“Most of God’s children don’t know God” – Pastor Jide.
This is because though believers have been born again in their spirits many still live with their old minds. Our spirits are completely transformed at the confession of “Jesus is Lord” but our minds (emotions, wills and intellects) need renovation and realignment with our newborn spirits and the will of God.
The way we think and act are not automatically changed the day we give our lives to Christ or because a certain number of years have passed since we became Christians. Whatever God did for us in Christ and the new way of life He expects from us will make little or no sense to believers until we replace our old ways of thinking and doing things with the new lifestyle shown in God’s word. The new life Jesus purchased for us will have very little or no benefit for us until we are “…made new in the attitude of your
minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.” Eph.4:23-24.
