TRANSFORMER

Text : Romans 12:2

And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind,  that you may prove what is that good, perfect and acceptable will of God_ . 

From our text,  it's obvious that you can be either of these two things :

1. A Conformist 

2. A Transformer.

Now,  to be a Conformist is very simple, just do nothing and flow with the trend(that's why majority of people are conformists). However,  we have been forewarned not to be a Conformist. "Do not be conformed to this world." The system of this world is arranged to make men conform. We live in a world where sinners and sinful acts are celebrated.

However, the standard of the Lord stands sure.  God’s solid foundation still stands. It has this inscription on it: “The Lord knows those who belong to him,” and “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord must turn away from evil.” 2Timothy 2:19. 

To this end,  the word of God is coming to you today that you should be transformed by the renewing of your mind. That is,  to be transformed is a matter of 'your mind'.  Transformation comes when your mind is renewed. And your mind cannot be renewed if you are still in conformity with this world. 

When your mind is renewed,  you will be able to prove these three things :

1. *The good will of God:* The godly values and ethical attitudes. 

2. *The acceptable will of God.:*  What is put to test and finds out that the thing tested meets the specifications laid down by God. 

3. *The perfect will of God* : God's  plan and purpose for you. 

 Therefore,   “Get away from them   and separate yourselves from them,”   declares the Lord,   “and don’t touch anything unclean.   Then I will welcome you.2Co 6:17 This is God's express instruction to you.  The only way to desist from being a conformist is  to separate yourself from the worldly system.

 *ARE YOU A CONFORMIST OR A TRANSFORMER?*

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
