What Are You Thinking?

Keep Your Mind Tight!

Remember, Chaos is only an announcement that you are on purpose, and walking in The Way - John 10:19 “19 Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these sayings.”

Jesus was unintentionally, divisive, because He brought The Way, and due to their stiffed mindset, they were unable to receive The Way - The Truth and The Life! And when it does not conform to my thinking, I am in limbo, because I don’t believe His Word - John 10:24–28 “24 Then the Jews surrounded Him and said to Him, “How long do You keep us in doubt? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.” 25 Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s name, they bear witness of Me. 26 But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. 28 And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.”

You are in limbo because you have unbelief - God said it - nothing else matters! Mark 9:23 “23 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”” Most of our unsettling comes from “Hind Sight” and we become guilty because we know have wisdom to know what should have been done - could have been done, and we cause stagnation because the chaos that has been created due to former choices!

Paul had became a problem to their way of thinking, perplexing those orthodox Jewish leaders, making them so angry at Paul for seemingly causing trouble; Paul created a sedition (tumult, or insurrection) all because he stood on The Gospel of Jesus Christ - Y’all, we know that we will be persecuted for standing on The Promises of God, and holding on to His unchanging Word, but in the midst of Chaos, What Are You Thinking?

Paul, called by Jesus The Christ, was arrested in the Temple - Acts 21:30 “30 And all the city was disturbed; and the people ran together, seized Paul, and dragged him out of the temple; and immediately the doors were shut.”

Don’t fight the chaos, because you caused it by remaining in The Call and Purpose!

What Are You Thinking? The reason there is chaos around you may be because of Who you represent - remember, the enemy cannot stand you, he hates you because you oppose him - Genesis 3:15 “15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel.””

The enemy knows that his time is limited, he just refuse to realize his defeated state, so he spends time trying to get you to believe that he has won, when God has already provided us The Victory of him!

Paul had already been warned that he would face persecution in Jerusalem, but his mind was made up, fixed on walking in The Faith and knowledge of God! They may have arrested him, beat him, but they could not change his mind concerning God!

You may be in the midst of chaos right now!

You may seemingly be arrested because of your decision to remain in The Promises of God!

It may seem as if you cannot catch a break. . . But God. . . Said to let you know that you have power to change your thinking concerning your circumstance, and as Paul was in the midst of chaos, he did not allow the chaos to demote his thinking, he remained knowledgeable of who he is and Who sanctioned him for The Work!

Paul never allowed his thinking to be changed from the time he was changed on the way to Damascus, to now - From that point on Paul’s thinking was to do The Will of The Father Whom had given him grace to be “That I Am, What I Am”

King Agrippa thought he had power over Paul, as they thought with Jesus, but as Jesus said in John 10:18 “18 No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from My Father.”” Paul too Thought Himself Happy! Which epitomizes Proverbs 23:7

How can he “I Think Myself Happy!” in the midst of Chaos?

He testified of how he was once in darkness, persecuting the people of The Way! Acts 26:11

How he was met by Jesus The Christ after being knocked off his “High Horse. . .” Acts 26:12;

How his eyes were opened to The Truth and he was able to stand in Purpose and have the zeal for God, as he did for the law. . . Acts 26:22;

Paul demonstrated self-control Proverbs 23:2 “2 And put a knife to your throat If you are a man given to appetite.”

Cut away those things that tempt me into doing contrary to The Will of God! Grasps hold of who you are, and never let go!

When you have made your mind up to stand and remain focus in The Purpose, you will get to destiny, regardless of what seems to have been many failed attempts (Attempt = Venture, be put to the text, train, give experience to | Fail = To fall short, be wanting to, to be consumed by, to leave out)

Failing does not give you permission to stop wanting to, because you are facing chaos, persecution, trials, the testing, remember that these things come to make you stronger and wiser! And because you do not conformed to the circumstances, I know that in all things, I can Think Myself Happy! Because I have been transformed by The Power of God that lets me know He will not leave me nor forsake me!

So you asked me, What Am I Thinking?

His Goodness

His Promises

His Yes and Amen

His Word that keeps me

How He brought me from a mighty long way

How he rescued me and has kept me alive!

How He blessed my Mother with long-life!

How he gave us Mother’s which is another word for Love!

Jesus said, behold thy Mother!

How although, I was born with challenges, sickness and struggles, but yet I am still here - MaMa ensured that I was kept for a time like this! No, I may not have been able to do as others did because of the sicknesses that attempted to take me out, and now I realize why MaMa made me put on that hat - Because I was needed for this season!
