We often hear the term "transformation" thrown around, and it can be easy to think of it as a quick and instantaneous process. However, true transformation is more akin to metamorphosis - a gradual and ongoing process of change. This process is not something that can be rushed, but rather it takes time through worship and the consistent intake of the word of God.
In order for any life to truly be transformed, it must undergo some measure of change. Until our minds are renewed, we will remain conformed to the patterns and limitations of the world around us. But, as Romans 12:1-2 reminds us, "Therefore, I urge you brothers, in view of GOD’S mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to GOD-this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."
The power to transform our lives lies in the word of God and the consistent meditation on it. When we engage in this practice, we begin to see life from God's perspective rather than the limited view of the world. As Revelation 3:20 says, "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me." The Lord is knocking at the door of our minds, waiting for us to open it and allow Him access to our spirits.
The key to opening this door is found in Psalms 119:30, "I have chosen the way of truth, I have set my heart on your laws." It is through meditating on the word of God that we open the door to our minds and allow transformation to occur. This is a process that requires agreement with the word of God and a commitment to consistently engaging with it.
We hope this blog has been enlightening and encouraging on your journey of mind transformation. Remember, change is a gradual process, but with the help of the Lord and a commitment to His word, true transformation is possible.
