“Do not be conformed to the pattern of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.”

Romans 12:2

REBOOTS BEGIN WITH CHANGING MY MINDSET

1. Because my thoughts direct my life.

”Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts.”

Proverbs 4:23

2. Because my struggles happen in my mind

“I love to do God’s will so far as my new nature is concerned; but there’s something else deep within me
that is at war with my mind and wins the fight and makes me a slave to the sin within me. In my mind I want to be God’s servant, but instead I find myself still enslaved to sin.”

Romans 7:22-23

Because it’s where God’s spirit works in me!

“Let the Spirit change your way of thinking and make you into a new person. You were created to be like
God…”

Ephesians 4:23-24

RECIPE FOR A DAILY REBOOT

1. Everyday I must choose to feed my mind with the best thoughts

“Brothers and sisters, fill your minds with thoughts that are true, noble, right, pure, beautiful, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worth praising.”

Philippians 4:8

“People need more than bread for their life; they must feed on every WORD OF GOD.”

Matthew 4:4

Q. Am I feeding my soul every day with God’s Word?

Everyday I must choose to free my mind from destructive thoughts

“Those who are dominated by their sinful nature think about sinful things, but those who are
controlled by the Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit.”

Romans 8:5

How temptation works:

“Temptation comes from the lure of OUR OWN evil desires. These evil desires lead to evil actions, and then the evil actions lead to death.”

James 1:14-15

• Step 1: Desire
• Step 2: Doubt “Did God really say …?”
• Step 3: Deception – Believing a lie of Satan
• Step 4: Disobedience and Defeat

3. Everyday I must choose to focus my mind on what matters most

THINK ABOUT JESUS

“Keep your mind on Jesus Christ…”

2 Timothy 2:8

THINK ABOUT OTHERS

“Don’t just think about your own affairs, but be interested in others, too, and in what they are doing.”

“Let us think about each other and help each other to show love and do good deeds.”
