The Signature Of God: Transformation (Sunday)

Ephesians 2:10 NLT

For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. 

• To be “in Christ” is to be in .

2 Corinthians 5:17 NKJV

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 

• God  me just as I am but also too much to  me that way. 

John 1:14 NIV

The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. 

• If I’m not changing, I  really  God.

1 John 2:4-6 NIV

Whoever says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person. But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did. 

Three Ways to Let God Transform You 

1. Invite Jesus to begin transforming you . 

1 John 1:9 GWT

God is faithful and reliable. If we confess our sins, he forgives them and cleanses us from everything we’ve done wrong.

2. Give God  to change anything He wants to. 

Romans 12:2 TPT

Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but 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.

Philippians 2:13 NLT

For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. 

3. Consistently  with people who will help you on the journey.

Hebrews 10:24-25 NLT

Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.
