The Right Mindset

Romans 12: 1-2.

The mindset could be a prison for a man, the mindset is where you make things happen, to existence. Before things become a reality, it must be conceived first in one's mind. Things like education, experience and cultural background all influence our mindset. Mind renewal is also important to stay relevant in today's generation.

Three important mindset that God expects us to develop.

1. THE MINDSET OF A WITNESS.(1john 1: 1-4).

The multitudes, the disciples, and the witness. The multitudes are the crowd, the ones following the trends of Jesus Christ. In every situation of life, you see multitudes. The moment Jesus Christ was arrested, the multitudes were nowhere to be found. There was no conviction in them(the multitudes) because of the mindset in them, they like to stay at a place of comfort without any sense of belonging. They move to every place that trends, they flee once they see problems.

The second set of people are the DISCIPLES, they have conviction and follow faithfully and obedient. However, sometimes the disciples only tend to be religious without understanding the matters of the spiritual. Except through the conviction of the holy spirit, many disciples end up only being religious. Many disciples even follow God without having a clear definition of who God is. It took Thomas, one of the disciples too long before be acknowledged God as his Lord.

The third set of people are the WITNESSES. (1 John 1:1).

God expect us to move from the multitudes and the disciples to the witnesses. A witness believed in something that exists from the beginning. A witness has a revelation and is connected to the beginning. A witness operates on the basis of the practicals, what can be experienced and not based on baseless theory. A witness manifest the reality of God's word. A witness is a living testimony and God expect us to be a witness. A witness manifest the proof of the reality of God.

2. THE MINDSET OF A KING. (Revelation 5:10).

What God have for man is dominion, God expects us to have the mindset of a king, not the mindset of a servant but if someone who have authority, power and dominion to control things. God did not create you to be a servant, you must have a mindset of a king no matter your

present circumstances or limitations. The mindset of a king is the mindset of a dominion, a king does not fear or beg to eat. A king is bold and courageous in all adversity. Having a mindset of a king will affect everything you do as a christian.

3. THE MINDSET OF A PRIESTHOOD.(Revelation 5:10).

The mindset of a priesthood is very crucial. The priesthood is God's system of bringing Man to God. A priest reconcile man back to God, a perfect example of Jesus Christ. The first function of a priest is to reconcile people to God. As a christian, if nobody have ever known God through you, then you're not a good christian. Every Christian is a priest unto God to bring souls to God's kingdom. God hates people being unfruitful.

Another function of the priesthood is the function of a prayer warrior, one who builds the altar of prayer, priests who link heaven and earth wherever they go.

Our mindset is generally a treasure land where the realities are imagined first. As christians, we must be constant in the renewal of our mind because the world wants relevant and up to date Christians. Renewal of the mind to a right mindset comes from thorough studying of God's word and meditation. The right mindset will lead to a right living which is pleasing to God. We must align our thoughts with God's own.

If we are called of God, then we must have the same mindset as he has.
