  1. Negativity proceeds from: • The reservoir of the past • The judgments of the present • The foreboding of the future

  2. Moving beyond ignorance Dealing with the hardness of our heart Eph4:17-18 So this I say, and affirm together with the Lord, that you walk no longer just as the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind, being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart;

  3. Renewed: A new way of thinking Eph 4:23-24 and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new self, which in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of the truth.

  4. What Is Metacognition? Metacognition refers to awareness of one’s own knowledge—what one does and doesn’t know—and one’s ability to understand, control, and manipulate one’s cognitive processes

  5. What Is Metacognition? Metacognition refers to awareness of one’s own knowledge—what one does and doesn’t know—and one’s ability to understand, control, and manipulate one’s cognitive processes Metacognition is your God-given mental feedback loop

  6. Metacognition in the Old Testament Psa42:5 Why are you in despair, O my soul? And why have you become disturbed within me? Hope in God, for I shall again praise Him For the help of His presence. Psa116:7 Return to your rest, O my soul, For the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.

  7. Metacognition in the New Testament Luk12:19 'And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry."’ Joh12:27 "Now My soul has become troubled; and what shall I say, 'Father, save Me from this hour'? But for this purpose I came to this hour.

  8. I don’t know how… I can’t do it… The God-given capability of the brain being re-wired: Neuroplasticity The God-given capability of the mind being changed: Metacognition

  9. I don’t know how… I can’t do it… Gal 5:17 For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please.

  10. The "auditory feedback loop" is the process of self-monitoring and correcting one's own speech (output). Auditory feedback is of maximal importance for the attainment of auditory goals and to acquire and produce fluent speech.

  11. The mind—mouth connection: Eph 4:23 and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, Eph 4:25a Therefore, laying aside falsehood, SPEAK TRUTH EACH ONE of you WITH HIS NEIGHBOR, … Eph4:29 Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth,…

  12. “speak” 623 times “Spoke” or “Spoken” 282 times “word” 1,179 times. “say” 2,414 times “said” 3,619 times “grace” 159 times “faith” 336 times “save” 336 times

  13. Understanding the mind—mouth connection: 2Co 4:13 But having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I BELIEVED, THEREFORE I SPOKE," we also believe, therefore we also speak,

  14. Understanding the mind—mouth connection: 1Co 2:12-13 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God, which things we also speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words.

  15. Words have the power to: Bless—Curse Jas 3:10 from the same mouth come both blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be this way.

  16. Words have the power to: Justify—Condemn Mat 12:36-37 "But I tell you that every careless word that people speak, they shall give an accounting for it in the day of judgment. "For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

  17. Words have the power to: Create—Destroy Psa33:6 By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host. Rev 19:21 And the rest were killed with the sword which came from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse, and all the birds were filled with their flesh..

  18. Words have the power to bring: Life—Death Pro 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit.

  19. Words have real power only in that they truthfully express the will, the intent, and the ability of the one speaking them.

  20. The boundary between written and spoken words is porous. The written word is perceived as having voice, a voice that is vocalized in the act of reading. Yet it is a voice that is dependent on living voices in order to assume agency Rom 3:19 Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, so that every mouth may be closed and all the world may become accountable to God;

  21. Begin with the Scripture Act 8:35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture he preached Jesus to him. The written word becomes the basis for the spoken word or proclamation
