Bible Study for Ministry, Christian Women, and The Pastor's Wife ~I Am Fighting to Renew My Mind, Part 1 This past Sunday morning on the way to church, there was a war going on inside my mind. It was as if I were bombarded with one negative past situation after another. It felt like like someone had shot my mind with a shotgun filled with junk. There was this failure, that sin, this accusation, what this person did to me unjustly, how that person lied to me, how this person left me literally doing all the work, how this business endeavor left me broke, how... I found myself in the horrible and of "could'ofs, would'ofs, and should'ofs." God reminded me of a couple of verses. So thankful that I had taken the time and energy over the years to memorize Scripture! It's so hard to fight the enemy without any ammunition. The first verses was Romans 7:23. "But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members." The other verse is 2 Timothy 1:7. " For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." "Whoa!" I said to myself. "Theses thoughts are certainly not a gift from God. So I reject them totally." There is such a sweet promise in James 4:7 "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." In less than a small car's length, my heart and mind were renewed and full of joy. Be blessed in The Name above every name. Jesus! I know I am! Linda L Culbreth Christmas is coming! I should have titled the following video "3 Massive Mistakes Christian Women Make That Keep Them Feeling Overwhelmed, Overworked, and Headed for Christmas Burnout" because #3 - spend too many hours looking for unique gift items #2 - spend way too much money that strains the family budget #1 - giving gifts that that don't change lives for Christ Watch it anyway!
