Title: Allow transformation.

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God,

 that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, 

holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 

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.”‭‭Romans‬ ‭12:1-2‬ ‭KJV.

Do not be conformed (to be poured into the mould of this world in the way you think and act, in your values and attitudes).

 You won't avoid being melted but choose the mould you will be poured into-

 be moulded into the word of God-your thinking, actions, values and attitudes.

 The transformation (or metamorphosis) that results from the renewing of your mind

 is akin to the way a worm or caterpillar (wriggling, crawling) becomes a butterfly (true freedom, full of life and soaring).

Your thoughts, actions, values and attitudes determine whether you

 experience the victory of the life of God in your spirit or the defeat and death of the natural realm. 

Renewing your mind to the word of God facilitates your transformation.

 The word gives you the new values and attitudes you should conform yourself to.

 Point of reflection: Will you commit yourself to renewing your mind with the word of God daily

 so that you become transformed in the thinking of your mind and be ushered into the victory of the Life of Christ?

Apostle Dr Max and Joyce Matonhodze
