The Carnal Mind is the Enemy of God!

Romans 8:6-8~ For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

When my mind lifts me up, I quickly cast me down realizing vanity is a destroyer of many souls. Ecclesiastes 12:13~ "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man."

When my flesh would make idols unto me and around me, I quickly tear them down. Matthew 4:10~ "Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve."

When praise of men I would receive; I quickly acknowledge my God, turning unto Him the glory.
Matthew 4:8-10~ "Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve."

The One, True God, Jehovah! He is high and lifted up!
Let All Nations declare that He is Great beyond expression!
His name will I ever praise in the presence of His Majesty!
