Philippians 2:5 KJB, “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:”
This tells us that we are to have the mind of Christ. His way of thinking should always be our standard. When we think like Jesus, it will keep us safe from the enemy’s wicked schemes. Because the enemy is always trying to temp us and lead us away from the will of God.
By operating in the mind of Christ, we will walk in wisdom. We will also walk in love and kindness toward others. This verse reminds me of that popular acronym from some years ago, WWJD (What Would Jesus Do?). It does not hurt to ask ourselves this question so we can make sure our thinking is in sync with His. When we think like Jesus, we will act like Jesus, and our lives will bring Him glory.

Drawing Closer to Christ 
To have this attitude in all that we do – that is – the mind of Christ, would help us remove self from the centre and think of others, being obedient to the Heavenly Father and giving glory to God. Oh how I pray for that to be how I operate.
A wonderful word for me today Dawn. Thank you 😊 💙

This made me think! Too often the enemy gets in our head and twists our thinking. But when we have the mind of Christ, that leaves little room for the enemies lies. Thanks for this encouraging post!
