Dealing with Destructive Mindset

The mind is very important. If the mind is non-functional no appreciable growth or promotion can be achieved. Proverbs 23 v7 and Romans 12 v2.

As Christians our battles in life are fought in the mind (2 Cor 10 v3-5) and in the spirit.

There are 12 limiting mindsets. The first is Victim Mentality as experienced by the children of Israel in Numbers 14 v1-3. Symptoms include

- blaming others for our failures Proverbs 9 v12
- reacting fiercely when corrected
- focusing on the past and ignoring the future
- Proverbs 24 v14
- building on personality and not principles Matthew 7
- intimidated by people of other race Numbers 13
- fighting with their source of help
