And in that second chapter of Philippians, Paul tells us that we need to have the same humility, the same love, the same compassion, and the same obedience as Jesus as we relate to each other in the family of God and as we reach out to the world around us to tell them about His love.
When your mind is steadfast, then it is firmly fixed in place. Isaiah 26 says, “…whose mind is stayed on thee…” The word ‘stayed’ is important here because it means your mind is not subject to change. Your mind is firm in belief, determination, or adherence.
We cannot blame other people for what we don’t have. Our mindset is often what hinders us. When our minds are stuck in impoverished thinking, slave thinking, slothful thinking, lazy thinking, we are in the same place and have never stepped out and trusted God.
“I beseech you therefore brethren by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
It’s impossible to take in God’s word diligently and increasingly over time and not become more like Him. An ongoing plan to read His word, say it, memorize it, write it, meditate on it, trust it, and then read and say it again will not only allow God to overtake our minds, but will also let Him drive our actions and eventually pervade our being.
To keep the devil from gaining a foothold in your life, you must develop a sound mind that is completely controlled and directed by the Holy Spirit.
