Mind

And his brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept in mind what he had said.

God is not a man, that He should lie, or a son of man, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and not act? Does He promise and not fulfill?

The LORD will afflict you with madness, blindness, and confusion of mind,

Yet to this day the LORD has not given you a mind to understand, eyes to see, or ears to hear.

“When all these things come upon you—the blessings and curses I have set before you—and you call them to mind in all the nations to which the LORD your God has banished you,

Then I will raise up for Myself a faithful priest. He will do whatever is in My heart and mind. And I will build for him an enduring house, and he will walk before My anointed one for all time.

Moreover, the Glory of Israel does not lie or change His mind, for He is not a man, that He should change His mind.”

Moreover, the Glory of Israel does not lie or change His mind, for He is not a man, that He should change His mind.”

She arrived in Jerusalem with a very large caravan—with camels bearing spices, gold in great abundance, and precious stones. And she came to Solomon and spoke to him all that was on her mind.

All these men of war, arrayed for battle, came to Hebron fully determined to make David king over all Israel. And all the rest of the Israelites were of one mind to make David king.

As for you, Solomon my son, know the God of your father and serve Him wholeheartedly and with a willing mind, for the LORD searches every heart and understands the intent of every thought. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will reject you forever.

The plans contained everything David had in mind for the courts of the house of the LORD, for all the surrounding rooms, for the treasuries of the house of God and of the dedicated things,

Now when the queen of Sheba heard about the fame of Solomon, she came to test him with difficult questions. She arrived in Jerusalem with a very large caravan—with camels bearing spices, gold in abundance, and precious stones. And she came to Solomon and spoke with him about all that was on her mind.

So we rebuilt the wall until all of it was joined together up to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.

Then I sent him this reply: “There is nothing to these rumors you are spreading; you are inventing them in your own mind.”

Yet You concealed these things in Your heart, and I know that this was in Your mind:

But I also have a mind; I am not inferior to you. Who does not know such things as these?

Who has put wisdom in the heart or given understanding to the mind?

Test me, O LORD, and try me; examine my heart and mind.

I am forgotten like a dead man, out of mind. I am like a broken vessel.

These things come to mind as I pour out my soul: how I walked with the multitude, leading the festive procession to the house of God with shouts of joy and praise.

For with one mind they plot together; they form an alliance against You—

The LORD has sworn and will not change His mind: “You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”

A man is praised according to his wisdom, but a twisted mind is despised.

Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise—apply your mind to my knowledge—

Your eyes will see strange things, and your mind will utter perversities.

And I set my mind to seek and explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven. What a miserable task God has laid upon the sons of men to occupy them!

I said to myself, “Behold, I have grown and increased in wisdom beyond all those before me who were over Jerusalem, and my mind has observed a wealth of wisdom and knowledge.”

So I set my mind to know wisdom and madness and folly; I learned that this, too, is a pursuit of the wind.

I sought to cheer my body with wine and to embrace folly—my mind still guiding me with wisdom—until I could see what was worthwhile for men to do under heaven during the few days of their lives.

Indeed, all his days are filled with grief, and his task is sorrowful; even at night, his mind does not rest. This too is futile.

I directed my mind to understand, to explore, to search out wisdom and explanations, and to understand the stupidity of wickedness and the folly of madness.

All this I have seen, applying my mind to every deed that is done under the sun; there is a time when one man lords it over another to his own detriment.

When I applied my mind to know wisdom and to observe the task that one performs on the earth—though his eyes do not see sleep in the day or even in the night—

You will keep in perfect peace the steadfast of mind, because he trusts in You.

The mind of the rash will know and understand, and the stammering tongue will speak clearly and fluently.

For a fool speaks foolishness; his mind plots iniquity. He practices ungodliness and speaks falsely about the LORD; he leaves the hungry empty and deprives the thirsty of drink.

Your mind will ponder the former terror: “Where is he who tallies? Where is he who weighs? Where is he who counts the towers?”

“Do not call to mind the former things; pay no attention to the things of old.

For behold, I will create new heavens and a new earth. The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind.

“In those days, when you multiply and increase in the land,” declares the LORD, “they will no longer discuss the ark of the covenant of the LORD. It will never come to mind, and no one will remember it or miss it, nor will another one be made.

They have built the high places of Topheth in the Valley of Ben-hinnom so they could burn their sons and daughters in the fire—something I never commanded, nor did it even enter My mind.

O LORD of Hosts, who judges righteously, who examines the heart and mind, let me see Your vengeance upon them, for to You I have committed my cause.

I, the LORD, search the heart; I examine the mind to reward a man according to his way, by what his deeds deserve.

They have built high places to Baal on which to burn their children in the fire as offerings to Baal—something I never commanded or mentioned, nor did it even enter My mind.

O LORD of Hosts, who examines the righteous, who sees the heart and mind, let me see Your vengeance upon them, for to You I have committed my cause.

“Set up the road markers, put up the signposts. Keep the highway in mind, the road you have traveled. Return, O Virgin Israel, return to these cities of yours.

They have built the high places of Baal in the Valley of Ben-hinnom to make their sons and daughters pass through the fire to Molech—something I never commanded them, nor had it ever entered My mind, that they should commit such an abomination and cause Judah to sin.

“As for the incense you burned in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem—you, your fathers, your kings, your officials, and the people of the land—did the LORD not remember and bring this to mind?

You who have escaped the sword, depart and do not linger! Remember the LORD from far away, and let Jerusalem come to mind.”

Yet I call this to mind, and therefore I have hope:

When you say, ‘Let us be like the nations, like the peoples of the lands, serving wood and stone,’ what you have in mind will never come to pass.

This is what the Lord GOD says: On that day, thoughts will arise in your mind, and you will devise an evil plan.

But Daniel made up his mind that he would not defile himself with the king’s food or wine. So he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself.

But there is a God in heaven who reveals mysteries, and He has made known to King Nebuchadnezzar what will happen in the latter days. Your dream and the visions that came into your mind as you lay on your bed were these:

And to me this mystery has been revealed, not because I have more wisdom than any man alive, but in order that the interpretation might be made known to the king, and that you may understand the thoughts of your mind.

I had a dream, and it frightened me; while I was in my bed, the images and visions in my mind alarmed me.

In these visions of my mind as I was lying in bed, I saw this come to pass: There was a tree in the midst of the land, and its height was great.

As I lay on my bed, I also saw in the visions of my mind a watcher, a holy one, coming down from heaven.

Let his mind be changed from that of a man, and let him be given the mind of a beast till seven times pass him by.

Let his mind be changed from that of a man, and let him be given the mind of a beast till seven times pass him by.

He was driven away from mankind, and his mind was like that of a beast. He lived with the wild donkeys and ate grass like an ox, and his body was drenched with the dew of heaven until he acknowledged that the Most High God rules over the kingdom of mankind, setting over it whom He wishes.

As soon as the king heard this, he was deeply distressed and set his mind on delivering Daniel, and he labored until sundown to rescue him.

In the first year of the reign of Belshazzar over Babylon, Daniel had a dream, and visions passed through his mind as he lay on his bed. He wrote down the dream, and this is the summary of his account.

The first beast was like a lion, and it had the wings of an eagle. I watched until its wings were torn off and it was lifted up from the ground and made to stand on two feet like a man and given the mind of a man.

I, Daniel, was grieved in my spirit, and the visions in my mind alarmed me.

Through his craft and by his hand, he will cause deceit to prosper, and in his own mind he will make himself great. In a time of peace he will destroy many, and he will even stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be broken off, but not by human hands.

But Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me. For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”

‘I will not,’ he replied. But later he changed his mind and went.

Jesus declared, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’

When His family heard about this, they went out to take custody of Him, saying, “He is out of His mind.”

When they came to Jesus, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons sitting there, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

But Jesus, turning and looking at His disciples, rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind Me, Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.”

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’

So the people went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man whom the demons had left, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind; and they were afraid.

He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”

So make up your mind not to worry beforehand how to defend yourselves.

“You are out of your mind,” they told her. But when she kept insisting it was so, they said, “It must be his angel.”

Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done.

But I see another law at work in my body, warring against the law of my mind and holding me captive to the law of sin that dwells within me.

Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, with my mind I serve the law of God, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace,

The mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace,

…because the mind of the flesh is hostile to God: It does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so.

And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

“Who has known the mind of the Lord? Or who has been His counselor?”

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.

One person regards a certain day above the others, while someone else considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.

Therefore let us stop judging one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother’s way.

…so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree together, so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be united in mind and conviction.

“For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

“For who has known the mind of the Lord, so as to instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.

For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful.

What then shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind.

What then shall I do? I will pray with my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind. I will sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my mind.

So I made up my mind not to make another painful visit to you.

If we are out of our mind, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you.

If we are out of our mind, it is for God; if we are of sound mind, it is for you.

Are they servants of Christ? (I am speaking as if I were out of my mind.) I am so much more: in harder labor, in more imprisonments, in worse beatings, in frequent danger of death.
