BE TRANSFORMED(2)

Text : Romans 12:2

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.(NLT)

Having known that our  transformation is very important, we must therefore seek this experience wholeheartedly and dilligently.

".....be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind" Romans 12:2. Our transformation comes by and through our mind renewal. Transformation is a continuous and an ongoing  process. Your mind cannot be transformed by mere wishful thinking. It takes your active participation with God to experience transformation.

LET'S quickly look at the following participation we must undertake to experience continuous transformation.

 *1. Get in the Word.* 

Ephesians 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

The word of God is a purifier. It's a cleanser. Though the word of God is the purifier, yet it your responsibility to present yourself before the word for it to perform its cleansing work.

When the word of God permeates your mind,  it changes your pattern of thoughts, worldviews and perspectives. It makes you see and receive God's thoughts and views. "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly....."Colossians 3:16. When the word dwells in you richly, the result is Transformation.

 *2. Meditation in the word* 

But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.Psalms 1:2.

 *3. The Blood of Jesus*  

Just think how much more the blood of Christ will purify your conscience from sinful deeds so that you can worship the living God. For by the power of the eternal Spirit, Christ offered himself to God as a perfect sacrifice for our sins.Hebrews  9:14  

The Blood of Jesus cleanses our conscience from evil and sinful deed. We must continually come under its cleansing and purging power.

 *Ou//r transformation comes through the word in our MOUTHS and in our HEARTS continually.* 

Bible reading: Mathew 17:1-6.

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...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

BEWARE OF DOGS

Text :  Philippians 3:2. Beware of the dogs! Beware of the evil workers! Beware of the mutilators! Usually, when you see the inscription "BEWARE OF DOGS", you instantly know there's a wild or trained dog around the corner, hence, the need to beware.  However, when God says 'Beware of dogs,' He wasn't actually referring to dogs as in 'animals' but to animals in human skin. Note that this caution was given to believers against other so-called  believers.  That is, some people within the church that we refer to as brothers and sisters are actually operating in the capacity of dogs.Though fellow worshippers in the church are called brothers and sisters, but if they behave like wild animals, know that they are dogs in humans skin- BEWARE. Matthew  7:6 says *Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.*  Essentially, dogs don't have capacity to r...
