Devotional Fuel to Reboot Your Mind

Romans 12:1-2, “And so dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice – the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” NLT.

Have you thought much about what you think about the most? We each need to examine ourselves from time to time and ask, “Am I living for Christ in my actions in holiness in this circumstance and in my thoughts, or only for myself?” At conversion, our hearts are changed within us, giving us a new perspective under Christ’s authority and helping us avoid conforming to ungodly patterns. Our emotions, however, reflect what we worship. They reveal what has captured our hearts – what we crave, treasure, and serve. Our prayer needs to be Psalm 119:114: “You are my refuge and my shield; your word is the source of my hope.” Our obedience from the heart is what God wants as we live a daily sacrifice to Him, trusting Him to guide and direct us because our sins have been forgiven at the cross.

How do you worship God? Do you realize how important it is to read His Word daily and talk to Him in prayer? That is how one cultivates a closer relationship with Him. The Bible teaches us about God, His personality, which is found in His attributes. When you read Scripture, pray for wisdom, knowledge, and understanding, and that it will help you love Him and others more. Ask Him to help you see something new about Himself that you have never seen before. Then ask Him to help you correct any lies you had not realized were wrong about God, or anything you might have misunderstood. Lastly, ask Him to direct your steps according to His Word, as the author of Psalm 119:105 stated, “Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a life to my path.” That changes the way we think.

Do you realize that, as a follower of Christ, you take the Holy Spirit with you everywhere you go because of the redemptive work on the cross? When you read God’s Word, the Holy Spirit reminds you throughout your day of the truths that you have read. But if we don’t spend time in Scripture, we are actually quenching the Spirit’s work in our lives because the Spirit works through the Word of God. When you habitually read God’s Word, you will be transformed into a new person by Him changing the way you think. Your response pattern in using the Bible to solve your problems will be forming new biblical ways of understanding and forming new biblical patterns automatically. Then you will know God’s will for you, which is “good and pleasing and perfect.”

As Ephesians 4:22-24 admonishes, “Throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God – truly righteous and holy.” Then, as Colossians 3:10 states, “Put on your new nature, and be renewed as you learn to know your Creator and become like Him.”

Don’t know where to start in reading the Bible? Choose a book such as Psalms, John, Philippians, or Colossians for a few suggestions, and read it repeatedly for a month. This practice helps your mind and heart become new by fostering biblical thinking patterns and a biblical approach to life, firmly rooted in Christ.

Listen to Matthew West – Goodbye Yesterday (Lyric Video).

Micah 6:8, “No, O people, the LORD has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.” NLT

“He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does Yahweh require of you but to do justice, to love lovingkindness, And to walk humbly with your God?” LSB

God always calls for repentance and living righteously. This passage presents Micah the prophet’s imagined courtroom, where God, the judge, has proven His case before the court, showing the injustice and deceit of Israel, whose own sin brought their affliction upon them, and appealing to the people to repent. It teaches us to shift from merely external religious performance to internal moral and spiritual integrity in our vertical relationship with our God and Savior. It is like a checklist for godly living as echoed in Proverbs 11:19, “Godly people find life; evil people find death.” That is pretty cut and dry. Evil people die without hope and miss out on the fullness of life, compared to those who are born-again and believe in Jesus Christ, who (John 11:25) has given eternal life. Then in Deuteronomy 10:12-13, Moses gives a summary that is easy to remember: “And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you? He requires only that you fear the LORD your God, and live in a way that pleases him, and love him and serve him with all your heart and soul. And you must always obey the LORD’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good.” We, I, need to remind myself every day of the gospel and that fact in living a cross-centered life in loving, following, serving, and obeying Him.

Micah 6:8 challenges us to examine whether we are living out what God requires of us, reflecting on whether we are compassionate, humble before God, and showing mercy to those who have wronged us. Showing mercy stops emotions of resentment and bitterness. What about not letting our ego take over our thoughts, actions, and words? As James 3:13 declares, “If you are wise and understand God’s ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom.” Our perspective needs to be as 2 Corinthians 5:17 declares, “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!”

Spurgeon applied the idea of how to walk humbly with your God (Blue Letter Bible, David Guzik Commentary) in one of his sermons which stated:

• Walk humbly when you are spiritually strong.
• Walk humbly when you have much work to do.
• Walk humbly in all your motives.
• Walk humbly studying God’s word.
• Walk humbly when under trials.
• Walk humbly in your devotions.
• Walk humbly between you and your brothers in Christ.
• Walk humbly when dealing with sinners.

Have you discovered who or what you really are in Christ? Then you will be humble, live rightly with integrity, show mercy one more time than you feel like it to someone, and be humble before our great God. This is what God requires of you and me today.

John 17:4, “I have finished the work which You have given Me to do.” NKJV

Psalm 5:3, “Listen to my voice in the morning, LORD. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly. Psalm 5:4 NLT.

How often don’t we all complain that we don’t have enough time in our day to get everything we are supposed to do done, and we are utterly exhausted? We have work obligations, family obligations, etc. So, the “list” we have made up for the day can become an idol to us, determining our sense of need for happiness on a seemingly good day versus a bad one, according to our own list. We have then made it a god in our life instead of doing each day what God wants us to do in obedience and honoring Him. I have to think about this myself and question what is on God’s list for me to do today, taking the whole picture into account from His perspective.

Jesus had quite a long list, wouldn’t you say, that He needed to do to accomplish God’s plan of redemption? Yet at the end of His life He declared, “I have finished the work which You have given Me to do.” John 17:4 NKJV. Jesus accomplished this during the time on earth that God gave Him to do so. He doesn’t say He completed everything the disciples wanted Him to do, only what God gave Him to do.

What if, on your “to-do list,” you pray and say, “God, this is what I think I need to do today; what do you think, because I desperately need your help? I can’t do it on my own, and I want to give you glory in all that you have given me to do.” David did this and sought God’s counsel and wisdom in his responsibilities. The first thing he did each morning was give his requests to God and put his hope in God’s words.

Ephesians 2:10 explains our identity as it states, “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.” Since this is true, remember you are not inferior and don’t need to compare yourself to anyone else or their great list of accomplishments. Grace-based living, preaching the gospel to oneself every day, leads to perseverance, producing virtues of serving with joy and peace, knowing one’s secure identity in Christ, in one’s pursuit of holiness. Each of us has seasons in our lives. What God gave me to do in my late twenties is different from what He has me to do now. The same is true for you. Yes, you have limitations – I have limitations. But God is enough is the truth we, and I, need to live by.

Start each day in God’s Word. Ask Him to correct any lies you believe about Him or misunderstandings as you read, helping you see His truth more clearly. Then ask God to guide your priorities and tasks for the day by His grace and sovereign will, so that your daily decisions are more aligned with His purpose. Conflict and chaos will expose our idols in our hearts – be mindful of that. Thrive where He has placed you by developing a deep and lasting relationship with our Lord and Savior through reading His Word daily and in prayer. Do your priorities lie in lies or truths? Ask God – He will tell you and set you free. Then pray Psalm 90:12, “Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom.”

Listen to Phil Wickham – The Name Above the Storm.

James 3:17-18, “But the wisdom from above is first of all pure. It is also peace loving, gentle at all times, and willing to yield to others. It is full of mercy and the fruit of good deeds. It shows no favoritism and is always sincere. And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness.”

James, who was Jesus’ brother, was known as a peacemaker. It is recorded in Acts 15:13-21 that, when he became the leader of the church in Jerusalem, he turned to God’s Word as the ultimate test of truth between the Gentiles and the Jews, in getting along as brothers and sisters in Christ, rather than to man’s opinions, personal experiences, and convictions, as also noted in Galatians 2:9-10. His peacemaking skills came to the fore as he reached an acceptable compromise on an issue, bringing peace by drawing upon the Word of God.

How does one receive a blessing of being a peacemaker? Jesus promised this blessing in Matthew 5:9, during the Sermon on the Mount: “God blesses those who work for peace, for they will be called the children of God.” Being blessed by God is more than merely being happy, which is about a happening. Happiness is like an elevator – it goes up, and it goes down. But when one is peace-loving and gentle, not depending on outward circumstances, we experience hope and joy. As Galatians 5:22-23 states, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” Joy is a natural fruit of walking in the Spirit. Sounds like a job description of a “peacemaker,” doesn’t it?

James calls us not only to hear the truth from God’s Word, but also to put it into action in our lives. James teaches us in James 1:22, “But don’t just listen to God’s Word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.” He says it is like looking in a mirror and then immediately forgetting what we look like (James 1:24). We need to preach the gospel to ourselves daily, which gives us hope, joy, and courage. So, putting James 3:17-18 into practice, our ambition in communication needs to be to please God and to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength (Mark 12:30), as shown through our word choices. How often would we have stopped to pray and ask God to tell us what to do and say so that we wouldn’t make mistakes because of our own selfish desires and idols of the heart, when faced with conflict?

When was the last time somebody provoked you? Oh, just an hour ago, you might say, or less! Yet 1 Corinthians 13:5 states, “love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.” Pray that you will not engage unnecessarily in conflict. When someone else is angry, think of Proverbs 15:1, “A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” Listen, pause, and refuse to sin in your communication (Proverbs 8:6-8). Pray to have the qualities of being “a peacemaker to reap a harvest of righteousness.” Foolishness leads to disorder, but the wisdom found in God’s Word leads to peace.

Therefore, James 3:17-18 should be a grid for any conversation or word of instruction. May our actions show sincere mercy, reflecting God’s goodness, and seek to be peacemakers, as James was and as Jesus taught in Matthew 5:9. Plant peace and reap righteousness as God blesses peacemakers.

Listen to God of Every Grace, Keith and Kristyn Getty.

Philippians 4:8, “And now dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.” NLT

Training ourselves to renew our minds in God’s Word is part of God redeeming us in our sanctification. That is the process of being made holy and set apart for God’s purposes in our lives, as we live in ways that reflect God’s character and values. We have to fight against living by our circumstances – for that is not where our identity lies. We have to discipline our thoughts, as Paul taught in Philippians 4:8, because God is our source of power and our daily guide, both when things are clear and when they are unclear. He is the true and only source of contentment and peace.

Reviewing past answers to prayers and praying, which is simply communicating with God is one way to renew our minds. Ephesians 4:23 instructs us to, “Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes.” That takes discipline. Every time a king in the Old Testament failed to ask God for counsel in making a decision, they failed miserably. Our motivation needs to be always for desiring God-honoring ways and honoring God in all we do and speak.

Our own understanding of our circumstances may not capture the full picture, and we have limited knowledge, so it comes down to Proverbs 3:5 instruction, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.” God is a better judge of what we need than we are. We need to follow what Jesus taught in Luke 12:31, “Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and he will give you everything you need.” Then ask yourself, what do you know about God that you didn’t know a month ago? Think about that.

Yes, we all are tempted to give in to anxiety as life has its ups and downs. But in renewing our mind by thinking biblically, and on Matthew 6:27, which Jesus taught, “Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?” The obvious answer is NO. We know that, but it takes, again, renewing our minds in God’s Word to give us daily, moment-by-moment joy and peace that He is in control. Worrying damages our health, disrupts our ability to think clearly, affects how we treat others, and reduces our trust in God. As Jesus taught in Matthew 6:30b, “Why do you have so little faith?” Renewing our minds continually through reading and studying God’s Word will change our way of thinking to a biblical way of thinking. As Romans 12:1-2 states, “And so dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice – the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” NLT. Yes, be reassured that God’s will for you is “good and pleasing and perfect.”

God’s ultimate purpose for us is to redeem us from sin and sanctify us to live a life that reflects God’s character and values. Rather than only coping with anxiety, God’s Word is sufficient to transform our thoughts, attitudes, and eliminate our wrong thinking, forming us into a new person, and guarding our thoughts with the truth of Scripture.

Engage in God’s Word each day, and preferably in the morning, before anything else. Ask for His counsel and guidance, strengthening your faith and hope each day, in obedience to Him. We have to keep our thoughts focused on our identity in Christ, the gospel, and the truth of Philippians 4:8 as we renew our minds biblically.

Listen to MercyMe, Tim Timmons & Sam Wesley – Make It Well.

Proverbs 17:22, “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength.” NLT

Proverbs 17:27-28, “A truly wise person uses few words; a person with understanding is even-tempered. Even fools are thought wise when they keep silent; with their mouths shut, they seem intelligent.” NLT

Who would you rate as the wisest person who has been your go-to mentor when you needed someone to listen to you about something that was deeply bothering you and needed their words of wisdom? Solomon was one of the most famous in the Old Testament, for his wisdom, which he received from God when he humbly asked for the ability to justly judge the people and to know right from wrong (1 Kings 3:9), and is one of the main writers of the book of Proverbs. The wise people in my life that I have sought out from time to time live out Proverbs 16:21, which says, “The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive.”

A “broken-spirit” (Prov. 17:22) is cross-referenced with Proverbs 15:13: “A glad heart makes a happy face; a broken heart crushes the spirit.” Furthermore, Solomon stated in Ecclesiastes 8:1, “How wonderful to be wise, to analyze and interpret things. Wisdom lights up a person’s face, softening its harshness.” Wisdom is not learned automatically; it comes from the ability to see life through eternal eyes, from God’s perspective, and then to know the best course of action to take. “Knowledge is having the facts. Understanding is the ability to discern what the facts mean and how they fit together in the big picture. Wisdom is knowing how to apply your knowledge and understanding, translating it into the everyday life of a Christ follower.” The Bible Recap, Tara-Leigh Cobble, page 339.

God blessed Solomon with an understanding heart. The apostle Paul taught in Philippians 4:8, “Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” ESV. This was Paul’s secret in prison in coping with his predicament. We all face struggles, and that is when we need to put off our fears, and put on 1 Peter 5:7, which states, “cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”

Our hearts need to crave, treasure, serve, and worship our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ. Our emotions reflect what we worship and what has captured our hearts. David said in Psalm 23:1, “The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need.” God is righteous, gracious, and merciful. Christ’s communication was always timely. We need the skill of being timely in our communication, as it says, “Like apples of gold in settings of silver is a word spoken in right circumstances. Proverbs 25:11.

Be encouraged – seek out a godly mentor when needed. Model the grace that God has so graciously given to you. Have an ongoing list of what you are thankful for that God has done in your life. Then, as you read God’s Word, ask Him to give you knowledge, understanding, and wisdom so that you can cope with any predicament. Then you will have good judgment. Our trials reveal our loyalty to God (Psalm 44:21b-26). Lastly, Ps. 119:143 gave me great reassurance recently as it says, “As pressure and stress bear down on me, I find joy in your commands.” NLT. That is the source of our solution for coping with any predicament.

Listen to My Soul Will Wait (Psalm 62) Official Lyric Video.

Ephesians 2:6,7, “For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus. So God can point to us in all future ages as examples of the incredible wealth of his grace and kindness toward us, as shown in all he has done for us who are united with Christ Jesus.” NLT

In Christ we have all the benefits of knowing God. Because we have been forgiven, have been given the gift of the Holy Spirit, power to live as Christians now, and can enjoy God’s blessings due to our intimate relationship with Christ. Do we really understand the wealth of His grace to us as we live a cross-centered life? How often do we shrink in disgust at the evil around us? Yet Paul said in Ephesians 1:19-20, “I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms.” God’s incredible power helps us grow, change, and love others as He so loves us. We can’t do it on our own. We all have various trials and sufferings we are or will go through. Trials reveal our loyalty to God “for He knows the secrets of every heart “(Psalm 44:21b). But we have hope because our eternal life with Christ remains secure, and we sit in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus because of our salvation and fellowship with Him. Our identity is in Christ, not in our trials.

Paul spoke of great evil in his day and stated it in Ephesians. 2:2 of our previous condition before we were saved, “You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil – the commander of the powers in the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God. I have to remind myself of this, don’t you? Reminds me of the wicked and stubborn Pharaoh in the Old Testament, in Exodus, who defied God. But God’s mighty power was shown in the end when the Israelites walked safely on dry ground through the middle of the Red Sea. At the same time, the Egyptians, when the waters returned, were covered and died along with all of their chariots and charioteers – the entire army of Pharaoh! “Of all the Egyptians who had chased the Israelites into the sea, not a single one survived.” Exodus 14:28. God has solutions we can’t even imagine – trust Him.

Dear reader, whatever you are going through, know that God will continue to show the “incredible wealth of His grace and kindness to you” for His glory. Hang on with perseverance. God is concerned about our heart condition and our obedience, which is called “progressive sanctification,” as 2 Peter 3:18 declares: “Rather, you must grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”

We have to continually redefine our identity and check whether our self-talk is biblically grounded. It is a lifelong requirement. Try to see your day-to-day through new eyes where God is big and people are small in comparison. Any unbelief is polluting our hearts, which is where our mind, emotions, and will – all of our actions flow out of, our heart. His Word renews our minds with biblical truths, filling us with hope and inspiring ongoing growth in our faith. It reminds us of our true identity found in Him. God is enough. Be obedient to God and leave the rest up to Him.

Ephesians 1:18-19, “I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called – his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance. I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms.” NLT

Paul wrote the book of Ephesians to the church at Ephesus and to the neighboring churches while he was in prison in Rome. Paul’s purpose was to encourage and strengthen them in their needy days. It is a letter of practical application lived out by Paul. Paul states in Ephesians 1:11, “Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.” Paul taught of God’s high sovereignty, which has purpose, power, grace, and the glory of Christ. Paul gives insight into the process of sanctification, and he wrote all of this from prison in Rome.

Do you really know Him? Do you know your cure for loneliness is His omnipresence? God’s presence is more important than any other person we might want to be with. Paul prayed for the people to know God better. Talking to God in prayer and reading His Word is how we get to know God more intimately. He will transform your life and change your way of thinking, as Romans 12:2 declares, “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”

What do you think about the most throughout your day? What if you focused on the gospel, on living a cross-centered life? Do you think of the cross more than just at Easter time? Leave your luggage at His feet. Move into the vast mystery of the love Christ has for you. Do you understand God’s power? That power helps us grow, change, and love others better. There is resurrection power living inside you to help you overcome whatever difficulties come your way. As Paul teaches, the same power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead lives in you, as a Christian, and is a means of making you an instrument of godly Christ-like change, not only in yourself, but by your influence in not being overcome by any evil, due to your faith in God, as Psalm 112:9b states, “Their good deeds will be remembered forever. They will have influence and honor.” There is never a power shortage or outage in the Christian life due to Christ’s work on the cross, raising Him above all demonic foes and potential enemies of all time. Christ is above all and is now seated at the right hand of God (Eph. 1:20).

The Message says Ephesians 1:18-19 this way, “I ask – ask the God of our Master, Jesus Christ, the God of glory – to make you intelligent and discerning in knowing him personally, your eyes focused and clear, so that you can see exactly what it is he is calling you to do, grasp the immensity of this glorious way of life he has for his followers, oh, the utter extravagance of his work in us who trust him – endless energy, boundless strength!”

Listen to Matthew West – The Last Song (Official Music Video).

Isaiah 43:1, “But now thus says the LORD, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.” ESV

Psalm 100:3, “Know that the LORD is God. It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.”

Exodus 33:17, “So the LORD said to Moses, “I will do this very thing you have asked, for you have found favor in My sight, and I know you by name.”

Did you realize God knows your name? Think about that for a minute. When someone says your name when talking to you, doesn’t that make the conversation more personal? When you talk to God, realize He knows your very name. He created you and as a Christian, you are part of God’s people, and He knows you by name, cares about your needs, and sees you.

We see God’s omniscience – God has complete knowledge of everything, as Psalm 139:1-6 states: He knows when you get up, go to work, go on walks, travel in your car, go to church, and when you miss it, and when you go to sleep. He even knows what you are going to say before you say it. God knows our thoughts because He sees our heart’s condition and knows what is wrong and what the solution is to correct our wrong thinking (Romans 12:1-2).

God’s omnipotence, which is His sovereignty, means He has the power to work out everything according to His divine purpose and will. David declared in Psalm 138:8a, “The LORD will work out His plans for my life.” His power is inexhaustible, and ours is not (Ephesians 1:11). He will bring us through the difficulties we face.

Yes, God knows your name and has redeemed and justified you, and you are in the lifelong process of sanctification – becoming more like Christ, growing in holiness. God is always preparing you for what is ahead. He is making you to be holy, as 1 Corinthians 1:30 declares, “And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption.“

God created you in His image. Your life has purpose, and His grace is sufficient for you, even in your weaknesses, which can become opportunities for His strength to shine through, as 2 Corinthians 12:9 states, “And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.” LSB.

Seek the person of Jesus who died for your sins. Don’t worry about today and tomorrow. Make the gospel and reading God’s Word your passion. “Every day of our Christian experience,” writes Jerry Bridges, “should be a day of relating to God on the basis of His grace alone. We are not only saved by grace, but we also live by grace every day.” This needs to be the center of our lives because God knows your name; you are redeemed, justified, and being sanctified, all due to His grace. Remember that throughout your day.
