Bible Texts: Philp.2:5, Jn.14:26, Mk.9:29, Gal.4:19, Rom.5:5, Rev.12:11, Lk.6:45, Pro.4:23, Lk.18:1, Matt.26:41-42, 2Cor.5:17, Jn.3:4-8, 1Cor.15:33
What kind of mind must you have to influence your thoughts, actions, and conduct towards living like the good and godly husbandman? Until you have the mind of Christ, that is, the Spirit of Christ in you, you will never attain the character of Jesus Christ that makes you the good and godly man, husband, and father.
Let this mind be in you, even the mind of Christ (Philp.2:5)
The word of God says that the mind you must have is the mind of Christ. What this means is that your thought life must align with what Jesus Christ thinks. At every point you want to make a decision or take action, you must always ask “what will Jesus Christ do in this matter and this circumstance?”. This will help you develop your thought pattern in the light of the life of Jesus Christ. You must remember that your mind is the seat of decision; hence, you must guide and guard it diligently (Pro.4:23, Lk.6:45).
But how do I have the mind of Christ and think like Christ would?
For you to think like Christ would, you must have a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ (Jn.3:4-8, 2Cor.5:17). The second action you must take is to be careful with the type of books you read, the songs you listen to, the films you watch and the relationships you keep. All of these are influences and they can either influence you to think like Christ or think like the world (1Cor.15:33). You must also engage the forces of prayer and fasting so that you can empowered by the Holy Ghost to refuse evil thoughts into your mind and accept only good and righteous thoughts (Ps.51:10, Mk.9:29, Mk.14:38, Jn.14:26, Gal.4:19)
As the husbandman, you cannot and will not grow to become good and godly if you do not read the word of God, think on the word of God, and pray the word of God into your life. Hence, you must give attention to studying the Bible, meditating on it, and acting on what it commands. That is how your mind can be like that of Jesus Christ.
Hallelujah!
