Our Scripture texts today are from 2Chron 7.11-16 and Acts 9.1-9 from the thought "Make That Change!" There are four principles we can glean from the New Testament text that will help us transform. You see, effective change on the outside will not happen until personal transformation occurs on the inside.
To make that change:
1. We must become aware. AWARENESS is the first step in TRANSFORMATION.
2. We must be willing the hear the hard truth. EMPATHY is the second step in TRANSFORMATION.
3. We must be willing to do the work. OPPORTUNITY is the third step in TRANSFORMATION.
4. We must actually do the work. ENGAGEMENT is the fourth step in TRANSFORMATION.
WE can all change. Change starts with the person in the mirror. STAND UP and BE the CHANGE that you want to SEE! When God's people make the necessary changes in our lives the WORLD will begin to see the Christ in us and begin to change too! Make that change!
