*THE POWER OF THE RENEWED MIND* (The End)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"In conclusion, my friends, fill your minds with those things that are good and that deserve praise: things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and honorable."*
(Philippians 4: 8 (GNB))
_Bible Insight:_
In concluding this series on the power of the renewed mind, let's look at additional practices we must internalize and make a part of our day to day activities. We can renew our mind in doing the following:
4. By deliberate intentional thought management:
Philippians 4:8 (Amp) says *"For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them]."*
Guard your heart with all diligence. What enters your mind determines the output of your life. It is YOUR responsibility to manage your thought process. It is up to you to ensure that what goes into your mind, will be in compliance with Philippians 4:8. When you do this, you are mastering the practice of renewing your mind.
5. By discovering who you are in Christ.
Find all the "IN HIM" scripture, meditate on them and practice their reality. Let's take Romans 8:37 (KJV), it says *"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us."* This means YOU are MORE THAN CONQUERORS. This means you are victorious over the vicissitudes of life.
Another example, is found in Romans 8:32 (KJV), and it says *"He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?"* This simply means in and through Christ, you have access to all things that God can offer! Hallelujah!
This too is important: 1 Corinthians 1:30 (KJV) says *"But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:"* You are an explanation of God's wisdom in Christ. You are also a carrier of the wisdom of God through Christ. Same thing for wisdom, applies to righteousness, sanctification and redemption.
6. By choosing the right association.
Wrong people with great potential get derailed by wrong association. Don't ever allow your mind renewal get derailed or distracted by being involved with the wrong association.
_MEDITATION:_
*Make this declaration: My mind is renewed and my mind continues to undergo daily renewal treatment as I apply myself to the word and to obey the Spirit of God in all things in Jesus name. Amen*
(Culled from Sunday Message By Pastor Evangelist K. C. Onyegbuna)

*THE POWER OF THE RENEWED MIND* (IV)
_Key Bible Text:_
*And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord* (Ephesians 5:18-19 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
By doing all of the following, we keep our minds renewed and by so doing, we keep our life transformed:
1. Speak to yourself in Psalms, Hymns and spiritual songs. (Ephesians 5:19.)
The atmosphere you create around you, become your reality. When you sing songs that take lyrics from Psalms, and Hymns that tell you about Elohim, and spiritual songs that get you going strong in God, you will automatically place your mind on some sort of auto renewal.
Conversely, when you sing songs that bring the world and its temptations alive, and you dance to beats and music videos where twerking, smoking and clubbing is the order of the day, you have created an atmosphere that's a strategic minus as long as engaging mind renewal is concerned.
2. Develop an intimate fellowship with God.
The intimacy of fellowship is what defines a strong relationship. You can have a relationship that is going no where but once you exercise yourself to a deep and consistent fellowship I.e. Koinonia, you know that relationship is going to another level. Don't just be in a relationship with God, rather deepen your fellowship/communion with God. Then, you will have a relationship that really help you achieve mind renewal.
3. Nurture the habit of constantly and always speaking in tongues. (Romans 8:26)
The baptism in tongues is not a badge to show you are baptized but a tool to service your fellowship with God. Your relationship with God is an empty container but your fellowship with God is the content. When you fill your fellowship with God with great acts like speaking in tongues (among others as already mentioned) you create a strong mind renewal atmosphere.
_MEDITATION:_
*IN YOUR mind renewal journey, you can not grow beyond the atmosphere and activities you constantly engage in*

*THE POWER OF THE RENEWED MIND* (III)
_Key Bible Text:_
*God's Spirit makes us loving, happy, peaceful, patient, kind, good, faithful, gentle, and self-controlled. There is no law against behaving in any of these ways.* (Galatians 5:22-23 (CEV))
_Bible Insight:_
You will not be disqualified from being in God's eternal kingdom, as long as you have been infused with the new nature of Christ. Everyone born of the Spirit and the word, will not be disqualified as long as they do not neglect the practice of mind renewal. How can you practice mind renewal?
Again, remember that It is not enough to answer altar call, you must be transformed. It is not enough to answer or attend full membership class or believers class or workers class, or even serve in a unit, or be a pastor, but you must also be transformed. And for you to be transformed, you must daily practice mind renewal. How do you practice mind renewal?
Before you give yourself a pat in the back, thinking you are not the type that needs mind renewal, please pay attention. Do you know that, for instance habouring hatred or jealousy or envy etc are all evidence of the need of mind renewal? Mind renewal is not for only those you think commit some very known sins. Mind renewal is for all believers. Mind renewal is the way to effectively put off the old man and put on the new nature.
One of the ways to carry out mind renewal is by feeding on the word. This means making time to daily read, listen to, or discuss the word. This is done both by personal reading/study and by group or corporate reading and discussion of the word.
Another way to renew your mind, is by meditating on the word. To meditate is to brood or reflect upon.
Brood over the word like a mother hen broods over her eggs until they become chicks. Let the word become alive you, let it be made flesh in you.
Think deeply over the word.
_MEDITATION:_
*"But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof."* (Romans 13:14 (KJV)

*THE POWER OF THE RENEWED MIND* (II)
_Key Bible Text:_
*And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.* (Ephesians 4:23-24 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
It is heart breaking to imagine that we are living in times when people when contemplating business, would rather not deal with persons who introduce themselves as "Pastors", "Church Members" or "Born Again Christians" 🥺
The urgent need of the hour is to return to deliberate and intentional mind renewal. The old man or old nature has been crucified with Christ but until you renew your mind, you will not live out the reality of the crucified life. The old man is dead or truly crucified to the extent that you engage in mind renewal.
Mind renewal is a daily and deliberate exercise that calls for intentional and proactive steps. A passive or casual believer will remain under the sway of the old nature/man until there is a consistent practice of mind renewal.
You should ask yourself, "How do I renew my mind"? This question is one you should take seriously and until you get the answer and start practicing them, you are not yet freed from the old nature. Living subject to the old nature, amount to living in the flesh. Living in the flesh, even as a believer, attracts a grave consequence-- disqualification from the Kingdom of God! 🥺
_MEDITATION:_
*"Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.* (Galatians 5:19-21 (KJV))

*THE POWER OF THE RENEWED MIND*
_Key Bible Text:_
*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.* (Romans 12:2 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
The tragedy of modern Christianity is that people are born again but are not transformed; convicted but not converted; church members but not disciples.
What does _renew_ mean? To renew means to bring new life into something; renew means to start over again. To renew means to bring up to date. To renew your mind, means to overhaul, recondition, regenerate, rejuvenate, remodel, restore your mind.
This mind renewal is the missing factor and the reason many so called believers are still lacking behind in being like Christ.
There are many evidences of unrenewed minds today in the body of Christ. This is exemplified in many ways today. Including but not limited to accounts such as so called christian brothers will defrauding one another; so called christian marriages being reported as having over 80% of them contributing to divorce cases in Nigeria; and many other unpleasant accounts.
Ephesians 4:20-21 (KJV), states *"But ye HAVE NOT SO LEARNED CHRIST;If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:"* Learning Christ means to unlearn the old man or nature and put on the new man through mind renewal.
_MEDITATION:_
*"That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;"* (Ephesians 4:22-23 (KJV))
