“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
Romans 12:2 KJV
Paul is explaining to us to stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around us, but to be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how we think. This will empower us to discern God’s will as we live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in His eyes. Our greatest enemy is not the devil, but an unrenewed mind. It is only by abiding in the Word that our mind is renewed, we are designed in this way! As we dwell in Scripture, revelation comes to know God’s perfect will for us. That’s when we walk in the Spirit and do not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. If we live after the flesh, we shall die: but if we through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, we shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Let’s renew our mind by abiding in the Word, being perfected in the will of God to be mature sons of God as we are led by the Holy Spirit. Hallelujah!
