“When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.” Psalms 94:19 NLT
Welcome to Mindset Monday. Take a moment to notice Ray’s photo of the sky wheel. It is different from yesterday because it is moving. Take a moment to read our key verse from Psalms. I shared the New Living Translation because I liked the idea of having “renewed cheer.” If you read the New International Version, God brings us joy, “When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.” Have you ever had doubts? Have you ever had anxiety?
Consolation is the comfort we receive from the Holy Spirit. We read in Romans 15:13 NIV, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” What is your mindset today? Last week Deborah shared with us to be mission-minded, to allow our minds to be transformed, to be bold, to be thankful, and to have endurance, perseverance, and patience through it all.
When life feels like you can’t get off the moving sky wheel, turn to the Holy Spirit for comfort and peace. When I think of God being my comforter, I think of “Jehovah Shalom,” the Lord is peace. If you missed Deborah’s live on “Mindset”, I encourage you to go back and listen. Let’s go to the Lord in prayer.
Jehovah Shalom, Lord my peace, I sit at your feet for comfort. Fill me with joy and renew my cheer so that I can have a mindset set on heavenly realms. Forgive me when I doubt and celebrate with me when I persevere with bold faith. Today is the day you have made, I choose to trust in the power of your Holy Spirit. In the name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
