Therefore, if you are in Christ, your thoughts 43 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 3: should be heavenly thoughts. Your focus should no longer be 44 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 3: on the worries and preoccupation of this world. Instead, you 45 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 3: should continuously be looking to God and focusing on Him. 46 00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 3: For a heavenly mindset requires constant cultivation, and you must 47 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: strive to maintain it.

This is your 52 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 3: opportunity to present yourself before the Lord. Confess your sins 53 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: to Jesus, ask him to forgive you and to cleanse you. 54 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 3: Take just a few minutes to dwell on the goodness 55 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 3: of God.

God is present and he is listening 62 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:57,239 Speaker 3: to you. The Bible says, ask and it shall be given. 63 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 3: Unto you. So ask the Holy sl Spirit to help 64 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 3: you cultivate a godly mindset. Ask him to renew your 65 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 3: mind as you read your Bible and to help you 66 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 3: focus on Christ. Ask him to remove your carnal mentality 67 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 3: and to put a desire within your heart for the 68 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 3: things of heaven. Remember, those who belong to Christ are 69 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,479 Speaker 3: to think of the things in heaven, not the things 70 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 3: on earth. This is not an automatic process or a 71 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: spontaneous occurrence. You must choose to set your mind on 72 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 3: godly things and choose to cultivate a spiritual mindset in Christ. 73 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 3: You must be vigilant to not allow carnal thoughts and 74 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 3: sinful desires to dominate your mind. Instead, invite the Holy 75 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,679 Speaker 3: Spirit to permeate your mind. Ask him to be present 76 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 3: in all you do and everywhere you go. Do this 77 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 3: and you will see God change your mindset from negativity 78 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 3: to positivity, from death to life. Be blessed.
