RENEW YOUR MIND – Daily Devotional

SCRIPTURAL TEXT:
And be renewed in the spirit of your mind.
Ephesians 4:23

Though we were born with innate abilities and our mind blank, information and programs are consciously and unconsciously written on our mind over time. This occurs by the people in our lives, the things we hear, see, and experience, our environments, our traditions and other factors. All these create in us mindsets which eventually limit us or propel our success.

Knowing this, you must deliberately search out, identify and replace negative information programmed in you over time, with God’s word. This is a continuous process. For instance someone struggling with fear can exchange the information in his mind that programmed fear, with the word of God by studying Isaiah 41:10, 2 Timothy 1:7, Psalm 23:4, etc.

The consciousness of the presence of God with you when you study and meditate on these scriptures is enough to send the spirit of fear packing. A once fearful and timid person can become so fearless and courageous by the renewal of the mind with the Word of God. This applies to every other aspect of your life. You can divorce any unpleasant experience by the renewal of your mind. Glory to God!
