TODAY’S SCRIPTURE

“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.”

TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
The word “transform” in the
original Bible language is metamorpho. It’s where we get our word
“metamorphosis.” When a caterpillar changes from a lowly worm into a
beautiful butterfly, it is called a metamorphosis.
The caterpillar starts out as
possibly one of the most unattractive insects. It’s very plain, nothing
special about it. But God destined the caterpillar to go through a
transformation. It goes from being one of the most ordinary creatures to one
of the most beautiful. It no longer has to crawl on the ground — it is
transformed into a beautiful butterfly.
Know today that as you
meditate on the Word, as you pray and worship and surrender every area of
your life to God, He is doing a work in you. He is transforming you from the
inside out. Trust Him and stay in the process knowing that He has great
things in store for your future.

The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
