And the second, like it, is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these.”

What does it means to love God with all your mind? The sense of this text is that Jesus is talking about loving God with your entire being. But it is interesting that he said we love God with our soul AND mind. Isn’t the mind part of the soul? Yes. But this word “mind” used here specifically speaks to thinking.

The NT Greek word is: διάνοια (dianoia)

The mind as a faculty of understanding, feeling, desiring, understanding

“A thinking over,” a way of thinking and feeling; thoughts, either good or bad

Jesus will take you into Next Level if you want to go!

The Masterpiece Mindset, Part One: Who Am I?




LISTEN TO PODCAST


Ephesians 2:8, God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. 9 Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. 10 For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

Who Am I?
Having God’s perspective on your life is most important.
Society and popular culture what to fashion you into its image.
God says, “I created you in My image [Imago Dei] and likeness.” (Gen. 1:27)

You Are God’s Masterpiece!
A masterpiece is anyone’s best work. A masterpiece does not happen by accident. It is not the result of something random. A masterpiece is the result of an inspired plan.

You Are God’s Best Work!
Your birth was the first miracle
Your re-birth is the greatest miracle

“….He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.” (Eph. 2:10 NLT)
