Set Your Mind Higher

20
Aug

Colossians 3:2 – Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

Sometimes when people look toward the future, they don’t see how they will ever rise higher or fulfill their destiny. That’s because they are looking at things in the earthly, or natural, realm. But if we’ll set our minds higher, if we’ll set our minds on things above, we will have a different perspective.

The Scripture says in Second Corinthians that we walk by faith and not by sight. In other words, we have to believe it before we’re ever going to see it.

When we set our minds higher, we walk by faith. We see things God’s way. But when we walk by what we see in the natural realm, we can easily allow circumstances and fear to keep us from moving forward.

Make the decision today to set your mind on things above. Focus on the good things God has in store. Be determined to close the door on fear and doubt and choose to listen to that inner prompting of the Holy Spirit. As you walk and live by faith, you’ll see His promises come to pass, and you’ll move forward into the destiny He has prepared for you!

Father God, thank You for Your Word which lights the path You have for me. I choose today to keep my heart and mind focused on You. I choose to meditate on Your Word knowing that it feeds my faith and sets me in a position to receive every blessing You have in store for me. In Jesus’ Name… Amen!
