Week 34: Thursday Discipleship

  • Psalm 1:1-3

    Blessed is the man
        who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
    nor stands in the way of sinners,
        nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
    but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
        and on his law he meditates day and night.

    He is like a tree
        planted by streams of water
    that yields its fruit in its season,
        and its leaf does not wither.
    In all that he does, he prospers.

  • Proverbs 4:23-27

    Keep your heart with all vigilance,
        for from it flow the springs of life.
    Put away from you crooked speech,
        and put devious talk far from you.
    Let your eyes look directly forward,
        and your gaze be straight before you.
    Ponder the path of your feet;
        then all your ways will be sure.
    Do not swerve to the right or to the left;
        turn your foot away from evil.

  • Question: How does the mindset you choose determine your destiny?

    Answer:  A mind fixed on the flesh leads to death, but a Spirit-focused mind brings life and peace. Only the Holy Spirit can transform our thoughts so that we truly love and obey God.

  • Romans 8:6 (ESV)
    β€œFor to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.”
