Mirror Christ with Your Mind

On By PhillippiIn Bite-Sized Bible BitsLeave a comment

Today’s “Bite-sized Bible Bit” is about having a Christ-like mindset. We hope you listen and find some encouragement for the week!

In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross! -Philippians‬ ‭2‬:‭5‬-‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The closer you walk with God, the more Christlike your mindset will be. Mirror your mind after Christ by choosing to walk the narrow path each and every day. And make sure you are walking in the right direction! For every thought, every decision, and every move you make can either point you towards Christ or away.

On By PhillippiIn Bite-Sized Bible BitsLeave a comment

Today’s “Bite-sized Bible Bit” is about some promises God has given you that you can cling to. We hope you listen and find some encouragement for the week!

Hang Onto, Hold Tightly, and Hope

Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. -2 Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭4‬ ‭NIV‬‬

If the craziness of this world starts to infiltrate, remember the 3 Hs:

1. Hang onto God,

2. Hold tightly to His promises,

and

3. Hope in Him.

For He is rock-steady and standing on His promises will help to anchor you more firmly to Him.
