Read Sneak Peek of the In Your Heart Set Apart Christ as Lord Tool

So this is the "In your heart, set apart Christ as Lord" tool.

Is He Lord of my Attitude?

The first question we can ask ourselves is, "Is Christ Lord of my attitude?" My attitude reflects my emotions.

This is what the Bible says in Philippians 2:5-8: "You must have the same attitude as Christ Jesus had. Though he was God, he didn't think of equality with God as something to cling to. Instead, he gave up divine privileges. He took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being. When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself and became obedient to God and died a criminal's death on the cross."

Ephesians 4:21-23 states, "Since you have heard about Christ and have learned the truth that comes from him, throw off your sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception, and let the spirit renew your thoughts and your attitudes."

1 Peter 4:1-2 says, "Since then you have suffered physical pain, you must arm yourself with the same attitude he had and be ready to suffer too. If you have suffered physically for Christ, you have finished with sin. You won't spend the rest of your lives chasing your own desires, but you will be eager to do the will of God."

Finally, Romans 8:6 says, "Letting your sinful nature control your mind leads to death, but letting the spirit control your mind leads to life and peace.”

Is He Lord of my Attitude?

Is he Lord of my emotions? Is Christ Lord of my attitude? Chuck Swindoll said, "I believe the single most significant decision I can make every day is my choice of attitude. It's more important than my past, my education, my finances, my success or my failures, my pain, what other people think of me or say about me, my circumstances or my position. My attitude keeps me going or hinders my progress. It alone fuels my fire or assaults my hopes. When my attitudes are right, there is no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for me."

So the question once again is, in your heart, have you set apart Christ as Lord? Is he Lord of your attitude?

Is He Lord of my Answers?

The next step is, is Christ Lord of my answers? We get this from 1 Peter 3:9-10: "Don't repay evil for evil. Don't retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with blessings, for that is what God has called you to do, and he will grant you his blessing."

For scripture says, "I want you to enjoy life and see many happy days. Keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies." Proverbs 15:1 states, "A gentle answer deflects anger, but harsh words make tempers flare." Christ needs to be Lord of your answers.

When we talk about the heart being the seat of our emotions, decisions, and actions, answers reflect our decisions. We choose how we respond. An answer can come from our emotional level; it can be good or bad without passing judgment. However, when I decide to have my answers reflect God's answers, it’s powerful.

In your heart, is Christ set apart as Lord?

In your heart, set apart Christ as Lord. Is he Lord of your attitude? Is he Lord of your answers? The final question we can ask ourselves is, if Christ is set apart in my heart, have I set apart Christ as Lord? Is Christ Lord of my actions? This comes from James 4:17 and 1 Peter 3. James 4 states, "Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it."

Proverbs 84:11 says, "For the Lord our God is our sun and shield. He gives us grace and glory. The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right."

1 Peter 3 says, "Turn away from evil and do good. Seek peace and pursue it. The eyes of the Lord watch over those who do right, and his ears are open to their prayers, but the Lord turns his face against those who do evil.”

When I recognize Jesus is Lord…

When Christ is Lord of my life, he is Lord of my actions. He is Lord of my attitude. He is Lord of my answers. One day we will stand before him, and every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that he is Lord. The difference it makes if we do that now is that it will be a time of celebration. It will be a time of exaltation.

So the question we need to consider is: Is Christ Lord of all? We will all have those moments. Have grace for yourself. Use this tool daily; ask yourself if Christ was Lord of that answer? Was Christ Lord of that attitude? Was that action done with Christ as Lord?

Feel free to use this tool; I hope it encourages you.
