In our house is a thermostat which controls the temperature of the house. We set the thermostat to a temperature we want, and then it tells the furnace or the air conditioner to kick in to reach that temperature. If you want to change the temperature in your house, you first need to change this little, yet powerful device called the thermostat.
Our minds are like a thermostat. They are the control center of our lives. And the bible teaches that IF WE WANT TO CHANGE OUR LIVES, WE FIRST NEED TO CHANGE OUR MIND. In fact, Romans 12:1-2 reads, “Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spirituala act of worship. 2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
I want you to take special note of that sentence: BUT BE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND. Change begins in your mind. It begins in side of you and then shows up outside of you. Like changing the thermostat and that changing the temperature, changing your mind will change the temperature of your life.
