Deformed or Transformed

When you don’t feel right it’s time to fight. You’re already blessed and abundantly free but you have an enemy – and he doesn’t want you to actually live free. He comes to deceive and attack what you believe, intending to make your liberty more of a concept than a reality. Then you hypothesize to be free but how do you actually feel and what do you see?

Some days are easier than others but EVERYDAY THERE WILL BE A FIGHT - a fight to stand for what’s right, not according to man, but what’s right in God’s sight.

And what’s right? What’s right is to fight and not accept plight! To live in the love of the Lord by the power of His might. To have perfect peace and joy and be strong to obey - the time’s always now, and today is the day.

Live in health and prosperity and have assurance of life because you been redeemed from the curse and delivered from strife.

You’re already blessed, but it’s not automatic, you have fight to live in and not become static. For the enemy’s attack is systematic, to wear you down and make life traumatic and to put you in bondage with rules bureaucratic.

So now the question is, “What will you do?” Will you fight for what’s yours, or let the world have – it’s way with you?

Rom 12:2
2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
NKJV

Rom 12:2
2 Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.
MES

Rom 12:2
2 Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude]…
AMP

Conformation to the image of the world is imitation of degradation to deformation, but conformation to the image of the Lord is revelation to transformation and liberation - and to be one with the Almighty - glorification.

27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
