Romans 8:5-8
Me:
The Power of Positive Thinking
Norman Vincent Peale
It was the first thing I thought of as read today’s passage
This book was written in 1952
It’s still available on Amazon for 8.99
He has ten rules for “overcoming inadequacy attitudes and learning to practice faith”.
Think a positive thought to drown out a negative thought.
Repeat “If God be for us, who can be against us?” ten times every day.
Repeat “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me” ten times every day.
The interesting part about the book was the criticism it received
Many church leaders criticized it
The world of Psychology criticized it
However, you can still purchase it today 70 years after it was published
I personally believe a positive outlook is important
If we have a negative outlook on life
To me that is misery (weather)
Everyone is against me
The sky is blue, but is that rain cloud?

A Long List
Famous pastors right books about this.
Robert Schuller’s Hour of Power
Joel Osteen
Rick Warren – Purpose driven life
The secular world offers a never-ending array
From “You are a Bad***” to Think and grow rich
The old adage is quite true:
The way you think is who you are
And that determines what you do.
How does this effect the spiritual realm?
God:
Having our minds set
Rom 8:5 CSB
This is what you think about
Listen to this definition
to keep on giving serious consideration to something—‘to ponder, to let one’s mind dwell on, to keep thinking about, to fix one’s attention on.’
When you think negative thoughts
When you are worried about something
It can grow from a mole hill to a mountain

The contrast between the
Mind set of Flesh vs the Mind of the Spirit
In the flesh vs in the Spirit
The mind of flesh lives for the flesh
His mind is centered on the things that satisfy the flesh.
The mind of the Spirit lives for the Spirit
His mind on the things of God
Death vs Life
The carnal life has a dead spirit
The Spirit filled life is full of life They are living for eternity
War with God vs Peace with God
Pleasing Self vs Pleasing God
You:
We are at war
We just finished the armor of God.
What are you doing?
Pleasing self?
Pleasing God?
The power of positive thinking is not all wrong
The battle does start in the mind (Most focus on self)
The battle also rages in the trenches of life
In those dark valleys
How is the “pleasing of self” working for you?
This is the worlds solution
You deserve it
It’s the same lie Satan told Eve
Pleasing God is real life
Knowing your purpose
Experiencing God
Turning mountain into mole hills
Just Imagine
In Christ
In Christ is where our hope is at.
Where is your hope?
In self?
In Christ?
