Many people go through a process of writing ‘New Year
Resolutions’ at the beginning of a new year. Successfully changing a behaviour
requires us to change our paradigms (how we see the world). The Bible tells us
we need to renew our minds. That is a big and important process that is easier
said than done. In the next 12 devotions I would like to learn and share with
you how to: Renew your mind
Do
not conform any longer 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.
ولا
تشاكلوا هذا الدهر. بل تغيّروا عن شكلكم بتجديد اذهانكم لتختبروا ما هي
ارادة الله الصالحة المرضية الكاملة.
Romans 12:2
being
confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to
completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
وَلِي
ثِقَةٌ فِي هَذَا الأَمْرِ بِالذَّاتِ: أَنَّ الَّذِي بَدَأَ فِيكُمْ عَمَلاً
صَالِحاً سَوْفَ يُتَمِّمُهُ إِلَى يَوْمِ الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ.
Philippians 1:6
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself and meditate on
it:
Abba
Father, thank You for Your abundant blessings and inseparable love. Thank You
that You want to revolutionize my mind as well as my soul. LORD, I pray that out of Your
glorious riches You strengthen me with power through Your Spirit in my inner
being, so that I can change my thinking and
in turn change my attitude and behaviour.
Through the supernatural change agent; the Holy Spirit; change O’ Lord all my
entrenched mental configurations. I pray that You make me willing to change. I
know that You began the transformation in my life when I accepted Jesus Christ
as my Lord and Saviour and am confident that You will carry it through on to
completion. I pray in Jesus’ Holy
Name. To Him be the power, the glory, the
majesty, the blessings, and the dominion forever and ever, Amen.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
