Daily Devotional By Dr. Paul Enenche.
TOPIC: MENTALITY: A DETERMINANT OF REALITY.
SCRIPTURE: For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:… PROVERBS 23:7.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: If it is not real in your mind, it cannot be real in your life.
It has been established that mentality is the determinant of reality. If a thing is not real in your mind, it cannot be real in your life. Things happens twice; first, in the mind, and then in real life.
For example, the structure, the Glory Dome was real first in the mind, and then, it became real on the earth. I had it in my mind before consulting a team of architects who put it on paper as an architectural design. Then the engineers – building, structural, mechanical and electrical engineers brought the mental picture into reality.
All truths are parallel. As it is in the physical, so it is in the spiritual. You must change your mind and become different from what is limiting people in your community before you can experience outstanding life physically.
In my own life, I have never felt inferior to anyone anywhere in the world. The Arch Bishop Benson Idahosa (of blessed memory) was a man who had a very healthy mind-set about himself. Whenever he traveled around the world, he never planned to change the way he talked. He talked to the whites the same way he talked to the blacks.
He always told white people, “You people must know that we the black people have faith in God more than you people. You people think because you have many good things, you don’t need God.”
Beloved, the point is, you must have a healthy mind-set about yourself to fulfill your destiny.
Remember this: If it is not real in your mind, it cannot be real in your life.
ASSIGNMENT:
- Go through today’s message again.
- Make up your mind to have a healthy mind-set about your life and destiny.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You deliver me from negative mind-sets and mentality. I ask that You give me a healthy mindset about my life as I study the Scripture, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: When a man sacrifices towards the kingdom, his mentality will be kingdom-directed. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be. Culled from the book, “Who Are You?” by Dr Paul Enenche.
DAILY READING: Acts 10-12.
AMAZING FACT: The mechanics of the working brain are amazing. It allows you to do so many higher-order tasks.
PROPHETIC DECLARATION/WORD: Every trace of inferiority mentality be destroyed in your life today in Jesus’ Name. Grace to see yourself as God sees you is released in Jesus’ Name.
