Jeremy Johnson - There is More

Read - 1 Corinthians 13:11 Ephesians 6:10 Genesis 1:1-31, 2:8-25God made the environment and then He places the things that need to survive in that environment. When He created Eden He created us after, to place us in that environment because that is the thing we needed the most. Like a fish out of water we will not survive out of His presence. The enemy does everything he can to get us out of the environment we were designed to be in, because we are made from dirt and spirit there's a constant battle between our flesh and our spirit. That battle is won in the mind and in order to win we must put aside the following childish thought patterns: Personalizing Everything - Not everyone is mad at you. Magnifying Thoughts - Making mountains out of mole hills. Everything is Awful - Expecting the worst out come. Jumping to Conclusions - Assuming the end result. Mind Reading - Thinking that you know other's motives. Negative Filters - Using the lenses of past hurts. Emotional Reasoning - Letting your emotions be your guide. Blame Game - When it's everyone else's fault but yours Selective Thinking - Picking and choosing your narrative 10. Closed Minded - Seeing things only your way.Prayer is the one thing that can change our thoughts because in prayer we get to put on the mind of Christ. Prayer is learned by praying and it takes persistence from us in order to yield results. It is in prayer that we enter Eden which is God's open door into His presence. As we renew your minds in His word we will find our whole life changing!Application - What are some childish thought patterns that you need to break from your thinking? How can you begin to pray into a new direction today?Prayer - Father as I go on this journey to mature in my Spirit, I ask that you reveal all childish thoughts that are deeply rooted within my heart. Give me the courage to face my immaturities and allow you to prune and grow me. I pray that I will begin to put aside childish ways and stand firm in your truth today!
