ABILITY TO PROVE THE GOOD, THE ACCEPTABLE AND THE PERFECT PT 7 _ The Progressive Mind

THE EXCELLING WORD FOR TODAY 


Ability To Prove The Good, The Acceptable and The Perfect Pt 7 _ 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, we must prevent the mind viruses. Read the previous post for further explanation. 

In today's devotion we shall go on with the tips for renewing the mind. 

5. Embark On The Mind Renewing Process 
Renewing the mind is changing the mind from its old functions to new and better functions in a continuous approach. The greatest challenge with having a progressive mind is change. Change is a process not a platform; it is a journey not a destination; it is the streets and roads not the bus stops. The actualisation of change is not based on a promise but is based on precepts and process. Develop a hunger for change. Extra hunger is the fuel that ignites change in progress. The human mind is a channel through which things-to-be are coming into the realm of things-that-are. So also the human mind is the action room; the thought is the processing area, while the attitude is the product. The core purpose for renewing the mind is to have a personality transformation. In other wards, for you to be transformed, you must pass through renewing. Let us go further to itemizing the keys for renewing the mind. 

I. Guide Your Gates 
In addition to stopping the conformity of the mind to wrong standards and preventing the mind viruses, you also have to develop self-control. Your self control is your gate man. If you can guide your gates then you can guide your mind. If you can control majorly what you see and hear, then you can control your products. In Proverbs 25:28 the scripture says “Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self-control."_NIV. In Proverbs 16:32 the scripture says that “He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, he who rules his (own) spirit than he who takes a city". The scripture further encouraged us in Proverbs 4:23, “Keep your heart with all diligence for out of it spring the issue of life"_NKJV. From the documented scriptures of the bible, it is an established truth that lack of self-control over your mind makes you vulnerable, proned to attack and wrong conformity of the world. Watch out for the continuation of this segment in our next part. Shalom!
