“The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.”
Jesus tells us the thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy and that He came that we may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance. He wants your life to be full and overflowing with His Spirit. In His spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. This kind of life is experienced when your mind is governed by the Spirit.
To govern your mind by the spirit, focus on whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, and whatever things are of good report. Meditate on the pure essence of God’s goodness and you will experience the life and peace He has prepared for you.
Abundant living
