Think BIG!

BE PEOPLE WHO INSPIRE HOPE!

THE BEST IS YET TO COME!

THINKING BIG

Colossians 3:2 (ESV) Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

NATURAL MINDS have a default setting!

Philippians 3:19 (ESV) Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame, with their minds set on earthly things.

Romans 8:5-8 (ESV) For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 6 For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.

COMMON SENSE?!

Isaiah 55:8 (ESV) For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the L ORD.

Daniel 5:13-16 (ESV) The king answered and said to Daniel, “You are that Daniel…I have heard of you that the spirit of the gods is in you, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom are found in you. Now the wise men, the enchanters, have been brought in before me to read this writing and make known to me…But I have heard that you can give interpretations and solve problems.

FOOLISH MINDS

1 Corinthians 1:18-25 (NLT) 18 The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God. 23 So when we preach that Christ was crucified, the Jews are offended and the Gentiles say it’s all nonsense… 25 This foolish plan of God is wiser than the wisest of human plans, and God’s weakness is stronger than the greatest of human strength.

JESUS CANNOT BE FULLY EXPLAINED BUT CAN BE FULLY EXPERIENCED! L
