To Believe is To Have a Change of Mindset <Ro 7:4-6> <2 Cor 5:16-18> <Ga 4:6-11> <Jn 4:7-26>
Introduction: The moment a fallen man is born into this world, the devil uses the world and everything in the world to mold his
entire mindset, so that he will depart far from God, and cannot receive salvation, healing, and eternal crown. Therefore, during the
time when man does not know God, he continues to accumulate incorrect thinking (toward God, self, marriage, children, finances,
interpersonal relationships, living, etc). If man is locked in his mindset, he definitely cannot lead a life of breakthroughs. Man’s
achievement absolutely cannot go beyond his mindset. Man’s perpetual sinning, failures, struggles, all come from the incorrect
mindset. Therefore, after man received salvation and grace, the very first thing that God wants to do in his life is to build his
mindset in Jesus Christ, so that through faith, he can surpass his limitations in all things. Therefore, we can say: “To Believe is To
Have a Change of Mindset”.

. When will man form Incorrect Mindset?
* Many people unconsciously enter into incorrect mindset. Satan uses incorrect mindsets to manipulate man’s entire life. Therefore,
we can say: “Incorrect mindset is a spiritual prison.” <Example of a circus elephant> <Example of Samaritan woman>
1) When a person departs from God (in other words: desires this world), the wrong mindset automatically forms
* Whatever man desires, if it is not from God’s word and Spirit, what he desires will develop in him incorrect mindsets.
<1 Jn 2:15-17>
2) When the heart and mind of a person is invaded (for example: anxiety, fear, worry, bitterness, hatred, jealousy, discontentment,
hurts…), incorrect mindsets form very easily
3) When a person lives in sins (or disobedience), incorrect mindsets gradually form
4) When a person has a closed mindset (or hold onto first impressions), incorrect mindsets form faster

.The Mindset that God gives us in Jesus Christ (Turning Point of Mindset)
* <Ro 7:6> But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the
Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
1) Realize: My mindset in the past which is apart from God, actually harms myself and others (Awakening Mindset)
3.
.Sustaining and Perfecting the Christ Mindset <1 Th 5:23>
2) Seek out my own potential, and connect this with the use for heavenly kingdom
