I have loved this series at Pursuit! It ranks pretty high up there on my favorites list! It's been all about practical reasons to live in Victory over sin and satan. Last night, Hux taught on the significance of the mind and how our thoughts dictate everything! Satan cannot have our hearts so he tries to control our minds! Here's a catch-up if you missed it.
We've also been taking questions from students during this series and been answering them before the message. Last night, we answered. "Why do bad things happen to good people?" Here was the answer:
"For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds." 2 Corinthians 10:3-4
- We can have victory if we think right!
- Your mind is not a trash can. Don't let people throw garbage in it. What goes in WILL come out!
- What you think determines how you feel which determines how you act!
- We are so focused on the size of our problems that we lose sight of the size of our God!
- God wants our minds to be fixated on things that matter, and PEOPLE matter!
"For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." Hebrews 4:12
- Change occurs when we take control of our thoughts!
"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." Philippians 4:8
- Pure thinking leads to pure living!
- When you a sew a thought, you reap an action. When you sew a habit, you'll reap a destiny.
"You keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you because he trusts in you." Isaiah 26:3Last night, Pursuit saw 175 students, 9 new guests, and 1 rededication!! Celebrate!
