Have This Mind - A List Of Right Thoughts

·1 hr 14 min·5 clips

Pastor Rogers reveals that fear is having more confidence in the enemy's ability to hurt you than faith in God's ability to deliver you.

This sermon from Kingdom Christian Church focuses on cultivating a specific, faith-driven mindset as instructed in the Bible. Pastor Rogers teaches that believers should actively reject tormenting thoughts and embrace a list of right thoughts prescribed by scripture. He grounds the lesson in Philippians 3:15, which instructs mature Christians to "have this mind," referring to the mind of Christ. The teaching establishes that emotional turmoil, or "anguish of the soul," is not from God but is instead a curse described in Deuteronomy 28:65. Pastor Rogers argues that worry and fear signify having more confidence in the enemy's ability to harm than faith in God's ability to deliver. He references 2 Thessalonians 2:2 to warn against being "soon shaken in mind," using the example of Egyptian Christian women who remained steadfast despite persecution. The sermon connects a tormented mind to a rejection of God's perfect love, citing 1 John 4:18 that "fear involves torment." Pastor Rogers explains that Christ redeemed believers from the curse of the law, as stated in Galatians 3:13. He emphasizes that walking in faith is incompatible with a divided heart, quoting Romans 5:5 about God's love being "shed abroad in our hearts." The practical application comes from Philippians 4:4-7, which commands believers to "be anxious for nothing" and promises God's peace will guard their hearts and minds. Pastor Rogers shares a personal testimony of never having a sleepless night over major church building projects as evidence of this peace. He concludes by introducing a list of eight right thoughts from Philippians 4:8, which includes whatever is true, noble, just, pure, lovely, and of good report, plus anything virtuous and praiseworthy. The sermon is highly energetic, conversational, and interactive, frequently prompting the audience to respond. The tone is instructional and exhortative, blending academic scriptural analysis with prophetic declarations and personal anecdotes. Listeners seeking passionate, charismatic Bible teaching on spiritual warfare and mental discipline will find this episode compelling. Those who prefer a calm, lecture-style sermon or are uncomfortable with direct spiritual confrontation might choose to skip it.
