Are you willing to be fully transformed for the purpose of being GOD’S habitation here on earth?
Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 12:
1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, Holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect Will of God.
Our spirits are perfect in Christ. Paul now focuses on our minds and our bodies. If we couldn’t have Holy and acceptable bodies, FATHER would not tell us that it is our reasonable service. This is one aspect of our genuine expression of worship and reverence to FATHER.
What does being conformed to the world mean? Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you. Instead, be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s Will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in HIS Eyes.
What is the ultimate Holy and acceptable body? Wouldn’t it be to manifest and radiate HIS glory outwardly?
Luke recorded by The Holy Spirit in Luke chapter 9:
28 Eight days later, Jesus took Peter, Jacob, and John and climbed a high mountain to pray.
29 As He prayed, His Face began to glow until a blinding glory streamed from Him. A radiant glory illuminated His entire Body. His brightness became so intense that it made his clothing blinding white, as multiple flashes of lightning. 30-31 All at once, two men appeared in glorious splendor: Moses and Elijah. They spoke with Jesus about His soon departure from this world and the things the Father destined Him to accomplish in Jerusalem.
Communion is the sharing or exchanging of intimate thoughts and feelings, especially when the exchange is on a mental or Spiritual level. Isn’t that the essence of prayer? Jesus is our Example and His Body illuminated with an anointing that has been rarely seen in others. Why? Is it because we never expected this reality to manifest in us? If we are truly Sons (and Daughters) in the same likeness as Jesus, our Elder Brother, should we be able to manifest the same attributes as Him when He walked the earth?
Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 19:
23 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Assuredly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
24 And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God.”
25 When His disciples heard it, they were greatly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?”
26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
And in Mark chapter 9:
23 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
Was Jesus a Living, acceptable sacrifice during His earthly ministry? Absolutely! Was His Mind renewed by The Word? Yes, He was trained in The Word from His youth. He was sinless in all areas. Can we be sinless in all areas? Do we dare to believe “all things are possible to them who believe”?
Jesus also spoke in John chapter 14:
25 “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you.
26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My Name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
Luke recorded by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 5:
14 Continually more and more people believed in the Lord and were added to their number—great crowds of both men and women.
15 In fact, when people knew Peter was going to walk by, they carried the sick out to the streets and laid them down on cots and mats, knowing the incredible power emanating from him would overshadow them and heal them.
16 Great numbers of people swarmed into Jerusalem from the nearby villages. They brought with them the sick and those troubled by demons—and everyone was healed!
If such power was emanating from Peter, shouldn’t we expect that same power as we mature in our souls and bodies?
