FROM GLORY TO GLORY
2 Corinthians 3:18(But we all with open
face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord are changed into the same
image from gory to glory even by the Spirit of the Lord).
Life is a journey; but the road you
choose to follow is what will determine how glorious your journey will be. We
all are here on earth to fulfill our God ordained destiny and God has mapped
out every route we need to follow in order to get to our destination.
Stagnation is not part of His agenda for His children; it is a satanic agenda.
All God ever wanted is for us to be a replica of Him. In the beginning man was
originally created in the image of God, full of glory; but after the fall in
the Garden of Eden, man was stripped naked of his glory. Man lost his antenna
that connects him to God, the internal compass that guided man was lost and man
got disconnected. This internal compass that helps man to navigate through life
is the spirit of God in us. Jesus Christ came to restore the glory that man
lost through disobedience and it is only the obedience of Faith in the word of
God that can restore man back to his original state. Roman 5:19(For as by
one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall
many be made righteous). This restoration does not take place in one
day; it goes through stages. The first stage is new birth; it is the initiation
into the realm of glory. You have the responsibility of deciding your levels of
glory. As we continue in the obedience of the word of God; we move from glory
to glory. The word of God is God Himself; so, the more of His word we have in
us the more glorious we become. Roman 12:2(And be not conformed to this
world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that ye may prove
what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God). At new
birth we are baptized into Christ in order to be able to live like him. The
bible says, 2 Corinthians 5:17(Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a
new creature: old things are passed away; and all things are become new).
New birth empowers the believer to be transformed by renewing of their mind,
you are empowered to stay away from the things of the world and focus on the
things of God. The transformation starts from your mind being renewed and it
will begin to reflect in your action and your thinking. The word of God is
Spirit and life, the spirit of the Lord in us is what makes us a replica of
God. The word of God is what activates the spirit of God in us into action if
not it will remain dormant and make us think that salvation is not what we were
told it was. We are destined to move from glory to glory as long as we continue
looking up to Him through the mirror of His word. The word of God is our mirror
and doing what the word says is what is going to change our levels and
transform us into the perfect image of God; from glory to glory (James
1:23-25). Friends; say no to stagnation; your new height is guaranteed
in Jesus name. If you are to be transformed into the perfect image of God; that
means you need to be his daughter or son and the only way you can do that is to
accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior because you cannot be a replica of
someone else's father.
Lord
Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me
my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan
to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and savior. Now I
know I am Born Again, Amen.
