Daily Devotion: Romans 12:2
“Do not conform yourselves to the standards of this world, but let God transform you inwardly by a complete change of your mind. Then you will be able to know the will of God — what is good and is pleasing to him and is perfect.” GNB
When you accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour you become a new person. Through Him you receive forgiveness of sins and a renewal of spirit. Everything changes, including your actions, thoughts, hopes and dreams; you’ve been accepted as a child of God.
This means that you should no longer dwell on things of this world and focus on that which can uplift and enrich your soul, preparing you for an eternity in the holy presence of the Lord. As mere humans, we often fail at this. We constantly rethink the past, we get anxious because we have not done or said things that we ought to have OR we worry about that which have transpired in our lives. We worry about our mistakes and often we try, by ourselves, to correct it only to make a bigger mess of things.
We also concern ourselves with the future and make up tall tales of disastrous events. While we are so worried about everything, the present passes us by and we forget that we’ve already been saved, that we have Someone who will look after us no matter what. We should therefore work harder at trying to change our attitude and fill our souls with hope and faith. Look what Paul said:
Ephesians 4:22-24: “So get rid of your old self, which made you live as you used to – the old self that was being destroyed by its deceitful desires. Your hearts and minds must be made completely new, and you must put on a new self, which is created in God’s likeness and reveals itself in the true life that is upright and holy.” GNB
Philippians 3:13: “…the one thing I do, however, is to forget what is behind me and do my best to reach what is ahead.” GNB
Rest assured, though, that because you’ve been saved, God will help you, forgive you for your weaknesses and uplift you in your struggle. He promised us that, if we have be washed in the blood of the Lamb, we will become His family and He will never forsake us.
Hebrews 13:5: “I will never leave you; I will never abandon you.” GNB
