Trusting the Right Mirror - Myron Golden Lecture

hello YouTube Myron golden here and I know you like this part of this video series but you're going to love the entire thing I invite you to go back and watch the entire thing in sequential order so if this is if you're jumping in the middle somewhere go back watch the first video then the second then the third like watch these videos in sequential order they will bless you beyond measure you haven't forgotten anything every experience stored which is why you can't Trust trust the soulless realm and the soulless part of a man why because it stored your education it stored your experiences it stored your environment but your education may have been wrong it's still stored your experiences may have been bad it's still stored the environment you were raised in may have been very toxic and totally dysfunctional and utterly abnormal but it's still stored and because it's all still there you cannot get rid of it it is there at a subconscious level sometimes unwillingly things trigger or bring back something you would rather forget that makes sense that's the soulish realm that's the arena of spiritual warfare according to uh Paul he says the weapons of our Warfare are not carnal but they are Mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds where are the strongholds he said casting down imaginations and every High thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God so whatever is going on in your mind that's contradicting the knowledge of God that is fundamentally a spiritual stronghold and you know strongholds they're not built overnight they start with a suggestion the suggestion if entertained becomes a scenario and the scenario if viewed long enough becomes a stronghold now you have a belief in your mind that is contrary to the knowledge of God and this is all happening in your soulish Realm that's the battle the battle for the mind and that's why in fact you know Salvation is not a one-time experience you know there's a process involved that that transformation is the result of Renewing Your Mind oh I really want to talk about renewing the mind and that's it's very very important I might do it tomorrow night with the soul you are self-conscious but with the spirit you are God conscious and it is your spiritual Essence that connects you to the Limitless the boundless realm of God your body was formed by a biological process and the state of your soul was formed by a sociological process but your spirit was created by God and it is at that level that you are Godlike it is that part of you that's God see when we tell people that they are Godlike they straight away start looking in the wrong mirror see you can hear that you're Godlike all day you can say you're the people could tell you're the image and the likeness of God all day but you're checking in with the wrong mirror can I give you the three mirrors you must not look in to find out who you are the first mirror that can never tell you who you are is the physical mirror because all the physical mirror says mirror right just forget it that's what it says Mira can only reflect your physical body and you are much more than your physical body so you'll never figure out who you are looking in the physical mirror you actually you know you'll never know the part of you that is great by looking in the physical mirror because all the physical mirror can reflect to you is your body which is only one part of you and your body is the smallest part of you it's the house in which spirit and soul are living so if you see a house you know it's just a house until you meet the occupants wrong mirror you'll never figure out who you are by looking in that mirror are you ready for the next mirror circumstance okay that's exactly what it says if you look in the mirror of circumstance what what is your circumstance exactly what it says right if you look in the mirror of circumstance what is your circumstances circumstance is the circle in which you are standing so you're going to look at your health you're going to look at your wealth you're going to look at all of these features of your life to figure out who you are wrong mirror because where you are in life doesn't tell anyone who you are in life oh I need to say that again where you are right now doesn't tell me who you are blessed people go through bad places and some of God's best have had seasons in prison and if you were to look at Joseph in prison and try to figure out from his circumstance who he is you would have made a mistake blessed people have been in Lion's dens blessed people have been in fiery furnaces blessed people have wandered through wildernesses blessed people have even been hung on an Old Rugged Cross between two thieves but you can't look at the circumstance to determine who the person is and you must never allow your circumstance to Define you only to refine you [Music] my circumstances must refine me but they must never Define me um that was good do not confuse your identity with your address my address is where I am my identity is who I am wrong mirror third wrong mirror we look into it's called other people's opinions okay that's the wrong way you know when God tells you that when God tells you that you're his image and his likeness don't look for confirmation to the left or to the right because half of those people are miseducated misinformed and competing with you they've embraced doctrines of scarcity and feel like if you're winning they're losing and they feel like they can get up by pulling you down and so you get critics you get haters you know you get detractors uh the minute you start trying to do something it's their opinions now I kind of could spend two hours on the opinion thing because I think that's it's important but I'm not going to spend two hours on it your opinion of me is not the truth of me because your knowledge of me is limited you don't know me and I don't know you so whatever opinion I have of you is probably wrong so if you're going to know yourself you don't look in those mirrors there's one mirror you need to look into that is the word the word and I'm going to put the word right up here again the Bible tells you who you really are and the sooner you know who you really are rejecting the body image information rejecting the circumstantial information rejecting the opinions of others information and embracing who you really are you are now stepping into a new level of consciousness and you are now able to think thoughts that other people do not think
