Fix your thoughts on Jesus

Fix your thoughts on Jesus By Samuel McDermott


Scripture: Hebrews 3 vs. 1 (NIV)
Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest.

Life is a wonderful adventure bespeckled with tests and hurdles along the way. Responsibilities, social life, and school may make it all seem like a juggling act. Consequently, we tend to become distracted and focus on the wrong things, thus leaving our minds open to the negativity of the enemy.

Your thoughts can be the most brutal battleground to fight for. Nevertheless, when you keep your thoughts fixed on Jesus, He will guard your heart and mind and keep you pure. When we set our thoughts on Jesus, we do not dwell on the negative things of this world but rather on the positive attributes of the Kingdom of God.

Song: "Turn your eyes upon Jesus."

Prayer: Heavenly Father, maker and sustainer of the universe, I ask your forgiveness for being too bogged down with the cares of this world. I seek your direction and peace in every aspect of my life. Thank you for the heavenly hope I have in you and that your perfect will and destiny for my life will be fulfilled. Amen.

From this passage, we understand that faith requires trust in the almighty God, who is the object of it all, as seen in scripture. Faith in God requires sharing in all aspects of His life. We also understand that this includes the power of His resurrection, sharing in His suffering, and imitating Christ in His death. The power of His resurrection is the spirit that took His dead body and brought it back to life. This is the same power that we should desire to have within us—the same power that raised Him from the dead will come into our souls and raise us up. When we allow this power to take control of our lives, self-destructive things such as unforgivene...
