Word for the Year 2025: Spiritual-Mindedness

Training4Manhood

I took this word from the title of a book by Puritan author John Owen - Spiritual-Mindedness.

For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.

Romans 8:6 (For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.)

Taking control of your thought-life - valuable life skill for everyone, everyday!

2 Corinthians 10:5 - take every thought captive to obey Christ

So our thoughts are the best and surest way of showing us what we are in ourselves. “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he” (Prov. 23:7).

If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. Colossians 3:1-2

The strength of the mind is wasted by fruitless thoughts.

The first object, then, of our spiritual thoughts is to consider what God is saying in the daily circumstances of life.
