Think Mythically (A Periscope Video)

Think Mythically

We’re working on our thought patterns.

Here’s my Periscope on Philippians 3:18-4:1.

“For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is on earthly things. But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body. Therefore, my brothers, you whom I love, and love for, my joy and my crown, that is how you should stand firm in the Lord, dear friends” (Phil. 3:18-4:1).

 

I’m hoping this teaching will help you focus on more than what’s in front of you.

When we think this way, we handle situations differently. Don’t you know that this is how Jesus was able to respond to people and situations the way He did? He had a much larger perspective–an eternal one.

What are things you do to keep the bigger picture in mind?

  1. […] As you chew on these scriptures, test your heart concerning these truths. Are they hard to believe? Sometimes we feel some of God’s promises only manifest themselves in other people’s lives, not ours. But these promises are eternal and for all who believe/trust. Remember, think mythically. […]
