Mindset: The Principle of Effective Living!


" As a man thinketh, so is he "
Apostle Joshua Selman teaches that " mindset is a pattern of thinking based on an information".
Our mindsets are so powerful that they are inlets and outlets in the spirit realm; it'll amaze you to learn that ' a physical and spiritual climate of a territory is a reflection of the mindset of the people or person therein".
Somehow, " God has no limit in his dealings with man; but he is limited by man's thought patterns". From this reflection we will realise  that all men are not " equal " because our quality and relevance is determined by our ideology(ies). So, no matter how anointed you are; if your mindset is not of Christ, your Christian life will be barren.
What do our mindset do?;
* Our mindset is the principal motivator of our response to life issues
* Our mindset also sponsors our interpretations to life's event
Let's not forget that our life revolves around the quality of our ideology(ies). So we are helplessly a slave of our ideology(ies).
Our mindset should be that of Christ, because if you want to live effectively you must realise that life is not just a gift but a trust as well.
According to Apostle Selman, mindsets are formed via;
• Culture
• Level of exposure
• Association
• Family background
• Past experiences
• Failures and limitations
Hmmmmm... How is your climate like? Recognise and admit your mindset. Fight your mindset if your climate is not what reflects God desire for you.
God said, " bear much fruits that will last ".

Replace the information you've been feeding on with the right one. Even as you walk on your path to success, always remember that failure and set backs are inevitable.(See James 1:2-3).
"... wisdom is justified by her children",         
 you can't claim you have a right mindset because time will reveal what your idealogy(ies) is or are!
As you ponder on your present position, pray for the mind of Christ to perfect you. Don't forget that perfection comes through obedience.
Selah!

Our mindset(s) also are a limitation to how we exteem God and the result of our response to His instructions, and revelations. Just like Gideon in Judges chapter 6, the Angel of God had to use so many "human-thought-facts" to convince him into becoming who really is deep within. Though he heard of the sovereignty of God, society, family and peer-group if I may say were all working against him; thereby, influencing his mindset.
Nice piece.
Happy Anniversary.
