43 : God Changes Hearts and Minds

Published: Feb. 26, 2018, 10:30 p.m.

There is no doubt in my mind that God changes hearts and minds as He goes. Of course, we don’t always get the wonderful opportunity of seeing it happen in others as much as we would like. However, we remain confident in the sowing of seed. We call this process the process of transformation, where the hearts and minds of those who truly seek the Lord are being changed. Often people question the true conversion of others because of all that they may have seen in the past; however, the Lord makes all things new ; new mind, anew heart, and of course, a new way.

Have you ever looked at someone and doubted the possibility of change? I know that I have before I was reminded that I too was once in opposition with God. The scripture states that yet even as we were sinners He died for us on a cross. This is the part that I believe that we often overlook or maybe even tend to forget. However, with a short meditation on this word, we should recall the desire of God that all would come to repentance and be saved. So, is that our desire? If we are His, and we are, then we should line our desires up with His.

So what helps us to believe on the power of God when it comes to someone else? Well, one of the things that I think of most often is testimony. If we are in touch and contact with people, then it doesn’t take long before we can find an opportunity to share a testimony of what God has done in our lives. The funny thing is that God is always increasing our testimony, and more than likely we can testify along the lines of anybody’s current situation or circumstance. The bible teaches us that God comforts, so than n the time of need we may do the same for someone else.

Also, prayer is more powerful than I think we sometimes realize. If we are praying for the salvation of someone, then we are simply lining up to the will of the Father. This would be nothing but a plus for us as we go forward. Remember that God tells us to cast our cares upon Him because He cares about us.

Probably the most left out detail of all is belief. We are to believe on the power of God and what He can do in the lives of all. After all, the scripture reminds us that with God all things are possible. Come one over to www.pressandreach.com/pr43 and let us know what obstacles you had to overcome in dealing with others.
