God Can Transform You by kpakpandoN(m): 6:19am On Feb 19, 2023 |
When you look at the story of Saul of Tarsus who later became known as Paul the Apostle, he himself said in 1 Timothy 1:15: This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. In 2 Corinthians 11:5 he however, said: For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. God moved him from being the chief of sinners all the way to being compared to the very chiefest of Apostles. Today’s message is primarily for someone who has been struggling with one sin or the other; God can transform you so greatly that you would become one of the saints of your generation. A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh. And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them. Ezekiel 36:26-27 What you need for that transformation to take place is to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Once the Holy Spirit is within you, you will become a whole new person. Study your Bible regularly; His sanctification power is in the word (John 17:17), spend time beholding the face of the Lord by praying without ceasing and meditating on the word of God. 2 Corinthians 3:18 says: 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. If you do all these things consistently, you will soon discover that those sins that so easily beset you (Hebrews 12:1) will become history. Written by Pastor E.A. Adeboye. |

I've always wondered if Paul could have been converted by way of conviction instead of the force god used. |
