#1,062: Do You Love God With Your Mind?
Manage episode 435511324 series 2800784
I’m fascinated with the idea that we are to love God with all of our minds. The Bible sees the mind as a place of our thoughts, judgment, and intention. Our minds allow us to be rational, weigh evidence, make decisions about right and wrong, and to develop opinions. Our minds allow us to worship, praise God, love, repent, and trust.
Main Points:
1. Why is it important to consider loving God with our minds? Because during a typical day, we constantly use our minds to make decisions. How many thoughts pass through your mind every day? Several studies have shown that we think around 6,000 thoughts per day. Our mind is a huge part of who we are.
2. Loving God with our minds is critical because our minds are connected to our emotions and our actions.
3. God gives us the power to change how we think so through even our thoughts we are loving and honoring God.
Today’s Scripture Verses:
Mark 12:29-30 - “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’”
2 Corinthians 10:5 – “We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”
Colossians 3:2 - “Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.”
Romans 12:2 - “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
Colossians 1:9 - “So we have not stopped praying for you since we first heard about you. We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding.”
