ABILITY TO PROVE THE GOOD, THE ACCEPTABLE AND THE PERFECT PT 8 _ The Progressive Mind

THE EXCELLING WORD FOR TODAY


 Ability To Prove The Good, The Acceptable and The Perfect Pt 8 _ The Progressive Mind 


Romans 12:2 
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. 

You are welcome to a fresh new day, which you shall surely Excel in Excellence. 

Previously we came to understand that to have a mind under renewing, which will be able to make a choice of the good, the acceptable and the perfect will of God, you must embark on the mind renewing processes. Read the previous post for further explanation. 

In today's devotion, we will be looking into further processes of Renewing The Mind. 

II. Develop Extra Hunger 
“Blessed are they that hunger and thirst for they shall be filled". Desire a new mind today then the progress of the renewal will begin. Extra hunger is the fuel that ignites progressive change. Get dissatisfied with the old system of your mind and develop a fresh and extra hunger for a changing mind, a progressive mind. Continuous hunger breeds fresh experiences. More hunger is more food; satisfaction too quick is satisfaction too small; arrival too early is arrival too minute. Like the saying goes an hungry man, is an angry man. But i have discovered that an hungry man is not just an angry man but also an eager man. So develop an extra hunger today, that will make you eager for a progressive mind and make you angry over all conformity aid and tools of the world. 

III. Surmount The Feelings 
In the achievements of life, feelings are very delicate to be allowed to take lead. The feelings may not be wrong but for the leading, definitely it will end up wrongly. Just like the feelings of sexual urge; it is not wrong to have erect ions, but when your erection becomes your direction, destruction awaits you. Feelings are very unstable thereby making change difficult. That is why if one must achieve an outstanding result he/she must learn to surmount feelings. Many people live very unstable lifestyle due to their feelings. When they feel sexy, they dress sexy; when they feel horny they go after sex; when they feel depressed and bored, they go for intoxicants like alcohol, cigarettes, drugs, etc; when they feel annoyed, they act weird; when they feel like bored with their spouse, they file for divorce; when they feel like they are no more happy with their church anymore, they keep changing churches; when they feel like they do not like you, they deliberately fight you without a cause and so on and so forth, so unstable in all their ways because they keep following after feelings. Always scrutinise your feelings through thorough thinking before acting. Surmount your feelings today and have a progressive mind. 

Watch out for the next part of this series. Shalom!

Heaven As Written By A 17 Year Old Boy

I can only imagine... Heaven as written by a 17 Year Old Boy  This is excellent and really gets you thinking about what will happen in Heaven. 17-year-old Brian Moore had only a short time to write something for a class. The subject was what Heaven was like. "I wowed 'em," he later told his father, Bruce. It's a killer. It's the bomb. It's the best thing I ever wrote." It also was the last. Brian's parents had forgotten about the essay when a cousin found it while cleaning out the teenager's locker at Teays Valley High School in Pickaway County Brian had been dead only hours, but his parents desperately wanted every piece of his life near them, notes from classmates and teachers, and his homework.  Only two months before, he had handwritten the essay about encountering Jesus in a file room full of cards detailing every moment of the teen's life. But it was only after Brian's death that Beth and Bruce Moore realized that thei...

PARENTAL DECEPTION

PARENTAL DECEPTION According to Child Psychology, “a child’s personality is usually formed; that is, has built the basis of what he/she will be in the future between age zero (0) to age six (6)”. After which he/she starts conforming to the external factors surrounding him/her in-line with the basic foundation he/she has formed. But many parents and adults do not know this, while few who know are not really conscious of it.   Many grownups think that children between this age range are too tender to know anything in life. So they keep isolating them in some basic training of life thereby depriving them from building a solid character structure that can sustain them in their everyday conformity to life at large. “Children are heritage of the LORD and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that have his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the ...
