transformed. The Gr. word, from which the Eng. word “metamorphosis” comes, connotes a change in outward appearance. Matthew uses the same word to describe the Transfiguration (Mt 17:2). Just as Christ briefly and in a limited way displayed outwardly His inner, divine nature and glory at the Transfiguration, Christians should outwardly manifest their inner, redeemed natures, not once, however, but daily (cf. 2Co 3:18; Eph 5:18). renewing of your mind. That kind of transformation can occur only as the Holy Spirit changes our thinking through consistent study and meditation of Scripture (Ps 119:11; cf. Col 1:28; 3:10, 16; Php 4:8). The renewed mind is one saturated with and controlled by the Word of God

Lord, May we all be as patient as you were to us, as we pray for those to turn to you, as the one who can save them from there sins, just as you saved us from ours.

Just as Satan tempted Jesus in the wilderness, by twisting the word of God, so shall he try to do to us, who follow Jesus. We must speak Gods truth to each other, and not worldly wisdom, which will lead us down a path of destruction. What will you choose, Life or Death? Choose Life! This world is not our eternal home.

God wants you to speak to him, with a heart that seeks him, and wants to know him more. He does not want some ritualist repitition. He also wants you to know him. The Bible tells us all that we need to know about him. Meditate on his word and tell him what’s on your heart and the Holy Spirit will guide and teach you.

The chapter starts out by say that we should be a living sacrifice to God. Our hearts should be/being transformed (metamorphosis), just like the caterpillar and butterfly. It also says we should not be conformed to this world of self centeredness, but be selfless and sacrificial to us as believers first, that they may see Hods love throu Gods love through us, ad well as demonstrate that love to those who do not know him, do that, they might know this amazing God through Jesus. May we do this not by our own strength, but through the power his holy spirit who lives in us, and guides us. AMEN!

Our wage, for going our own way, is eternal death, and separation from God. When we turn to Jesus in Faith, who gave his life for our rescue, we are forgiven from destruction, and given the gift of life, both now and for all eternity. Thank you Jesus!

The Apostles had not received the Holy Spirit yet. They had done many things for Jesus. Once they received the Spirit, they were able to do great things with Boldnes in the name of Jesus. How about you? Do you Believe? I believe and am not ashamed of the Gospel! May we declare with boldness, that in this sinful world, there are trials, but we have Victory thru Jesus. Not in world systems, man’s wisdom, world leaders, or any other created thing. Is is only through King Jesus!

We Are Not Ashamed………. For I am not a ashamed of the gospel , for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. May the grant us all strength, to stand firm in our faith, through his Holy Spirit. Thank you, Jesus.

For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, ” but the righteous man shall live by faith .”
Romans 1:17 NASB

Our bodies, given as a living sacrifice. In verse 2, it says, that we might be transformed. Just as Christ poured out his life for us, we are to give up our lives to him. It is a process, but the word transformed is from the word, metamorphosis. Think of the caterpillar transformed into the beautiful butterfly. Only God can do this in our lives, through the power of the Holy Spirit. Some believers process is faster or slower than others, but in the end, we will be transformed. Thank you, Jesus.

Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.
