Rhapsody Of Realities 4 August 2024 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): An Excellent Mind
TOPIC: An Excellent Mind (Rhapsody of Realities 4 August 2024)
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things (Philippians 4:8).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
As one who’s born again, you have an excellent mind because the Bible says we have the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16). That’s a mind that’s sanctified by the Word of God to think on things that are true, honest, just, pure, of good report, virtuous and praiseworthy.
An excellent mind doesn’t begrudge anyone but genuinely loves people. It isn’t a garbage dump for gossip and tale-bearing. An excellent mind is impermeable to negative information.
One of the decisions you must make for yourself is to think the right thoughts. Make up your mind to only give hearing to the right things so you can think the right thoughts. You must filter your thoughts if you want to live an excellent life.
Furthermore, an excellent mind is creative and innovative; it completely shuns mediocrity. It does excellent things as a personal policy; no half-measures. Don’t say, “I’m just the cleaner where I work”; let your mind soar. Become more innovative, forward-thinking, and inventive in the way you clean. Do some more research on the best cleaning techniques available. Then, most importantly, pray a lot in tongues about your work, and the Holy Spirit will flood your mind with the most creative measures and strategies to deploy in taking your work to the next level.
God wants to commit so much into the hands of excellent characters. Therefore, show yourself worthy through your appreciation and application of His Word, and you’d be excellent in all things and ready for the much more that the Lord will entrust to you. Amen.
Dear Father, I yield my thoughts and mental processes to your Word and Spirit, choosing to focus on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and of good report. I maintain an excellent mind that is creative, innovative, and free from negativity. My thoughts and actions reflect the excellence of my divine nature, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
