The mind is the part of the brain that reasons, thinks, feels, perceives, and judges.

A thought whether good or bad is usually perceived in the mind before it is acted on. Hence it is possible to sin in your thoughts.

The Bible implores us as believers to be like-minded and be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment (1 Corinthians 1:10).

The only way we can all have the same mind is to have the mind of Christ.

The mind of Christ is humble and obedient as noted in His willingness to leave His glorious home in heaven to make His abode on sinful earth.

While upon earth He forsook all earthly riches and worldly pleasures to serve humanity like a bondservant.

Then, He obediently died on the cross to pay the penalty for the sins of humanity.

This is the mind of love!

May the Lord help us to be kind and loving towards each other. May we learn to capture our thoughts to the obedience of Christ and may we learn to be truthful in a world filled with deception.

Look for the good in every situation and seek peace with all persons.

The Lord takes pleasure to dwell among those who are humble with a repentant heart.

It is my prayer that the Lord will empower us with the mind of Christ so we will be united as one.

Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. (1 Peter 5: 5-7)

Beverley has been serving the Lord since she was a child. At an early age, she recognized that God had a special plan for her life, but it was not until in her adulthood that she surrendered her total life to God and accepted the mandate that God placed on her life. The Lord called her into His Kingdom to be an encourager, intercessor, teacher, scribe, priest, and to proclaim the Word of God. Since then, Beverly has established a blog to teach us to become the oil and wine. The oil and wine are purified and mature products, which is the advanced level that the Lord expected of us. In 2017, Beverley published her first book, Harm Not The Oil And Wine. In it, she described her trials and how God helped her to overcome them, and to live more victoriously. The book also exposed the enemy of our souls with detailed information about his past defeats and future extinction. Wright spents most of her time studying the Bible to know the truth of God’s Word. She believes that only God’s truth can expose the deception of the enemy, and uproot and tear down spiritual strongholds.

You can also find her on Facebook and Google+ under the name of her blog, and on Twitter as @Theoilandwine. View all posts by Beverley
