A Life Transformed --Day Five ---------------------------------- Goal: To make a plan for continuing to renew your mind with Gods Truth. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A. Additional Helps for the Renewing Process: ----------------------------------------------------- 1. Read the Bible with the single purpose of seeing Who God is. 2. Keep a personal notebook to record the lies that God reveals to you that need to be put off and the truth that needs to be put on. 3. Practice meditating on the Truth and Truth Talk. 4. Develop the habit of meditating on the Truth by writing down a specific helpful Truth on a 3x5 card and carrying this with you. 5. Practice keeping a REED journal (see Lesson 6: Controlling Emotions). Be sure to record the date and circumstances that prompted the negative feelings. This will help you recognize if there is a pattern to these negative emotions. 6. Make worship a lifestyle. Pray Scripture back to God. 7. Read Christian books and listen to teaching cds that will reinforce the truth that you have learned through this workbook. (See Scopes Website for list). 8. Fellowship with other believers who are seeking to know God and grow in their new identity. It is imperative that you stay connected and involved with people in the Body of Christ who will pray for you and encourage you in your faith. 9. Remember, your goal is to know God experientially in the midst of lifes problems and to allow God to transform you into Christ-likeness. To seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness begins by receiving Gods unconditional love for you. 10. Share with others what God is teaching you and what He is doing in your life. Giving to others what God has freely given you will reinforce the truth in your own life. 11. Daily practice consciously and verbally yielding your expectations and rights to God. Trust Him to meet your needs in the very best way and at the right time. 12. Practice asking yourself and God two questions: What is God doing in my life? What does He want me to do? Expect God to speak to you through His Word and through His indwelling Spirit. We do not have to live in continual confusion or bondage. When you have trouble discerning the answer to these two questions, talk to someone whom you respect for his/her walk with God. None of us hears God perfectly all the time. Thats why we need to stay connected to the Body. 13. Reread the lessons in this Book, and work through the specific assignments that address your particular needs. 14. Remember that this is an ongoing, moment-by-moment, lifelong process. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1. Read through Additional Helps for the Renewing Process. Check the ones that stand out to you as possible future assignments. 2. Of those you checked, with which will you start? Schedule a time to get started. 3. Which of the assignments you checked needs to be an ongoing lifestyle change? Ask the Holy Spirit to motivate, empower, and remind you to implement these changes.
