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.”
Are
you sick and tired of the way your life is going? Are you
disappointed with the outcome which you expected to be totally
different? Are you frustrated with all the empty promises you have
received which never materialized? If you expect your life to be
different, then you need to change your approach. If you keep living
the same way and doing the same things, you will continue to get the
same result. If you are tired of being beat up by this worldly
system, it is time for a change, it is time for a new beginning.
Would you like to wipe the slate clean and begin fresh and brand new?
You can in the Lord Jesus Christ!
God
has a perfect plan for you! However, He will set you apart from this
worldly system and make you holy unto Himself. You will not live
according to the custom or pattern of this current age. We cannot
follow the example of the world community and expect to draw near to
God. The customs and behavior of our world system are repulsive to
God. His command is, “Be ye holy; for I am holy” 1 Peter 1:16.
And again in 2 Cor. 2:16, “And what agreement hath the temple of
God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath
said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their
God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from among
them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean
thing; and I will receive you,..”
Our
standard is modeled in the life and teaching of Jesus Christ. Jesus
became the new template, the new and better way and He delivered the
plan in person. He became the living example through which those
desiring God are transformed and enter into a living personal
relationship with Him.
This
transformation is initiated by the renewing of the mind. The Word
states, “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:”
Phil. 2:5. Have the mind of Christ rejoicing in hope, patient in
tribulation and continuing instant in prayer. Walk in this life in
Divine communion with the Father having continual access to His
strength, power, wisdom and deliverance. We cannot think like the
world thinks and walk like the world walks and expect to be a citizen
of the Kingdom of God. That is why we must experience a change in our
temporal mindset, a spiritual transformation brought about by the
Holy Ghost in response to our obedience and submission to Him.
Thereby, we are restored to a level of communion that Adam
experienced in the garden before his sin. We are regenerated by the
Holy Spirit to walk in intimate, holy and unrestrained relationship
with God.
The
result of our intimate union with God is to know His perfect plan for
our life. God has a good, acceptable and perfect plan for each life
He has created. “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,
saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an
expected end” Jeremiah 29:11.
The
reason many people never fully understand and experience God's plan
for them is they lack that intimacy with God. Because of the mercy
and grace of the cross, God will meet us where we are. The redemptive
power of Jesus' blood will reach into the deepest darkness to rescue
anyone, anywhere. But, we must be willing by the Holy Spirit to leave
the darkness behind and step fully into the illuminating power of His
Word. By embracing His Truth and walking in obedience the door is
thrown fully open for intimate communion and revelation where He will
wipe the slate clean and you will start fresh and brand new? In the
Lord Jesus Christ you will find the perfect plan of God and launch a
new life and a new beginning! Thank you Jesus!!!
