TODAY'S DEVOTION. ATTITUDE FOR LANDING OR CRASHING.
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE.. "You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off the old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds." (Ephesians 4:22 NIV)
The Merriam Webster dictionary defines "attitude" as "an internal position or feeling with regard to something else." Other words often used as synonyms of the word attitude are: "disposition, feeling, mood, opinion, sentiment, temper, tone, perspective, frame of mind, outlook, view, or morale."
Pilots often use "altitude" to describe their horizontal relationship with the runway when they land. If their altitude isn’t aligned properly, the plane will make contact with the ground at the wrong angle and it will cause them to crash. In like manner, your attitude can cause you to have a good landing or crash if it is not in alignment with "...renewing the attitude of your minds."
Many of the crashes in our lives that we blame the devil for are all products of bad choices and bad attitudes.Your attitude is your inward disposition towards other things, such as people or circumstances. Attitude is applied whenever you must deal with something other than yourself.
According to God’s word, when you become a Christian, a part of your new creation is the development of new attitudes.
TODAY'S RESPONSE
Your attitude should become like that of Jesus. "Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus:" (Philippians 2:5)
