Be Transformed
James 1:21; Psalm 19:7
Romans 12: 2 "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."" It is God's will that you transform from glory to glory. At new birth, you were born into God's realm of glory. That was the beginning of experiencing glory. It sure wasn't the ultimate of the glory experience in God. It was the start of the unfolding of it. As we continue in our walk with God, we move from glory to glory. This is our spiritual transfiguration. The Word of God teaches us not to conform to this world; their ways and value systems; but to transform by the renewing of our minds. It follows that the renewing of the mind is the biblical key to our spiritual transformation. To renew the mind is to accept the thoughts of God about us and everything about Him according to the Word of God. Renewing the mind is letting the Word form our values and culture (way of life). How? This is made possible by meditating and acting on the Word. Beloved, as you learn to set your gaze on the Word of God, beholding the image of God, you are changed from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of God. This is God’s way of bringing you into the fullness of Christ in all things. You see, there is so much to enjoy in God. There is so much in store for the believer. We must not settle for less. The higher life is our life; we are meant to soar with His from glory to glory. Beloved, let the spirit transform you through the word of God.
Other Scriptures for Meditation: 2 Corinthians 3:18, 1 Timothy 4:15
My Solid Front (Confession)
In the Name of Jesus, I set my gaze on God's Word. I allow the Word of God form my values and culture. AMEN
