The Kadosh L’Adonai Thought Life
Friday, January 2, 2026
The high priest of Israel wore holy garments. What he wore on his head had to match the holiness of his garments. Thus, he was commanded to wear a gold crown that said: “Kadosh L’ Adonai – Holy unto the Lord.” I Peter 2:9 says that you’re now a royal priesthood. Your thought life is what crowns your mind. Thus your thought life needs to be consistent with the rest of your life; in harmony with your ministry and with your faith in God. When you pray or worship the Lord, are you thinking about something else? When you take action, it needs to be consistent with what you’re thinking – what you mean in your heart. Think what you mean, say what you think, mean what you say, do what you mean–it’s all together. Your actions and thoughts need to be pure. God wants you to be consistent in every way. He wants your prayer life and your thought life to be holy. Let Him have His way. Let your thought life become Kadosh L’Adonai, holy unto the Lord, and as pure as a crown of gold.
From Message #1136 – The Spirit Mind
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 10:5
TODAY’S MISSION – Today, let your mind dwell on the Word and love of God – so that your thoughts might become Kadosh L’Adonai – Holy unto the Lord.

Comment:
Once again, reflecting on Chapter 10 in it’s entirety : “Paul’s Apostolic Authority” , enriches the passage and gives us context. Here is one of the footnotes in the Apologetics study bible:
“10: 3-5 In keeping with his personal strategy in engaging in discussion with jews in synagogues and Athenians on the Areopagus (Mars Hill), Paul here advocated the importance of depending upon divine resources rather that human methods and strategies. When wee us theological and philosophical reasoning in presenting or defending the gospel, we are to do so graciously, humbly and prayerfully (1 Peter 3:15)
Also, the other devotional this morning from Oswald Chamber’s : “My Utmost for His Highest” complements this devotion. (“Let Scripture testify to scripture”)
