Being transformed by the Word of God – Prayer for July 5. Becoming transformed is not something of the physical alone but it must feature the inner part of us too. Let’s tell God to transform us within and without.
Bible Verse for Today
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will. (Romans 12:2)
Verse 1 of the same chapter stated how important it is for us to present ourselves to God as a living sacrifices. As Christians, this won’t be possible for us to achieve if we don’t renew our minds. There are things tempting in this world, things that can make Christians fall.
Even though we are in this world we shouldn’t be of the world.
That is why we need to reshape ourselves by transformation. This is not what we can achieve by ourselves, it is through the power of God that we can be transformed.
We all wait for being transformed by the Word of God. If we don’t get transformed, it will not be easy for us to test and approve what the will of God is because there won’t be directions from God – we will just find ourselves doing anything even if it’s not God’s will.
When Jesus was transformed, his cloth, his face, and everything about him changed – transformation is not only changing physically, it is changing spiritually too. Matthew 13:43 “Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the Kingdom of their Father.”
When we are transformed, we have full access to the Kingdom of God – we would be changed from being a slave to being called a son and a friend of God. John 15:15 “I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.”
