The Power of a Renewed Mind
Bagong Cristiano si Mitch. Madalas na nagha-hang out ang workmates niya sa bar kung saan babad sila sa activities and music with messages that sound unwholesome. Madalas nilang hinahatak si Mitch. Feeling niya tuloy napapalayo siya sa kalooban ng Diyos.
We cannot deny na may system sa mundong ito na iba sa will ni God (Juan 7:7). May mga paniniwala at activities na maaaring maglayo sa atin sa Diyos. Angat din masyado sa social media ang individualism at personal autonomy. Dahil dito, may possibility na malagay ang isang Cristiano sa delikadong sitwasyon. Sinabi ni Apostle Paul na we are not to conform to the ungodly patterns and desires of this world; instead, we are to be changed by knowing God’s will (Romans 12:2).
Mahirap nating malaman ang perfect will ng Diyos sa atin at hindi natin mararanasan ang tunay na transformation mula sa Kanya kung “feelings” lang ang focus natin sa paggawa ng mga bagay imbes na “renewing our mind” (Romans 12:2). The battle between fitting in with the world and transformation happens in our mind. It’s not about whether we feel like doing something or not, but doing all things according to what the Bible says God’s will is.
When we spend more time with God, study his Words daily, and obey Him, inner transformation takes place through the work of the Holy Spirit. The inner change becomes visible to others on the outside, showing them how our lives conform with God’s good, acceptable, and perfect will.
LET’S PRAY
Guide us, Father, to renew our minds daily through your Word. Transform us from within and exhibit your good, acceptable, and perfect will to the world. Grant us the strength to put your instructions above our emotions. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
