Your mindset isn’t something you create through positive thinking or mental discipline. Your heavenly mindset is something God develops in you as you learn to see from His perspective.
The Father doesn’t ask you to think differently through human willpower. He invites you to set your mind on things above – to learn His ways of seeing, thinking, and responding to every situation from your mind set upon the things above. What you hear the Father say, you say, what you see the Father do, you do.
Colossians 3:1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
The Father doesn’t give you a list of thoughts to think. He gives you His presence and teaches you His perspective as you walk WITH Him through real-life circumstances.
When earthly thinking tries to dominate – fear, doubt, resentment, lack of provision, limitation. Then you think about His promises, His provision, and then draw the fruit of the Spirit into your life, so that the peace of God flows like a river into you, and draw upon His faith, as you set your mind upon one of His promises, confessing it with your mouth out loud, so that the angels hear it and start working for you.
A heavenly mindset isn’t about disciplining yourself to be positive. It’s about learning to think WITH God about your life – seeing what He sees, knowing what He knows, and responding from His wisdom instead of human reasoning.
When you catch yourself thinking from earthly limitations, pause, step back into your spirit and ask God: “How do You see this situation? What perspective do You want to share with me? Who do you want to become to me in this situation? Teach me to think WITH You about this.”
Your mindset transformation happens as you learn to think God’s thoughts WITH Him. His thoughts will begin to spontaneously flow into your mind.
