FAITH CAPSULE:A mind that is set on God will not be a stranger to peace.

Colossians 3:1-17

Believing God is not only in the confession with the mouth. Believing God is behaving the word of God. Among the ways of word-behaving believers is seeking and set minds on things that are above. Paul pointed out, “If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.” (Colossians 3:1-2) As a believer, what you seek and set your mind on is what will make you up in the journey of life. In all your seeking,“Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”  (Matthew 6:33) The word of God is true and never fails. When you seek the kingdom of heaven first, not second and without any other agenda, the result will be true to God’s word. When we seek Him, it should be with all diligence with all that He has given us. God did not ask from us what we cannot offer. God knows what we are capable of giving Him.Deuteronomy 4:29, “…seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.” Have you in deed and in truth given your life to Him? Seek Him with all diligence and He will bring to pass all that He promised. What about setting your mind? Remember, it is about setting and seeking and neither can be separated from one another. It is not possible to seek and not set; neither is it possible to set and not seek Him. A mind that is set on God will always wait and look up to God for all answers. A mind that is set on God will not be a stranger to peace. It is the setting of minds on things from above that will upset the world of wickedness from having its place in the life of any believer who chooses to seek and set it all on Him. What a believer seek or set is where the mind is. If your mind is on the kingdom of God, you will live heaven on earth and if it is on the kingdom of this world, you will have no choice but to reap from where you seek and set. It is written, “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.” (Isaiah 26:3)The position of a believer is seeking and setting of the mind on things that are above. As a believer in the word of God, there is only one place we should constantly dwell and that is seeking and setting our all on the Lord.

Prayer for today: Ask for the grace to constantly seek and set it all on Him.
