Enquanto nos esforçamos para amar Deus, à nossa volta, todos os dias, há uma batalha constante pelas nossas mentes. É por isso que precisamos de estudar a Palavra de Deus, para que possamos conhecer a mente de Deus, o que Ele espera de nós e como Ele quer que vivamos. Não vais aprender isto a ler o jornal diário, a ouvir falar no rádio ou a vegetar à frente da TV.
Uma das minhas passagens favoritas das Escrituras é Isaías 55:8 e 9: "Porque os Meus pensamentos não são os teus pensamentos, nem os teus caminhos os Meus caminhos," declara o Senhor. "Porque, assim como os céus são mais altos do que a terra, assim são os Meus caminhos mais elevados do que os vossos caminhos e os Meus pensamentos mais do que os vossos pensamentos." Esta é uma bela passagem na Palavra de Deus para descrever porque a Palavra de Deus é tão única. Porque tudo o que lemos aqui nesta vida tende a ser contrário ao que a Palavra de Deus está a dizer. Precisamos de mergulhar na Palavra de Deus como uma maneira de conhecer a Deus, para que possamos amá-Lo com as nossas mentes.
Marcos 12:29-30

As we strive to love God, all around us, every day, there is a constant battle for our minds. That is why we need to study the Word of God, so we can know the mind of God and what He expects of us and how He wants us to live. You’re not going to learn that by reading the daily newspaper, listening to talk radio or vegging in front of the TV.
One of my favorite passages of Scripture is Isaiah 55:8 and 9. "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways," declares the Lord. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts." That’s a beautiful passage in the Word of God to describe why the Word of God is so unique. Because everything we read here in this life tends to be contrary to what God’s Word is saying. We need to immerse ourselves in the Word of God as a way of getting to know God, so that we can love God with our minds.
I know the tension of the now I don’t always understand I don’t always get to see Everything When I’m holding up my hands When I’m counting every breath Lord, all I need to know is You choose me You choose me I’ll praise before my breakthrough ‘Til my song becomes my triumph I will sing because I trust You I will bring my heart I will lift my song When I’m listening for Your voice And I’m shutting out the noise I know that you will speak Clearly When I’m living out my faith When I’m stepping on the sea I know You take my hand And walk with me Walk with me I’ll praise before my breakthrough ‘Til my song becomes my triumph I will sing because I trust You I will bring my heart I will lift my song He who came in power He will come again He who heals the sick Won’t He move again He who raised the dead Won’t He raise again And I will sing I will sing [x2] I’ll praise before my breakthrough ‘Til my song becomes my triumph I will sing because I trust You I will bring my heart I will lift my song [x2] I will sing because I trust You And I’ll worship because I trust I sing because I love You And I’ll bring my heart I will lift my song
