CONFORMING TO HIS IMAGE
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, land acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:2KJV)
There is an image portray for us as believers. This image is the image of God. The scripture described Jesus Christ as the image of the invisible God in
(Col. 2:14-15). Who is the invisible God? our God the creator of the heaven and earth is the invisible God. The scripture above tells us how passionate Paul was to the romans Christians, he beseech them, encouraged them to live in the consciousness of the fact that their body was fully atoned for and that they should presents their bodies as a living sacrifice. In today's world, we see how several people are forming and conforming to different ideology and images, several people even go to the extent of forming their own mindset and reasonings. We are encourage not conform to the system of this world but the system of Christ. What are you conforming to. The world has away of influence on people but as believers we are in the world, but not of the world, and at the same time not to conform to it, irrespective of the dictate of the system, we are not in any way permitted to conform to the world system. The only one the scripture showed us to conform our lives to is the image of Christ, there is a pattern and doctrine of Christ we need to imbibe, outside this all other pattern is unapproved. How do we conform to his image, we must be ready to summit to his leadership and allow his life to be rubbed on us. As we look daily to him every facet of life, Jesus become formed in you, until Christ be formed in you, you are yet to conform to his image. Salvation cannot be taken to be conforming to his image, salvation is just a medium to knowing him, after knowing him(Rom 10:9-10), what come next is to begin to learn of him (Matthew 11:29), how does he do things, If Jesus does not lie, as a little Christ, lies should be absent from my life completely. As you do this with complete obedience and determination, conforming is taking place gradually. I pray you will conform totally to his image by his grace in Jesus name. Shalom!!!
SHALL WE PRAY
Father, in the name, give me the grace required to conform totally to your image in Jesus name.
