Christ Over Everything - ColossiansSample

Theme: Set Your Mind on Things Above
Paul begins this chapter with a powerful shift in focus: since you’ve been raised with Christ, set your heart and mind on things above. This is a call to reorient your thoughts and desires. Your life is now hidden with Christ in God, which means your true identity is found in Him, not in the world.
What you think about most reveals what you value. When your mind is consumed by earthly concerns, it’s easy to lose sight of God’s purpose and peace. But when you lift your gaze to Christ, your perspective changes, and your life begins to align with heaven’s priorities.
This isn’t a denial of reality—it’s a redirection of focus. Setting your mind on things above is not escapism; it’s anchoring your life in what’s eternal.
Daily Application: Take five minutes today to silence distractions and focus on Jesus. Meditate on a verse from this passage and ask God to help you align your thoughts with His truth.
