Renewal of Mind
Teaching:
The mindset of this world is focused on personal pleasure.
The renewed mindset is focused on God’s pleasure.
Renewal of mind leads us to knowing God’s will.
Application:
Offer ourselves as a living sacrifice.
Do not conform to the mindset of this world.
Be transformed by the renewal of mind.”
Discussion:
“Why do we have to change our mindset from focusing on ‘What makes me happy?’ to ‘What makes God happy?”
Prayer:
Lord, search my heart and my mind. Let me know if there is any sinful mindset within me. I pray that You will renew my mind from being worldly to being godly. Help me to focus on Your pleasure—on what makes You happy. I know You have made me to live a life pleasing to You. May my life be different from those around me. Transform me, change me, and may I grow in faith and obedience so that I may become more like Christ. I pray this in Jesus’ name, amen!
