We think and imagine how things will play out according to the decisions we make and others make around us. From the Imagination Comes Scenarios By Which We Live. God never intended the mind and its thoughts to be purely cerebral, meaning in the brain alone, He meant for thoughts to permeate and transcend into experience.ī. But the word is immediately followed up with images and concepts and word pictures that give you the ability to feel and to experience what you think. Last week, I didn’t mean for you to walk away thinking that you never have a word pop into your brain. That’s not to say you don’t think in words. You may think of Jesus immediately, or you may think of heaven or pearly gates or salvation.

We don’t know how to biblically use it.Īnother example, when you hear the words, eternal life, images that revolve around that concept or idea come into your mind. Our problem is we don’t know how to properly use the imagination. But the concept, the idea of freedom, doesn’t just stay some abstract concept, it becomes an image by which your mind can work and grasp that idea. You may think of those who have died for our freedom. For example, the idea of freedom will bring to the mind certain images. Some ideas we accept as truth and others we reject. The information forms ideas ideas are nothing more than your perception of reality. Our Minds Think Primarily Through the Power of Imagination. But, for a few minutes, let’s do a brief review.Ī.
Today I want us to go a little bit further because I really didn’t get to discuss how to do that I just introduced it at the very end of the message. That’s what we discussed last week, how the mind works and what it means to keep our minds stayed on Him. He will keep it as a sentry guarding my mind. And if I do my part, He will then guard my mind. God has stated through His prophet Isaiah that He will keep us in perfect peace if we will do our part, which is to keep our minds fixed upon Him. He’s waiting for you to do something-to do what He said. “Oh no, there they go again, trying to do something for Me.” But God doesn’t think that. It’s like we believe if we did something for God that God would be frantic and beside Himself. That’s how we view God and our relationship. There was always something wrong with the transporter and Scotty had to, at the very last moment, fix it and-amazingly Kirk was out of trouble. Use it.įor the most part, we are more like Captain Kirk waiting for Scotty to beam him, we’re waiting for God to show up and get us out of trouble. When it comes to using grace we need to be more like a racecar driver. His only concern is to make sure his engine is performing to the maximum on the fuel that he is using. He’s not interested in fuel conservation.

A racecar driver does not worry about gas mileage. There is plenty of grace for those who will consume it, use it, like a racecar driver at the Daytona 500.
We are not to wait on God to give grace, because grace is waiting on us. The problem is-we think God needs to do something before we can interestingly, God is thinking the same about us. We are waiting for God to zap us, energize us, make us feel something that engages us to do something for the kingdom. Passivity is a huge enemy for Christians. You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You.
