Fusion: week of 2/23

FAMILY THEME: GOD'S PLAN FOR OUR MINDS

Colossians 3:2 ; Joshua 1:8 ; 1 Peter 1:13

We must direct our minds if we are not to become distracted

and deceived by the things of this world. We must use every

means of grace that God gives us to focus on Jesus.

1.  God's Pattern for Our Minds

     (Colossians 3:2)

     God has given us His Son to be our Savior. We can

     completely focus on Jesus because we are complete

     in Him.

 
2.  God's Guide for Our Minds

     (Joshua 1:8)

     The Word of God is truth for the mind and food for

     the soul. Meditation allows the Holy Spirit to take

     the Word of God and apply it to our lives.

     

3.  God's Desired Results for Our Minds

     (1 Peter 1:13)

     We need to prepare our minds to trust in God's grace

     in every situation. No one else will do that for us.
