Look And Be Changed!


‘but we all, with the 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’ (2 Cor 3:18).

As a New Creation in Christ, we are given the ‘glory mirror’, which is the Word of God, ‘the perfect Law of Liberty’ to imitate yourself.  This is what meditation is all about.  This mirror shows who you are in Christ.  As you look at it, you are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory.

James explained it this way, ‘but be doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.  For if anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror, for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forget what kind of man he was.  But he who looks (meditate God’s Word) into the perfect Law of Liberty and Continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a Doer of the Word, this one will be blessed in what he does.’    You are not who others describe you but you are the one what God described you who you are in His Word.

For example, 2 Cor 5:17 says, ‘therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he IS a NEW CREATION; old things have passed away; BEHOLD (SEE), ALL THINGS HAVE BECOME NEW.’  This is how God sees you - a New Creation in Him.  Take time everyday and quietly ponder over this Scripture.  Reflect and contemplate yourself and start to say what you see and declare who you are in Christ.  How will you live as a New Creation if you don’t know what God has described in His Word?  Old life, habits, lifestyle, and sickness have passed away; see yourself that you are no longer that old man but you are a New Creation in CHRIST.  All things have become new!  Your history begins with Christ.  You have come to the place called CHRIST.   You program your mind according to God’s way of thinking.  You look and act like it. 

God’s Word says in 1 John 5:4, ‘for whatever is born of God (whatever proceeds from God) overcomes the world.  And this is the victory that has overcome the world – our faith’.  See yourself in this word as an over-comer of the world for you are born of God.  Start your day spending at least 15 minutes meditating His Word and act as what it says!  You walk in this consciousness all day and the Holy Spirit will help you to live this life.  God’s Word transforms you into the same image.



CONFESS WITH ME

I AM WHO GOD SAYS I AM!
AS I LOOK INTO THIS GLORY MIRROR BEING
TRANSFORMED INTO THE SAME IMAGE
FROM GLORY TO GLORY!
GOD’S WORD IS WORKING IN ME MIGHTILY AND
TRANSFORMING ME DAILY.

IN JESUS NAME.  AMEN.
