Renewing our minds through Christ

A Living Sacrifice

12 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Humble Service in the Body of Christ

3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.

Romans 12:1-3

Life is full of changes. In childhood, we have tastes that change as we enter adolescence. As adults, we no longer have the same perceptions as when we were young. We grow up and our minds change.

When we are born again (2 Corinthians 5:17), we die to the world and our worldly mind is also buried. We see beyond what our eyes can see, we see with the eyes of the spirit. We no longer cling to the desires of the world, but seek the things above (Colossians 3:2).

Transforming the mind is also part of being "born again". This transformation is daily and continuous, moving away from old habits and things that limit our mind. When we live God's Word, our mind is enlarged and we experience the real meaning of life, God's love.

Renewing the mind through Christ

  • Becoming a new creation is an active process. Give up old habits and everything that distances you from God.
  • The Bible is a manual for the renewal of our minds. Read it daily.
  • Seek the company of those who are also seeking to renew their minds. Grow in communion.

Pray:

Lord God, I no longer have the same mind I had before. You teach me more every day. Help me to transform my mind, I want to think more about the things above, and I want to help more minds to be transformed by you. Amen.

Spirit of truth vs. spirit of error

We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.
- 1 John 4:6

All the sheep know the voice of their shepherd (John 10:27). Whoever knows the Word of God recognizes when a voice sounds strange. Through the Bible, we have the guidelines to discern what comes from God and what does not.

Whoever does not have the Word as a reference is exposed to the risk of obeying any voice. Every voice that does not correspond to the Word of God can lead us into error. Therefore, it is very important to be attentive and to discern everything we hear (Acts 17:11).

We can only discern the spirit of error if we know the Spirit of truth.

Being led by the Spirit of truth

  • Seek the Truth; seek the Word of God.
  • There is no such thing as “half-truths.” If you are in doubt about something, consult the Word of God.
  • Light dispels darkness. Truth drives away deception.

Prayer:

Lord, Your Word guides me in the midst of darkness; Your presence keeps me from deception. I want to continue being led by Your Spirit. In Jesus’ name, amen.

The love of God calms the heart

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.
- Proverbs 3:3

When life gets difficult and the heart becomes restless, it’s comforting to know that God’s love is always with us. It’s as if He were a warm embrace that soothes us from within. In the Bible, we find messages that are like medicine for our soul.

God’s love and faithfulness will always be with us, as it is written in Proverbs: “Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart” (Proverbs 3:3). This is amazing because it reminds us that we are not alone. Jesus also said something special: “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28).

When we read the Bible, we realize that every part of it is like a message of love that calms our hearts. Prayer, which is like talking to God, becomes a moment of peace. Knowing that we are loved in a unique way gives us a special kind of confidence.

Even when things are difficult, we can rest knowing that God’s love is a safe harbor. The Bible is like an anchor that holds our hearts steady, inviting us to live in the peace that only God can give. When we surrender to His love, we find a true peace that is hard to explain, but that makes us feel well deep inside.

Dive into God’s love

  • Set aside time each day to read God’s Word. Find comfort and guidance in the Scriptures.
  • Cultivate a life of prayer, talking to God about your feelings, gratitude, and challenges. This practice strengthens trust and brings serenity to the heart.
  • Show God’s love to others through kind actions and words of encouragement.

Prayer:

Lord, calm my heart. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, surround me. Strengthen my faith, reminding me of Your unfailing love. Guide me in tranquility, knowing that You are in control. Amen.

What is the Daily Devotional

The Daily Devotional is a special moment of your day that you dedicate to having a precious time of intimacy with God. It is very simple to establish an exciting routine of discovery and spiritual growth. You will achieve this by setting aside a moment each day to draw near to the Lord. During the Devotional, you will read a Bible verse with a meditation on the text. Then, you will meditate on the teachings and how to apply them in your life. In the end, you can pray.

How to do your Daily Devotional

Here are some tips for making the most of reading the Bible message during the Daily Devotional:

  1. Set aside a moment and choose a specific place: your devotional time will be more beneficial if you set aside the hustle and bustle and invest in a pleasant time alone with God.
  2. Read the verse or Bible passage attentively: develop a lifestyle committed to the Word of God every day and avoid distractions.
  3. Read the daily meditation: reflect and try to understand God's purpose for your life through the comments.
  4. Practical application: jot down your findings and don't forget to put into practice everything you have learned through the Bible.
  5. Share what you learned: try to share with people around what God has been teaching you in your moments of daily devotion as you go about your daily conversations and interactions.

Don't forget the importance of living a life fully committed to the Word of God!
