For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he will instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.

 What He Became to Us:

           

            Mind of Christ:  

 

1 Corinthians 2:16

16 For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he will instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.

 

            Too many times we Christians act like we have a mind of mush. We do things that cause us to get into trouble. Too often it is because we tried to think our way out of a jam and did something that got us into a worse situation. This verse says that we have the mind of Christ. That doesn’t mean that our minds will always think like Him. However, our minds do have at their disposal everything that is necessary to solve our problems. We have to allow Him to supply us with the solutions and then obey His instructions. This doesn’t mean that we wait until there is a problem to seek His thoughts. We need to seek Him every day. Then when the time comes to resolve an emergency situation, we will not be at a loss as to how to receive His directions for our lives.

 

If you could hear God speak, I believe this is what He would say:

            "You do need to worry about how to do this or to do that. I will show you how to do everything that you need to do. I will instruct you in the ways of righteousness as you go from day to day. You need not worry about the things that come against you. I will show you the way to be an overcomer. You need not fear failure and defeat. I was not defeated, though everyone believed I was. You will not ever be defeated if you listen to My Spirit as He guides you in everything you do.”

 

            30. I, together with my brothers and sisters in the Lord, have the mind of Christ. Thus, I should no longer rely only on my own thinking but should trust in His wisdom that comes to me and to those believers whom I trust.
