We must get our minds set on spiritual things because as long as we fill our minds with what's happening in the natural, we restrict our effectiveness. We may rise up now and then and score a victory with the gift of faith, but we won't have the continual influence of Kingdom transformation flowing through us.
In his book "The War in Your Head," Bill Johnson emphasizes the importance of focusing on spiritual matters over the natural world. He argues that a mindset dominated by earthly concerns can limit one's effectiveness and spiritual growth. While individuals may occasionally achieve victories through faith, this sporadic success lacks the sustained power of true Kingdom transformation.
Johnson suggests that to experience ongoing spiritual influence and a deeper connection with the divine, one must prioritize spiritual thoughts and disciplines. By doing so, individuals can tap into a continuous flow of transformative power that reshapes their lives and impacts those around them, fostering a more profound embodiment of their faith.
