Ephesians 4:23 NLT Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes.

When we get saved, our spirits are born-again. However, our thoughts and attitudes are still the same.

In order to change our thoughts and attitudes, we must allow the Holy Spirit to change them. The Holy Spirit will tell us not to say something, apologize to that person, don’t watch that reel, or forgive him or her. The Holy Spirit can only make suggestions. Ultimately, it’s up to us to apply His suggestions to our lives. 

The Holy Spirit’s instructions will agree with the written word of God. He’s not going to tell us to get them back, worry about that, or treat someone better than someone else. Everything He tells us will align with the word of God.

Renewing our thoughts and attitudes is a lifelong process. Don’t think you have ever arrived. As long as we can be negatively influenced by the flesh, the Holy Spirit will be there to counter those influences with the word of God.
