NEW WINDOWS

It takes the revelation power of the Holy Spirit to demolish and remove the glass windows of our prejudices, bias, racism and stereotypes. These are the windows that filter our veiw of other people. It's not enough that the glass of these windows be broken, every piece of glass must be removed and then replaced. Not even the tiniest shard of glass can be allowed to remain; for the tiniest piece has the potential to poison the minds of many generations. Once removed, the Holy Spirit can then replace the old window with the "New Window" the mind of Christ. We will then be able to view others through the heart of God.

THE POWER OF KIND WORDS

A kind word can heal many wounds. 

Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, sweet to the mind and healing to the body.

                         Proverbs 16:24 AMP

HEALTH MANAGEMENT

The soul (emotions/thinking) is the gateway to 10000 illnesses.(modified Japanese proverb)

Philippians 4:6-9. NLT 

Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.

SELF-DENIAL: GOD'S PLAN FOR CHANGE



For as you know him better, he will give you, through his great power, everything you need for living a truly good life: he even shares his own glory and his own goodness with us!And by that same mighty power he has given us all the other rich and wonderful blessings he promised; for instance, the promise to save us from the lust and rottenness all around us, and to give us his own character.But to obtain these gifts, you need more than faith; you must also work hard to be good, and even that is not enough. For then you must learn to know God better and discover what he wants you to do.Next, learn to put aside your own desires so that you will become patient and godly, gladly letting God have his way with you.This will make possible the next step, which is for you to enjoy other people and to like them, and finally you will grow to love them deeply.The more you go on in this way, the more you will grow strong spiritually and become fruitful and useful to our Lord Jesus Christ.But anyone who fails to go after these additions to faith is blind indeed, or at least very shortsighted and has forgotten that God delivered him from the old life of sin so that now he can live a strong, good life for the Lord.So, dear brothers, work hard to prove that you really are among those God has called and chosen, and then you will never stumble or fall away.And God will open wide the gates of heaven for you to enter into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
2 Peter 1:3-11 TLB
