BE THOROUGHLY SEASONED? (Condition Your Mind Completely With The Word)

?TO THE BIBLE: Romans 12:2 AMPC “Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].”

LET’S TALK:⏭
I learnt of an ignorant young Christian who barred his friends from entering his house in the height of the Covid debacle, all because he’d heard they weren’t following some safety precautions. He’d studied and practised the precautions on himself so thoroughly that he was now an “expert” in the field. What he hadn’t realised was that his mind had now been conditioned to believe some falsities and lies from the world. How I wish he had allowed the Word to condition him instead!

There’s something very significant that God’s Word can do for you; the Word can so condition and season your mind that you start thinking like God. That’s amazing! It’s the reason we’re admonished to renew our minds with the Word through meditation. When the Word gets into you through meditation, you’re programmed to live accordingly. Circumstances, the world around you, and other voices may try to sway you from the Word, but they won’t succeed if your spirit is conditioned by the Word. Rather than feed on the garbage from the world on social media, movies, the Internet etc., get yourself conditioned by the Word!

For example, if you’ve been timid or afraid, meditate on the Word. 2 Timothy 1:7 says, “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” Keep affirming, “I have a sound mind; I’m bold, courageous, and full of power.” Before long, the Word will season you with boldness, courage and excellence; you’ll become audacious in faith.

The Word in you is the foundation for a great life. The Word in you makes you impregnable to the crises of life; it makes you think, see and act from the viewpoint of advantage and victory only. With such a mentality, everything you do prospers; you walk in excellence and grace. It makes no difference the challenges you face or who might be working against you; you’re unperturbed, because the Word has conditioned your spirit to know that nothing and no one can successfully stand against you.

?️Speak:
The Word of God is transforming my mind and programming my spirit for greatness, success, and excellence. I’m bold, courageous, and audacious in my faith; I think Kingdom thoughts and see only from the perspective of the Word because the Word cultures my mind and conditions my spirit. Glory to God!
