THE SEED
”And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind,“ Romans 12:2
Just as we clean our homes, we must also cleanse our minds to maintain a sanctified life. Sanctification includes the renewing of our minds by God’s Word. By filling our hearts with God’s truth, we can align our thoughts with His will. When the enemy comes up with lies to keep us bound to our old ways of life, trying to convince us that we are not forgiven or we can’t be forgiven because of how great the sin committed by us has been or by keeping us tied to evil family traditions or ordeals that have kept many family members under constant attack, convincing us that we can not break free, or bringing unbelief to fight the true promises of God for our lives, beloved, all of these instances and many more call for us to stand in the truth of the word of God to disaffect all the lies of the enemy through the power of sanctification that makes all things about us new in Christ. We constantly need to speak the word of God to renew our thoughts to silence all fears, condemnation, doubts and unbelief, so that our minds can be aligned to the will of God. If God says you are His child because He greatly loves you and the devil comes with lies to say otherwise, it’s all in your hands to purify your mind with the words of your Father and convincingly tell the enemy that “I am a child of God”
BIBLE READINGS: 1John 3:1-3
PRAYER: Father in heaven, keep me in the constant renewal of my heart by your words to fight against the enemy in any form that might try to pollute my heart, in Jesus’ Name. Amen
