2 Corinthians 3:18 NKJV
But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

TRANSFORMED TO CHRIST LIKENESS

Initially the Bible affirms it that God with His great and mighty cabinet sat down and made utterances saying "Now let's make man in our own image". This utterance is proved to have been backed up with actions that's why you and I do exist but for a purpose and a task to fulfill.

It is one thing to know and hear about God and it is another thing of uniqueness to know and hear God. The Bible says that those who acknowledged Christ Jesus their personal lord and Savior He gave audacity to become heirs of the kingdom. Besides when this kind of acknowledgement is made life ceases to bring the same, things are started being perceived in another kind of realm which is of not normal men. Men that have died to themselves. What does the servant of God apostle Paul say, he says I die everyday. This dying is because something about him never remained the same when he encountered Christ Jesus, glory to God.

Many believers expect things and hold an illusion that their transformation comes by their role models who happen to be their spiritual Leaders and yet these have gotten their own weaknesses and the next thing you hear is that a brethren backslid and their excuse my pastor or leader wasn't living righteously so I quit God.

Child of Philippians tells us to workout our salvation, Romans asks to be transformed by the renewal of our mind. What's good, righteous, holy, deserving and presentable before God is what we ought to ponder about each and every day, for salvation is a journey therefore transformation is a journey too but let something about be witnessed and men will recognize you as being God's for we've regenerated by God. 

✍️ 
When you open to Christ Jesus, it's automatic that by all means something about you has to change. For what is made of God is God's.

Father in the name of Jesus Christ I thank because you work me out each and every day to your own likeness, I thank you that because of me men come to your knowledge. Amen

POWER OVER SIN

ELGON MISSION TEAM ~ DAILY DEVOTION Bible study department Sunday 16th June,2024 Galatians 5:24 (TLB) Those who belong to be Christ have nailed their natural evil desires to his cross and crucified them there.   POWER OVER SIN The strength for our conquering and our victory is drawn continually from Christ. The Bible does not teach that sin is completely eradicated from the Christian in this life, but it does teach that sin shall no longer reign over you.  The strength and power of sin have been broken. The Christian now has resources available to live above and beyond this world. The Bible teaches that whosoever is born of God does not practice sin. It is like the little girl who said that when the devil came knocking with a temptation, she just sent Jesus to the door.

WE ARE BORN TO LOVE Many of the times we do things either whole hearted or just hearted. And there in we can measure our commitment to that particular thing or activity.
