🗣️ Episode Summary

In this deeply personal episode, Brother John Meador continues his series on being renewed in the spirit of the mind. He shares how true transformation begins not just with a powerful experience of God—but with a daily yielding to the Spirit. Renewal requires discipline, and discipline begins in the mind.

Brother John recounts his early walk with the Lord, marked by intense hunger for prayer, fasting, and the Word. He emphasizes that yielding to the Spirit is not confined to moments of worship—it’s a lifestyle of surrender, study, and obedience. From the saturation of his first encounter with God to the disciplined rhythms of fasting and scripture, he calls listeners to move beyond emotional moments and into a sustained relationship with Christ.

📖 Key Scriptures

• Psalm 119:105 – Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

🙏 First Steps Invitation

Let your first steps each day be a conscious yielding to the Spirit of God. Discipline your mind, saturate your spirit with the Word, and pursue a relationship—not just an experience. The Spirit of God desires to consume every part of your life. Will you let Him?
