Session 10: Constructive Thinking – Building by Mindsets
Constructive Thinking-Knowing the Will of God aka Heavens Determinations and building into them. We have to have an appropriate response and know directionally how to move into His leading.
In the Hebraic mindset every thought is a posture. How are we to connect postures with thoughts in our dreams? Ask questions. Is it a resurrected thought? Revelatory?
I must decrease so that He may INCREASE. Decreased thoughts lead to resurrected thoughts!
Thoughts are building blocks-Living Stones—————-1 Peter 2.5 and Hebrews 4:11-13
-Thoughts help us know (connect with) His will
-Thoughts help us discern between what’s His will and our will.
-Thoughts help us to see patterns and cycles and in understanding patterns we can then engage them accordingly with new thoughts.
-Thoughts help us identify and connect with who we are becoming.
-Thoughts help us to anchor ourselves in the multiplicity of His nature.
-Thoughts help us to see cultures rightly for the good and bad.
-Thoughts help to form a new cause and right motives.

Brain is the Head of the Body.
The brain is arguably the most important organ in the human body. It controls and coordinates actions and reactions, allows us to think and feel, and enables us to have memories and feelings—all the things that make us human.
7 Colors in a Rainbow-Fullness-a reminder he would never flood the earth again. 7 Fold Expression. We take this for granted.
There are seven colors in the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet.
The Power of Remembering and Recalling. (Trauma)
-What you give time to is what you will see. (Time, Talent, Treasure)
-Remind definition-to cause to remember. Thoughts establish a memory base to build off of and they remind us of who we are or what He did for us. Many of us have to make new memories and erase old ones. He forgets about them and tosses them into the sea of forgetfulness.
-There are things hard wired into us-DNA of thoughts forming a FREQUENCY and SOUND.
-New ways to connect……with truth.
-Think about an electrical grid system……..every thought is sourced by something or someone. Who’s the Source?
Philippians 4:8 – Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things.
Definition of Culture-Way of thinking……read the Webster’s dictionary.
-Greenhouse Effect
-A Greenhouse Effects everything and causes it to grow. Setting a healthy environment
-Vision with the greenhouse and hearts connected and getting what they need. Those who thirst and hunger they shall be filled.
-Matthew 6-your kingdom (thoughts) come your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
***The Mind of Christ-1 Corinthians 2:16***
-We have the mind of christ-IDENTITY
Deuteronomy 30:11-14
Romans 12-We prove the will of God by obeying and releasing!
As a man thinketh in His heart so He is-Proverbs 23:7
As He is we are-1 John 4:17….Christ is always expressing His thoughts towards us. Dreams, Visions and Prophesy.
Breaking Down Thinking Patterns in Dreams
-What is the person thinking-Perception.
-What is He thinking? What does His will relay to us? Directional?
-Collective Wisdom-Discerning all the thoughts and piecing them all together. Form a message.
What Nature of the Lord is speaking in this situation? Anchor it here.
**Daniel 7:25-How the enemy seeks to change to thoughts of Gods people to change the appointed times of Gods purpose and determination.
-Watchman focus
-Words can shift this as we prophesy the opposite.
-Reformers-going against the grain and permeating culture with Heavens thoughts.
**Jonah 1:6-Call upon your God, if so be that God will think (shine upon us) that we perish not.
What thoughts are being replaced? Graham Cooke and flipping thoughts.
–Isaiah 60
-Beauty for Ashes, Joy for Mourning, Garment of Praise for a Spirit of Heaviness.
Thoughts open up vision.
-Know the Word, See the Word (Allow it to immerse your hearts)
-Dreams are an invasion of the thoughts of God in pictures and symbolism. Tie it to the
Word.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the words of God. (Optical nerve)
Thoughts are to stimulate our senses as they SOURCE THEM! The Supply of Christ.
I have been crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in Me.
-New thinking base-I don’t think about myself…..I think as He thinks. Galatians 2
We have permission to think like Him! Know His thoughts and know His ways.
BIBLE-The Pendulum of Thinking.
Coming out of Egypt-out of the yoke of bondage. (Bad Thinking)

–John 16:2-you’ll kill him and think your doing God a favor.
Romans 12 The Passion Translation (TPT)
The Transforming Power of the Gospel
12 Beloved friends, what should be our proper response to God’s marvelous mercies? I encourage you to surrender yourselves to God to be his sacred, living sacrifices. And live in holiness, experiencing all that delights his heart. For this becomes your genuine expression of worship.
2 Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you,[a] but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in his eyes.
Colossians 3:2-Set your mind…..
Jeremiah 29:11-Know His thoughts towards us… plan ands purpose.
Directing the thoughts-are they yours or the dreamers???
**PROGRESSION**
1-Thoughts 2-Image 3-Desire 4-Action
When we’re charting dreams were charting His thought towards us and other people and instances. Thoughts into others is insight and wisdom and can look like windows.
REGIONAL THINKING
He who has the ability to influence others thoughts has power……Authority (i.e. principality)
ACTS 19 and the riot at Ephesus. Changing thoughts over regions.
Principalities, Powers and Rulers have the ability to influence your thoughts. They actually have structures set up to entice you to feed them and act as if they are the norm…..everyone is doing it. To think differently you are labeled an outcast. (We must see into the obscure things for what they are)
-LGBTQ-Perversion, Anarchy, Rebellion ad Lawlessness-Rooted in slavery mindsets., Intimidation/Terror, Racism and Religion. (Just a few examples)
**When we find out the thoughts over a situation we can carry His thoughts in intercession and leverage them as weapons.
2 Kings 13:8-Strike the ground and open the eastern window.
See it and launch the truth……declare it and destroy the enemy.
*Window represents vision *(to peer out from) and Elisha represents the king and the prophet working together to send the arrow deliverance into the land.
What are the thoughts of the dreamer?
What are his or her thoughts? What are Gods thoughts? (Practice separating them)
What is the message being connected?
As we can be entrusted to decode the thoughts of God over our life He will give them to us for nations and other spheres of influence.
Interpreting is just discerning His thoughts (Ways) and revealing them to others.
Josephs call as a interpreter was his road to wisdom to becoming a governor/leader of a nation. Look at Josephs Dreams……also look at the connecting piece……always a fine line and thread in the dreamers dreams if you pay attention.
PRACTICE THINKING-
1- Be aware of what you think so you can take captive improper thoughts!
2- Know the Word and Meditate on it.
3- Ask questions why you believe what you believe.
4- Ponder the word in your heart like Mary.
5- Journal and write what you’re thinking.
6- How can I make the word applicable in my life?
7- Practice discerning and perceiving your thoughts and others thoughts…….not motives.
To think-to consider, count, to esteem, to judge, suppose, impute, wreckon, estimate, calculate, understand, perceive, consider, think or understood. Hebrews 4 and Revelation 3-Appearing-Living and Dead. One House-Transition and Aligning to love His Appearing. New name, New City, New Jerusalem. Old and New-Tel Aviv-Marry Old to the New. BE AN OVERCOMER. CROSSOVER. NAKED and UNASHAMED.
*Thinking Patterns-Behaviors that lead to death or life. Cutting off and resupplying the source.
