A Renewed Mind - Watchman Nee

From "Watchman Nee Daily Devotional"

And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Romans 12.2.


A renewed mind can actually prove what the good and acceptable and perfect will of God is. How frequently on a given point this thing seems to be God’s will but that thing seems also to be His will. How often we mistake one for the other. But a renewed mind will make no mistake concerning the will of God.

Unless our mind is renewed, we will not be able to prove what the will of God is. And thus we will not have experienced a full salvation. Yet God has not only saved us to where we are today, He will also save us even further to a perfect position. And it is to this that we must aspire and it is for this that we must thank God.
