“For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.” – Romans 8:6 (KJV)
The Word of God is truly powerful. It has everything the born-again child of God needs to fulfill God’s dream for the Earth. It has blessings for our spiritual and physical wellbeing. Enjoying life and peace does not just happen to the child of God. It starts with having a spiritual mindset. To have a spiritual mindset, the born-again Christian must make meditation on God’s Word a priority and meditate on the Holy Scriptures day and night (Psalm 1:2–3, 119:97).
When your mind and heart are full of the Word, it will enhance your thoughts, decision making, choices, actions, and reactions, which will culminate into the life and peace that God wants you to enjoy. On the other hand, setting aside the Word of God and allowing your old nature of sin to have control of your mind can only lead to poor decision making, wrong choices, and wrong actions; the consequences of these are lack of progress, sin, diseases, and eventually death.
Beloved, make the Word of God your priority, walk in it, and submit to the leading of the Holy Spirit, and you will enjoy true life and peace in every area of your life. Hallelujah! God bless you!
Prayer Point: My loving Father, I am so delighted in your Word. I meditate on it day and night but sometimes forget to do it. Please remind me never to forget to practice your Word daily to enjoy true life and peace in every area of my life, in Jesus’ name. Amen!
