The Mind of Christ

Jesus Christ our Saviour and perfect example came to earth with a singular purpose: to fulfill the Father’s will. Through His life, death, and resurrection, He demonstrated unwavering commitment and humility. Jesus made this His top priority, aligning His actions with the Father’s will above all else. As children of God, we’re invited to emulate Jesus’ example, aligning our lives with the Father’s will. By embracing this mindset, we will witness a profound impact on our relationships, our character, and our purpose, as well as experience transformation in our communities and the world.

Philippians 2:5 encourages us to adopt Christ’s mindset. This chapter reminds us to walk in love, harmony, and unity, as Jesus did. We’re exhorted to surrender selfish ambitions and conceit, embracing humility and valuing others above ourselves. Reflecting on Christ’s selfless example, we see that He prioritized our reconciliation with the Father, despite our unworthiness. He put our needs before His own, humbly surrendering to death on the cross for our sake. May our hearts be transformed to prioritize others’ needs even when its unfavourable to us just as Christ did. As we serve with humility and love, we’ll embody the mind of Christ, impacting lives and spreading His love.

πŸ™‡β€β™€οΈPrayer: Dear Jesus, I pray that I may think, act, and love like You. Guide me as I strive to embody Your humble and selfless mindset. Thank you Lord. Amen!

A Legacy of Faith:

The Godly Old Days

It’s alarming to see how far our generation has strayed from the godly principles laid down by our forebears, who held Scriptures in high esteem. What we now consider ‘progressive’ or ‘smart living,’ our ancestors would have deemed ‘destructive.’ We’ve either bent or broken the rules to suit our desires, abandoning the traditional values that once guided us. In today’s culture, traditional norms are being redefined, and the consequences of this shift are being felt in our communities and our spiritual foundations. Moreover, many believers have begun to embrace worldly culture, blurring the lines between faith and secularism.

Proverbs 22:28 cautions us “The previous generation has set boundaries in place. Don’t you dare move them just to benefit yourself.” This timeless wisdom reminds us that, despite our modern perspectives, the godly principles of old remain invaluable. As believers, upholding these principles is crucial in bringing light, transformation, and positive change to a world surrounded in darkness. Child of the light, this is your moment to shine! Stand unwavering in truth, uphold righteousness, and safeguard these timeless values for future generations. As a guardian of faith, pass on this wisdom to younger believers, and for those of us who are young in faith, humbly receive this heritage, that the torch of truth may continue to burn bright.

✝️ I encourage us all to hold fast to the ancient principles of faith and intentionally pass them on
