Having the Mind of Christ #nightlight #NK #RTTBROS #normankissinger
Verse: "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 (KJV)
As believers, we have been given an incredible privilege - access to the mind of Christ. Through the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives, we can understand God's will and the thoughts of Christ. This is a mystery that we may not fully comprehend, but we can trust that the Holy Spirit is glorifying the Father and the Son in our lives and speaking on their behalf.
As humans, our default is to struggle with the desires of the flesh. However, as Christians, we have the Holy Spirit to wage war against these desires in our minds and hearts. With the mind of Christ, we can know what Christ is thinking about an issue and, therefore, know what to do. By staying close to God through His Word and prayer, we can better understand how Christ would respond to various situations.
When we are intimately connected with someone, such as a spouse, we often know their preferences and thoughts without even asking. Similarly, the more we listen to, read, and study God's Word, the more we will understand how Christ would think about different issues. This understanding allows us to minister to others more effectively and respond to day-to-day situations in a way that aligns with Christ's mind.
As we rejoice in this wonderful privilege of having the mind of Christ, let us commit to staying connected to Him through His Word and prayer. By doing so, we can live more effective lives and minister to others in a way that brings glory to God.
