The Bible fervently talks about the need of being transformed while believers are taken to the next level of their faith. It is imperative to understand at the same time that the minds of the believers are renewed constantly towards the righteousness of God, as they were connected from inside with the spirit to fulfill the written word of God, which says, “The saints are led by the spirit”.
It is written in Ephesians 4:17-24, NIV-Bible; “So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to the hardening of their hearts. Having lost all sensitivity, they have given themselves over to sensuality so as to indulge in every kind of impurity, and they are full of greed. That, however, is not the way of life you learned when you heard about Christ and were taught in him in accordance with the truth that is in Jesus. You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.”
Therefore, live a life that is right and acceptable to the Lord. And surely, God will help you to do that while it is written in Philippians 2:13; “for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose”. In short – believers are enjoying the holy living with the Lord, while they are prosperous in every minute of their lives. Furthermore, if we believe and trust in the Lord completely, living righteous to the standards is not as difficult as many thought – and surely, we will able to discern every situation, to reject the evil for the glory of the Lord. Amen
