Romans 12:2
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be TRANSFORMED by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is- his good, pleasing and perfect will.
His will only, none of the will comes from our own desires and flesh will stand. Because we cannot serve two masters, it is either Christ or Ourselves (Ego). That is why he always urges us to die to ourselves.
John 12:24 "I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life."
And then he said in Mark 13:13
"And everyone WILL hate you because you are My Followers. But the one who endures to the end will be saved."
Faith in Christ does not build up in one day, and it is never a short race. Rather so, it requires persistence and patience which will build up the characteristics of endurance in the long run.
And our persistence in faith in pursuing the things that yet to come, the visions and desires God inputted in our hearts is the best thing we can offer to our God.
Because the Kingdom of God is the opposite of the pattern of this world, we will be persecuted in our daily setting, even feel like allien, Paul even said, we are just short-time visitors of this earth, but each of us has come here with an unique calling and purpose.
If you are tired of running the never-ending race called "life" on your own, welcome to Jesus' big and powerful arms, don't be afraid to come to his embrace again and again.
He knows each of your thought, he knows what you desire and what is actually the best for you. He even knows about you more than you do about yourself, because his love for you is so big that he even gazes at you when you are sleeping. He knows each toss and flip and all kind of sounds you make while sleeping.
Who can know you more than Jesus does?
If you are tired of this life or doing this life on your own or seeking the change, all you need to do is simply pray to God and confess to him, saying: Dear God, I acknowledge that I am a sinner, and I need you to intefere in my life, and I want you to be the Lord of my life. Thank you Jesus for dying on the cross for my sins, so all the chains, tangled riddles and messy situations in my life could be broken in your holy name. Thank you for sending your helper Holy Spirit to me so I can now enjoy the best & free-of-charge counsellor all of my life! Thank you for your holy presence! In Jesus's Mighty Name I pray!"
There is power in the name of Jesus :) to help you flip not only your life but also the people around you upside down.
However, that change has to start from you first, let's the renewal of the spirit and mind fills you so people can see our God's glory and grace and mercy outflow from your life first, so they can see how good our God is.
Don't be defeated by the pattern of this world, rather, be the salt and the light which is meant to help the world from being rotten.
Q:Why we don't find the deepest satisfaction rather so trials and affliction everywhere everyday: --->
A:John 15:19 "If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you."
Q:Our spirits & souls cry out even without mentally functioning eagerly awaits to be together forever with our savior --->
A: Roman 8:23-25 "And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience."
Give all the Glory & Honour to our God.
Dear God, please strip away and fleshy and weighty thoughts that do not come from you which is surrounding us like gray clouds. Dear Lord, we don't need gray clouds, all we want to is witness your glory and live under the great colorful cloud of witness and protection.
In Jesus name please strip away and thoughts and lies that do not bring glory to you either come from you.
We only want YOU. Simply JESUS. We ONLY GLORY YOU.
