A Sound Mind

(From The Minister's Heart)

I Timothy 1:7

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but or power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

***Paul is speaking to us today as he spoke to Timothy, his beloved son many years ago.Telling us to stir up the gift that God has given us on the inside..

When situations and events in our life do not turn out the way they should we must not be fearful or afraid of what may happen next. We should use the gift of prayer in us so that God can intervene on our behalf.

In the book of Acts it says, when the Holy Ghost come upon us we have power. Power to speak things into being; and call those things that are not as though they were."

Showing our love for one another as God shows His love for us at all times changes or takes away many confrontations that we would have dealt with, with our brethren.

***Difficult situations get us down, causes us to worry and sometimes go into a depressive mode. This should not happen in cases dealing with children of God.  When we have situations that are hard to handle, instead of looking at the situations, we will be looking toward God to handle them. When our mind is stayed on our Lord He keeps us in perfect peace. This is what causes us to have a sound mind, and within that mind- unspeakable joy and love that beareth all things.

When we can not do anything else in trouble times - we can stand on the word of God, after we have done all that we can do naturally.


Lets continue to have the mind of Christ - A sound mind stayed on the Lord.


Until we meet again - soon.
