Key Scripture

Romans 12:1 “Be transformed by the renewal of your mind” 

 

Key Points

  • Attack before the enemy begins. Wake up and pray/read Scripture.
  • Have allies in the battle
  • Remember that inner thoughts and reality can be very different 
  • Interpret things through a lens in relationships. Frustration can be compounded when we react to others as if they intended to wrong us when they may not have.
  • Invite Jesus into the situation. Ask for clarity and how best to move forward 
  • The men provide strategies to engage in the battlefield of the mind when it comes to temptation toward impurity

 

Discussion Questions

  • How can you prepare for the battle of the mind before it even begins?
  • Who can be an ally in the battle of the mind? How can they help?
  • What situations do you need to invite Jesus into?
