I Have the Mind of Christ: Living in Higher Consciousness Through Philippians 2:5

 

I Have the Mind of Christ: Living in Higher Consciousness Through Philippians 2:5

Open Bible displaying Philippians 2:5 with heavenly light symbolizing the mind of Christ


“I have the mind of Christ.” This powerful declaration is rooted in Philippians 2:5 and invites every believer into a higher way of thinking and living.

"Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus." – Philippians 2:5

   The key affirmation for this teaching is: I am letting the mind of Christ be in me. The Apostle Paul further declares:

"But we have the mind of Christ." – 1 Corinthians 2:16

   This mindset is not something we struggle to obtain. It is already available through the Holy Spirit and spiritual alignment. The invitation is not to manufacture divine thought, but to allow it.

First: The Old Testament Reality

   Under the Old Covenant, it was not possible to operate with the mind of Christ because a clear separation existed between God’s thoughts and human thoughts.

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways… As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." – Isaiah 55:8–9

   Divine consciousness and human consciousness remained distinct. Humanity perceived God as distant, elevated, and separate.

Second: The New Testament Revelation

   In the New Covenant, Jesus bridges the gap. He unites heaven and earth, divinity and humanity. In Christ, God’s thoughts and ways are demonstrated in human form.

   Paul instructs us to let this mind be in us, and he boldly affirms that we already have access to it. Through Jesus, believers step into a higher consciousness that empowers them to continue Christ’s ministry healing, teaching, and demonstrating divine power.

   The manifestations of Christ require the mind of Christ. When we think as Christ thinks, we live as Christ lives.

Third: The Now Testament Experience

   The “Now Testament” is active right here and right now. Believers are living epistles, expressing the mind of Christ in the present moment.

   Each person chooses their level of consciousness:

   Subconscious – Past-focused and conditioned by memory.

   Conscious – Sense-based and circumstance-driven.

   Superconscious – The Christ mind, aligned with divine truth.

   Through awareness and intentional choice, believers release lower levels of thinking and allow the mind of Christ to guide their Thinking, Theology, and Treatment. Thoughts align. Words align. Actions align.

Conclusion: The Invitation

   The invitation still stands: Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus. Move beyond the old separation. Embrace the new possibility revealed through Jesus. Live as the Now Testament.

   As you align your thoughts, words, and actions with the mind of Christ, you step into abundant and eternal life living in harmony with divine purpose here and now.

📖 Reflection: What level of consciousness am I choosing today, and how can I intentionally allow the mind of Christ to guide my thinking?

💡 Action Step: Begin each morning this week by affirming, “I am letting the mind of Christ be in me,” and consciously align your thoughts with divine truth throughout the day.

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
