Focus: Surrendering My Mind to God
Our thoughts shape our actions, attitudes, and ultimately, our lives. The Bible calls us to a transformed mind—one that is renewed by God’s Word and aligned with His will. This devotional series, “Purify My Thoughts, Lord,” is a journey toward cultivating a mindset that honors God and reflects His holiness. Through surrender and intentional focus on His truth, we can experience freedom from negative, impure, and destructive thinking, embracing a thought life that pleases Him. So, beloved, let us invite the Lord to purify our minds and transform us into His likeness.
The first step to having a purified thought life is surrendering our minds to God. This means giving Him access to every part of our thinking—our worries, plans, desires, and even our struggles. When we surrender, we invite God to take control and align our thoughts with His truth. A surrendered mind is a gateway to transformation, where God replaces worldly thinking with His divine perspective.
Scripture Reading:
Isaiah 26:3 – “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.”
Refreshing for the Day:
So, beloved, today, take a moment to intentionally surrender your thoughts to God. When anxious or negative thoughts arise, pause, and give them to Him in prayer. Reflect at the end of the day on how surrendering your mind brought peace. Stay refreshed!

O Lord, I surrender my mind to You. Take control of my thoughts and align them with Your truth. Help me to trust You fully. In Jesus’ name, Amen!

I declare that my mind is surrendered to God, and His truth governs my thoughts. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
