                                                                  Attitudes                                                  by Rev. Maltby

 An attitude is not happy unless it expresses itself, good or bad. A person’s attitude is based upon having life, or having life more abundantly. John 10:10 – The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
A person’s attitude often speaks louder than words. It is the spokes-person of their life.
Phil. 2:3, 4 – Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others.
Jesus’ attitude – Phil. 2: 5–8 – Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus Who be in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bond servant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in the appearance of a man he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.
1 Cor. 2:16 – For who has known the mind of the Lord? But we have the mind of Christ.
Romans 12: 1, 2 – I urge you therefore brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Four attributes that may influence a person’s attitude are:
a.)Ability – God given talents. What you are capable of doing.
b.)Motivation – Personal desires or wants determines what we enjoy or like to do.
c.)Attitude – determines how well we will perform a task. Pvb. 16:18- Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.
d.)Insecurity – Holding back or not being “yourself” because of fear of man’s opinion of you. Pvb. 29:25- The fear of man brings a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord will be safe.
Four attributes of Jesus’ attitude are:
a.)Selflessness – Matthew 26:39-42- Jesus prayed “Father if it be possible, let this cup pass from Me, nevertheless, not as I will but as You will.” John 6:38- For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.
b.)Submitted – Phil. 2:8- Jesus humbled Himself to the death at the cross. John 13:5- Jesus washed the disciple’s feet.
c.)Security – Jesus wasn’t moved by what people said or thought. Matthew 23 – Jesus openly rebuked the scribes and Pharisees and called them hypocrites because of their unfaithfulness and self-made righteousness.
d.)Confidence - Jesus was confident in knowing who He was. John 14:6 – Jesus said, “I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes unto the Father except through Me. John 11:25 Jesus said to her (Martha), I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he die, he may live.
  As followers of Jesus Christ, how can we expect our gifts, talents and abilities to flourish and excel without asking for God’s divine help and direction “before” we start each day?
James 4:2b – …Yet you do not have because you do not ask.
Proverbs 3:5, 6 – Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path.
Proverbs 16:3, 9 – Commit your works to the Lord, and your thoughts will be established. A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps.
Psalm 37:5 – Commit your way unto the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.
  Sometimes a person loses focus and direction from the Lord because of the cares of this world, the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires for other things cause confusion or being led astray. Mk. 4:19
James 4:7, 8 – Submit to God, resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, purify your hearts and don’t be doubleminded.
  God hates pride. A person with pride is like a person that has bad breath. Everyone knows except that person, and everyone keeps distant to avoid the foul odor. God also wants us to need Him like little children need their parents to take care of them.
Luke 14:11 – Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.
Matthew 18:4 – … whoever humbles himself as this little child is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Proverbs 29:11, 23 – A fool vents all his feelings, but a wise man holds them back. A man’s pride will bring him low, but the humble in spirit will retain honor.
Proverbs 23:7- For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
  What is on the inside will eventually become on the outside, even if you don’t speak it, by your body language. Attitudes and actions speak louder than words. A person acts out and becomes what they are thinking. Eyes and ears are gateways to the heart. Be careful what you see and hear. People do not care what you know until they know that you care.
  An attitude can be your best friend or your worst enemy. We must “put on” happiness no matter what the circumstance. Bad and good attitudes spread like a rumor and are also contagious. Attitudes are more honest than words. It draws or rejects people to or from us.
John 2:1-10 – The servant’s attitude when Jesus turned the water to wine.
a.)Whatever is asked you to do, do it with the right attitude like a little child, without questioning or pride.
b.)Do it even if you have a lot of problems, short of time or think that it is ridiculous. God will reward you.
c.)Do it even if you are not encouraged by man. God is your best encourager.
d.)Do it even if you don’t know the whole plan or process. (Abraham, Joseph, Moses, Joshua, David, Daniel)
You can fail and not be a failure. A person is only a failure when they quit.
Psalm 34:1 – I will bless the Lord at all times. His praise shall be continually in my mouth. (no matter how you feel)
a.)Speak positively “in faith.” Hebrews 11:6 - It is impossible to please God without faith.
b.)“Put on” a good attitude. Colossians 3:12 - …”put on” tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, …
