God’s Prescription For Health - God’s Prescription For Health - Part 5: Think Sharper and Smarter, 2/20/2012

THINK SHARPER AND SMARTER 
	Pastor Arlene Sumpter - 2.19.12 
	 
	Our mind is a powerful tool; left undirected, our thoughts will lead us to evil; but directed and transformed by God’s word, our thoughts will lead us towards pleasing God.
<ul style="list-style-type:circle;">
	<li>
		Everything we do begins with the way we THINK!</li>
</ul>

	2 “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.  Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:2 (NLT) 
	 

	1. GAIN INFORMATION & MAKE APPLICATION.  

	9 “Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.” Philippians 4:9 (NIV) 
<ul style="list-style-type:circle;">
	<li>
		Gaining information is the EASY part  </li>
	<li>
		Making application requires DISIPLINE</li>
</ul>

	For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. I Timothy 4:8 (NIV)

	 
	2. RETRAIN YOU BRAIN.

	8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8 (NIV)
<ul style="list-style-type:circle;">
	<li>
		Don’t REHEARSE poor thinking.</li>
	<li>
		Don’t CURSE poor thinking.</li>
	<li>
		Don’t NURSE poor thinking. </li>
</ul>

	Instead, ask God to:
<ul style="list-style-type:circle;">
	<li>
		REVERSE your poor thinking. </li>
</ul>

	3. PRAY FOR NEW THOUGHTS AND GOALS.

	6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4: 6-7 (KJV)
