TRANSFORMATION BY THE WORD
But we all, with open face
beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same
image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord (2 Corinthians 3:18).
As you study the Word of God, you see a glorious you, because the Word mirrors you. The picture of you that you see in the Word is
always one of glory. You’ll see that divinity is at work in you; you’ll see the power of an endless life. The more you see it, the more you’re transformed into the same image that you see in the Word. It’s an amazing spiritual principle. That’s the reality of how the Word of God works.
That’s why James admonishes us to keep looking into the Word of God, which he calls the perfect law of liberty (James 1:25). Keep looking at the scriptures that talk about your righteousness, your oneness with
the Lord, your triumphant life in Christ Jesus.
Jesus said in John 15:16, “…I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain….” This means He’s given you a life of endless prosperity; your success
shouldn’t be short-lived. Contemplate this every day. As you behold such words, the reality of what they say becomes your vital experience.
Through the Word, you’re established in righteousness and flourish like the palm tree, with great grace and glory! Maybe it’s your health; Isaiah 33:24 says “they that dwell in Zion shall not say, ‘I am sick.’” Meditate on it consciously. As you do, you’d come to the realization that the reason you don’t say, “I’m sick” is that you don’t get sick. You’re an associate of the God-kind; you have the indestructible life of
God in you.
The same goes for your safety and protection. The Word says in Psalm 23:4, “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.” That means no matter what happens, your safety is guaranteed in Christ. Christ is the environment in which you dwell; therefore, you’re forever in safety. Take this seriously. Outline areas where you want changes; search out the relevant scriptures and
meditate on them consciously. Praise God!
PRAYER
Dear Father, thank you for your glory in my life. As I constantly behold the glory in your Word for my health, finances, family, and safety, I’m transformed into the same image that I see, from glory to glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
