THE WAY TO LIVE WITH THE MIND OF CHRIST
One of the greatest revelations of my life is: I can choose my thoughts and think things on purpose. In other words, I don't have to just think about whatever falls into my mind. This was a life-changing revelation for me because as Proverbs 23:7says, "As he [a man] thinks in his heart, so is he". I like to say it like this: Where the mind goes, the man follows.
Now God is concerned about the hidden man of the heart, which is our inner life. Our inner life is what we think about. And like the scripture above says, the way we think determines how we live and who we are. That's why we need to think about what we're thinking about.
It's so important for us to understand this because if we don't learn how to take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ (see2Corinthians 10:4-5), we won't live the life Jesus died to give us – a life of peace with God, peace with ourselves, great relationships, real joy and the ability to become all God has created us to be. It comes down to choosing to believe what God says (the truth) more than we believe our feelings, what other people say or our circumstances.
