Raynette K. Weiss Ministries run by Our Lord, and by Rev. Raynette K. Archer Weiss and Rev. Jessie K. Weiss assistant Minister. Invite you to what does it mean to have a double mentality? Friday April 19, 2024.

Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

James 4:8  Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.;

1 Kings 18:21 Elijah came near to all the people and said, “How long will you hesitate between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him.” But the people did not answer him a word.

Luke 11:39-40 But the Lord said to him, “Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and of the platter; but inside of you, you are full of robbery and wickedness. You foolish ones, did not He who made the outside make the inside also?

Lesson:

According to the bible it is not a good idea to be double minded, or have  a double mentality. This term describes an individual who has a problem with being faithful in thier assignments in life being consistent in their thoughts over and over. and doing the same things and believing the same. It can be hard to overcome this at first.  However, the rest of the Bible describes Our Heavenly Father’s character and evaluates whether a message that is coming from Our Heavenly Father fits with what His Word shows about Him. Our Heavenly Father is not double-minded; He will not contradict Himself. The Holy Spirit goes to convict us of our sin and gives us a way to respond to Our Heavenly Father’s love, but we look to receive from Our Heavenly Father for our own benefit and to fulfill our own passions and desires.  When a person is double minded, they are going between conflicting viewpoints as James describes. This can come from the persons doubt and manifests itself In a lack of commitment, consistency, and faith. There are six characteristics of a believer that makes them have a double mind.

Inconsistency in Prayer and Worship

Indecision in Decision Making

Lack of Trust in God’s Plan

Tendency to Compromise with Sin

Unstable Emotions and Attitudes

Difficulty in Maintaining Relationships

To be able to change from having a double mind can be very difficult but not impossible. Ending double-mindedness isn’t easy, but it’s pretty simple. You have to want to think differently. And you have to take action that reinforces your desire.

Closing Prayer;  Lord Jesus Christ, in Your name we confess the sin of double-mindedness. It grieves us, O Lord, when we waver between two opinions, creating a spirit of confusion within us. In your name we pray.

This prayer below is also called the sinners prayer, and it gets people to 

become a child of Our Heavenly Father or strengthens thier faith within him whenever they are already a child of Our Heavenly Father.

Prayer for salvation; Lord Jesus; Please come into my heart as my Lord and Savior.Take 

complete control of my life and help me to walk in Your footsteps daily by the power of the Holy Spirit. Thank you Lord for saving me and I know you will answer my prayers. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
