Then he added, “Now go and learn the meaning of this Scripture: ‘I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices.’ For I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.” Matthew 9:13 NLT
Invade My Soul, Lord
The greatest of all commandments was made clear on a bright sunny day some 2,000 years ago. Jesus said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” This is the first and great commandment. – Matthew 22:37-38
Jesus said it then, and He is saying it now: your No. 1 priority is to love God not just in your physical actions, but in your mental and emotional lives.
After knowing the mess that’s been in my head, it’s hard for me to imagine Jesus would want anything to do with my mind and emotions. However, He does!
He is willing to step into your thoughts and, piece by piece, item by item, remove the clutter and straighten out the disorder. And there is plenty of disorder in your mind, isn’t there? It’s nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, Jesus removes all the shame from your actions, thoughts, and emotions. He’s just awesome that way!
He is faithful in serving you, so you should be faithful in serving Him. When you serve Him with your love for His glory and not your own, He can invade your soul.
Do you want it? Do you want Jesus to invade your soul, change your thinking, and shower you with the love of God? He will if you let Him.
For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ. For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ. 1 Corinthians 2:16
Grounded in Faith
Declare!
He is so good to me! I submit everything to Him so He can change the things that need changing and strengthen the weak places. I am grateful that He is decluttering my mind and aligning my thoughts with His. The desire of my heart is to bring glory to Him.
