Today’s Scripture: Ephesians 4:23 ESV: and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds,
New life is found in the Spirit of God. Paul tells us in Ephesians 4:24 that we are created in the likeness of God. God is spirit and Jesus ascended so we would know this Spirit.
The Spirit is beyond our minds, have you experienced it? This dimension is the space that God has filled within us. Be still and you will know Him and you will find His Spirit.
In verses 17 and 18 we are told of the futility and darkness of our minds and how and in 22 we are to put off that old self. How do we do it? We seek the Spirit of God with the spirit within us. It is here that we are renewed. It is here where we find peace, comfort and the power of God. It is here where God speaks to us, encourages us and gives us the desires of His heart.
How has the Holy Spirit renewed you?
Today’s Prayer: Spirit of God, thank you for filling me and revealing Yourself to me. I praise You for Your comfort, Your power, Your confidence and Your encouragement. Thank you for equipping me and allowing my heart to see.
LORD protect me from the darkness of my mind. In You Father I am renewed. Amen

Affirmations of God
I am renewed daily by His Spirit just so that I can keep on. But over the years His Spirit has created a new personality in me that I know is not who I was.
Thank you Joseph for sharing!! I am talking to myself here…I am so thankful for His Spirit and His renewal. I too know I am changed and see most conflicts in my life are due to me trying to live my new personality/life in my old ways/places…I am choosing complete renewal. thank you for pointing out the NEW in renewal…out with the OLD. Blessings in your reNEWal.
